Last week was practice in proper scaling. Hopefully we have all learned that not doing Rx is OK. We should continue to make choices that challenge us to get stronger by pushing the weight a little bit and going faster, but only after we have correct technique down! We are going to continue to practice…

I’m posting early so I can remind everyone that the gym will be closed on Monday. Have a Happy Labor Day. Enjoy your weekend. The gym will be open Tuesday – Saturday so there are still 5 days to work out. I’ve also been told to take it easy on the shoulders this week. Is…
