She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellent them all. Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.  
-Proverbs 31:27-30

Only God Himself fully appreciates the influence of a Christian mother in the molding of character in her children.
Billy Graham

The happiest people don’t have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything. Thankful. Grateful. Blessed.

Movement standards covered as a group before each workout starts. If you aren’t sure about the workout or a movement please be patient we will always cover the movement standards before the workout starts. Don’t get ahead of us…we will not start the workout until everyone knows what we are doing. Thank you!

RX Movement Standards: Form. Form. Form! Train Hard/Train Heavy/Train Smart.
Go as fast as you can without getting sloppy. Do you want to have the fastest time on the board with the sloppiest form? Scale based on your strength/fitness level/level of motivation. Skill Work. Skill Work. Skill Work.

RX – Full ROM. Form. Form. Form First. Proper form is more important than your ego at 864.

RX – Full ROM. Form – KB PP Load – HEAVY! AHAP. Squats – use same KB that you used for press. A Squat above Parallel is NOT a Squat!
