It’s here! The first of three level method assessment seasons starts this week! I can’t wait to see all of the upgrades! …and the downgrades. Let me talk about that briefly… yes, you can level down and that’s important to see for both you and your coaches. That lets us know there’s a problem somewhere and we have to find out why or what we can change to get back toward progress. Did you have an injury setback? Do you need 1-on-1 personal training? Maybe some supplemental work after class would fill in that blank? It’s important, let it happen; it’s not a failure. It’s simply a barometer of where you’re at on that particular day.
STRATEGY FOR THIS WEEK - LOTS of deadlifts planned between Monday and Wednesday. If you’re not so concerned with your deadlift level, perhaps you save yourself a little bit for Wednesday… or vice versa. Don’t work to a true 1RM, then do the kettlebell test, then plan to do LB/UB Endurance Wednesday; it won’t end well and you won’t perform to your true ability. Play it smart, ask your trainers!
800g leaderboard update! Kayla’s team is absolutely smashing it; sitting about 100 points ahead of the second place team! Great job! That’s impressive. In 2nd place, Sam’s Team (1058) overtook Christian’s “Get Huge,” team as their numbers fell off (1022). Ben’s team is scratching out every point but still coming up short at 1004. Hopefully by now all of you are experiencing better energy levels, less soreness, and less bad calorie intake!
If you didn’t see the email the other day, we now have the ability to direct withdraw from bank accounts and it saves us a good chunk of change. If you don’t mind switching to that method, we’d really appreciate it. Just ask Ben to send you the activation email and you’ll be set!
Also, remember to download the Member’s portal app from PushPress to reserve your spot for classes. Open gym will require a reservation, otherwise we’ll close up and head home. Don’t show up at 6:45 without a reservation! Please don’t. It’ll make me feel bad. :)
Here’s the plan for the week!
