November is here!  Let’s look ahead at what’s on tap here at the gym. Monthly Focus:  This month we’re getting after everyone’s favorite pulling movement – the Power Clean!  We’ll be hitting this movement from all angles, gang.  3 position cleans, hang cleans, and even split cleans, well not split cleans, those get a little sketchy.  We’ll pair that up with something we can all use work on – the Handstand Push-up.  Progressing these movements will be a lot of fun, and they’ll come into play with this month’s benchmark workouts too! With “Power Hour”, and the official start of the Holiday season being here we’ve modified this micro-cycle a tad.  This cycle will run from November 7th through December 5th.  Power Clean work – alternating Monday and Wednesdays Handstand Push-ups – Alternating Wednesday and Fridays Benchmarks for the month “Breaking Bad” – 11/4 Power Hour – 11/12 – What’s...

Order up some Pumpkin lattes, bust out the hoodies and get ready for a chill in the air!  October is here. Monthly Focus: October brings us an all-new micro cycle – get hype!!! We’ll be drilling down these next four weeks on Bench Press and Toes to Bar.  With the bench press, we’ll bring a key horizontal pressing movement to the forefront.  This movement transfers into push-ups, dips, and handstand work, as well as builds tremendous stability for all overhead barbell lifts.  This strength element will certainly come into play in this month’s three shoulder intensive benchmarks too. Toes to bar will be our skill focus.  We’ll aim to increase capacity here, as well as overall efficiency in what seems to be everyone’s favorite gymnastics move. On Alternating Monday’s and Wednesdays in the month, we’ll be hitting the bench press.  Don’t miss out, these are more than glorified pump sessions....
