Calendar for the rest of the year!
We have a number of really great things happening over the last few months of the year and we wanted to get them announced as soon as possible so you guys can make plans accordingly. ☺️
BRING-A-FRIEND WEEK is the biggest one to note. We’ve never done this before and it’s a great opportunity to get your friends to experience what we do alongside YOU. We’re planning partner workouts (don’t worry… you individuals are still going to get your sweaty old fitness in, trust me) in a wide variety of ways; all leveled out how we typically do. You can bring as many people as you like, as often as they’d like, all week.
HERE IS THE LINK FOR THEM TO SIGN UP
FAIR FIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!! Every year we host an in-house competition and before you tap out and move on… it’s levels oriented. We crown a champ in Orange+ categories, so everyone gets to play! Every Friday we’ll be working through some more-challenging-than-normal workouts and see if we can accumulate more points than you friends. It’s a great challenge and a good time. Plan to participate! Preferably in the afternoon classes so we can all go get food afterward and stuff.
HABITAT FOR HUMANITY PROJECT: Amanda got in touch with the folks at Habitat to arrange for us to send a group of people out and volunteer our time to a deserving family in need. Slots are filling up quick, so touch base with her if you want to participate!
IN-HOUSE UPDATES
LEVEL UPS!!
TRAINING CYCLES
category focuses are: FRONT SQUAT + FLEXIBILITY + KETTLEBELL
Our program 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. :)
GOOGLE REVIEWS
OK, we really try to resist asking for you to do things to help us, but I can’t do the lifting on my own on this one… It would be really helpful if you’d take a few moments to leave a 5-star review on google. It helps with our ranking when people search for gyms/crossfit/etc. …and it’s free. :) HELP!
