Assessment week success!

40 INDIVIDUAL LEVELS

The category assessments this cycle were Squat Endurance and Lactic Tolerance and we saw 40 individual levels established or improved! Holy crap! That’s a really big number and considering the tests we’re talking about, that’s even more impressive. Well done to everyone who challenged themselves whether you leveled up or not. You did something supremely difficult and you should be proud of yourself for that.

THE OPEN IS THIS FRIDAY!

It’s 3 weeks long, 3 different challenges, on the next 3 Fridays… starting Feb 16. You don’t haveeeee to do them on Friday, but they DO have to be done by Monday at 6pm. If you need special arrangements, talk with a coach and let’s get a plan together.

EVERYONE CAN PLAY. All levels, yellow-black will have a workout catered to those skill levels.

TRAINING

Assessments FOR The next cycle are:

deadlift & running

E DISCIPLINE IS: POWERLIFTING

SYSTEM: VENTILATION

VIRTUOSITY: BODYWEIGHT

Our programming is designed to bring a broad and inclusive general physical preparedness to everyone participating consistently at The Standard. That means we have to work in cycles where we focus on certain implements (KB,DB,barbell,etc), energy systems (heavy breathing vs muscular burn), virtuosity (proficiency of a specific skill), and E discipline (neurological learning typically with weights). If we tried to do them all throughout the year, all the time, we would get less progress across the timeline, so we break it up so we can get a specific adaptation. Just in case you wanted some nerd stuff in your blogs. :)
