Our program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. Our specialty is not specializing.

The program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience. We scale load and intensity; we don’t change programs.

The needs of Olympic athletes and the average Joe differ by degree not kind. Our nation’s military, triathletes, firefighters, housewives (and students like you) have found their best fitness from the same regimen.

Come on by the weight room below SC1 and check us out. All you need are some gym clothes and a willingness to step outside your comfort zone and push yourself!

Wednesday - "Might As Well Jump. Jump!"

Lauren is getting scurry


LAUREN SCHNEIDER 100 PUSH-UP CHALLENGE:
Alright, so Lauren Schneider showed this to me and I think it's a great idea so I thought we'd start our workouts with this for the next 6 weeks.  The goal is to get to 100 consecutive push-ups.  Don't scoff!  It's scaled to everyone's abilities and it's an attainable goal for us all.  And no matter what, we'll all improve our form and strength.


Initial Test:
- push-ups to failure


Good form push-ups only!  Chest (not stomach) touches the ground, and arms fully extend at the top.  It's better to do less with proper form than more with improper form.


This initial test will let us know what category we all fit into and how we will follow the program.  I will keep track of everyone's progress and cue you up on where you need to be.
