JANUARY SCHEDULE
Mark your calendar for these important dates in January!
- Jan 3 – Stretching & Mobility with Coach Mark, 6:00-6:30pm
- Jan 3 – Goal setting session 4:30-7:30pm. This Thursday during Make Up Night, take some time to write down your 2013 goals and post them to our wall! John and Nikki will be available to help answer questions and guide you in your goal selection. We generally recommend that each athlete set a few “easy” goals, a few “target” goals, and a few “stretch” goals. The big hitters are gymnastics movements (pull ups, rope climbs, muscle ups, HSPU), running and rowing, double unders, benchmark workouts (Baseline, Fran), and any lifts (deadlift, back squat, clean, etc). Your goals should be specific and measurable. Start thinking about your goals now!
