“Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren’t used to an environment where excellence is expected.”

-Steve Jobs


Supplement Spotlight: D-Aspartic Acid

This supplement triggers the brain to increase the body’s natural production and transportation of testosterone, and luteinizing hormone (LH). According to recent studies, T levels in men have drastically declined over the past decade while women experiencing ovarian and other reproductive issues are on the rise. This could be due to the very flawed average American diet. D- Aspartic Acid can be used to increase muscle mass, strength, definition, and promote health of the reproductive system. Guys don’t be D-ficient… Try D-Aspartic Acid.

Weekly WODs:

 

Monday – PUSH. PULL.

It’s Re-test week, and we’ll kick it off with a 1RM Push press, followed by “PUSH. PULL.”! We last performed this bad boy on May 30, so start the week off by ringing that PR bell!

 

Tuesday – 5 Months ’til Beach Season!

Lots of strict gymnastics work that will leave your biceps and triceps screaming for mercy! While you may have trouble shampooing your hair after this one, your tank top will be appreciative.

 

Wednesday – Ski-WAT Day!

Week 3 of our current cycle, plus another short, UNCOMFORTABLE benchmark to re-test in “SPEED DEMON”!

 

Thursday – Full Sixty

We’ll move pretty much the whole hour today with a longer warm-up, a 15:00 EMOM, plus a finisher. Weighted planks, weighted step-ups, weighted sit-ups, and double-unders. Yikes!

 

Friday  – CALIFORNIA LOVE

Oh yes, our THIRD benchmark re-test of the week on RED Friday! Bring your big girl pants… and knee sleeves, weight belts, headbands, wrist bands, lifters, and RED SHIRTS! It’s gonna go DOWN!
