“The true masters are still on the field when the fun ends.” — Reinhold Messner
Thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate the 4th of July at CFK! We had a blast!
We hope everyone has also gotten in their SunzOut GunzOut challenge for the week! For the next week you still have your challenges from week 1, plus:
Nutrition: Eat your greens! Make sure to get a serving, 2 fists, of healthy vegetables at each meal!
Fitness:
Novice – Accumulate 100 sit-ups
Rx – Accumulate 150 sit-ups
Rx+ – Accumulate 125 toes to bar
Don’t try and do these all in one day! Get them done throughout the week! As with all the coming fitness challenges, make sure to go for quality. Stop before bad reps. We want you to practice perfect reps and get the most out of it that you can, not just fumbling through.
