I thought we did an incredible job going overhead on the strict press today! We stayed super-tight, drove the bar straight up, and powered our core forward.Our core strength is through the roof – please tell me that your abs are tight, strong, and (eh hem) in summer shape…cause I see the improvement in the first 2, if the 3rd is in question we need to step up the zone.As great as a job we did on

I have a certain time of the day when I get real hungryA simple strategy for me is to eat something tasty, then have some dig in and munch food, followed by a change of taste.I cook some (or have it pre-cooked) 93% lean beef in diced tomatoes (canned with onions and garlic) and add in a few more spices on my own...this is my tasty part.When I'm hungry, I want VOLUME...Volume could come from way

Monday was a sneaky little circuit that got difficult in a hurry...It was also a sneaky little plot to get a few of you to up that pullup volume!Here is what you did based on rounds:11 rounds = 66 pullups and burpees!12 = 7813 = 9114 = 10515 = 120While not many of you said it was Fun, I thought it was!Maybe next time we'll work down from 15!Great effort...

Take a good look at todays pictures it might help you with your strict press form. Note Elbow and torso positions. The goal is to get those elbows under the bar!
