Saturday morning WOD

Deck of Cards

Great to see all the smiling faces this morning. It is great to see y'all ready for action. The intensity level was right on this morning. See y'all Monday morning at 10. Have a great memorial day week. Remember to give thanks to the ones who have served and whom are serving in the US military. Without them we would not be able to enjoy the freedoms we now have.

Awesome job this morning. All of ya'll were really pushing it. Being familiar with all the exercises really helps during the workouts. It will take a few times of trying and then you will know the movement. Once the movement is learned, then you can start push yourself a bit more. Being apart of a class really helps in this area. Ya'll that have been with us for the past few months, your efforts are really beginning to show. Ya'll that are new to the box, it won't be long before ya'll begin to see the benefits of your labor. Have a great weekend.
