Yoooouuu Did it!!

The Open is over!
Well, there might be a few of you doing the workout Monday morning, but by and large we made it! Congrats if it’s your first one, and bravo if it’s your 14th 🙂 Sad things: no more gymnastics days on Thursdays, it’ll be an actual workout (yay!!). Happy things: no more crazy schedule stuff (Friday’s are back on!), and silly rules about where to stand when 3,2,1… GO! happens, and less stress about no-reps and what’s in the workout 🙂 I sincerely hope you enjoyed the last 3 weeks though. It’s a great time to refocus, see where you stack up, take a workout a little bit more seriously, and think about recovery in a way that helps. Personally I’m reaffirmed that my life-long quest to deal with Thrusters is worthy, I hope you have something similar that you feel convicted of, and hopefully there’s some light amidst all this: good example of this is Tim (from Lynnwood) getting his LIFETIME first pull-up, and then getting like 6 more! So cool 🙂

Spring Break!
Remember April 1-6 the gyms will be closed. We’ve been doing this for some years now, and it’s really a wonderful thing: the gym needs to be cleaned (obvs) but more importantly it’s a time to go through things with a fine toothed comb and get them back to where they should be. My punch list is never ending, and you all might not really see the difference, but I do 🙂 Enjoy the week off, hopefully you’ve already got plans and are happily going camping or somewhere more exotic. If you’re worried about getting out of shape in a week, all I can say is DONT. We smash you guys 50 weeks a year, several hundred workouts, give yourself a little credit and more grace, and recognize that a week off here and there is probably a really good thing (Kim, don’t let Synnove read that last sentence) and be ready to get in the 8th of April ready to rock 🙂
