The big question out there this week is who has their Christmas decorations up and who does not?

There are those people who have been waiting since Labour Day to get their decorations out on their house and those people who will wait until December 24th to cut down their tree! Which type are you?

We are looking at dates currently to host our annual 782 Christmas party here at the gym. (no pullups allowed)

Hope everyone is having a great week. Just a reminder that this statement is always true.

discipline > motivation

You will not always be motivated to train, to eat healthy, to go to bed on time, but through habits, self awareness, and some discipline you will be able to create a routine or lifestyle where you can continue to move forward even when the mood does not strike you quite right.

Hope you enjoyed the strength work today.

You will see a shift in the training over the next two months as we build strength, balance, and mobility. We will still hit all those energy systems and breathe heavy and work on skills, but now that the open has finished our big focus will be on increasing strength and building a strong foundation. You will notice that for 2-3 days a week there will be either base strength programmed or accessory strength added to the workout. This strength work that should be done with the same intensity as our class conditioning. Build a solid foundation and build the awareness in your body to be bulletproof. The main goal here is to get strong and be safe while doing so.

For our competition class our focus will still be on our Olympic Lifting and going back to basics with low loads and percentages and working on the details of each movement. Same goes with the gymnastics work. We want you to build some capacity and overall volume on each of the high skilled movements such as handstand walking, muscle ups, strict handstand pushups, etc. Everyone is welcome to competition whether or not they are preparing for a competition. Come one, come all.
