Today, few Americans are aware of the spiritual epidemic that wiped out the land of our Christian forefathers. Even fewer are aware that the same epidemic has reached our own shores, spreading like a virus.

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 – RX KB Load = 32kg./24kg. UB Russians Swings. Burpees must be FULL ROM if RX. No chicken neck burpees. Jump must clear the ground and include a clap with FULLY extended arms overhead (not behind the head – this is SCALED.) Doing movements with proper form might take a second longer but it keeps it Legit!
