Sleep is one of the most underrated tools to improve performance and recovery. It is so important that early man still slept even though they did not have the secure environment of houses, locks, and security systems.

We often see accessory work programmed consisting of trunk work, mobility, prehab/rehab, and even bodybuilding. Is this just to fill the hour, or is it important? Of course it is, and let me explain why! The fact that it happens to be at the end of the workout does not mean it is less important. […]

The law of individuality tells us we are all the same, but we are all different. We are all made of blood and tissue but how we approach things or respond is individual. Everyone will respond differently based on genetics, stress load, nutrition, and recovery. However, there are some general things that you can focus […]

Started with 5 rounds + 6 push ups and ended with 4 rounds + 6 push ups, Rx’d.
This was one of the very first WODs I did and hadn’t performed it again since then, so it was nice to see the improvements. Think that first time was 3+ rounds each time with 95#.

Awesome stuff Mike. Great scores there.
I decided to do this one heavy at 155. First round was 5 plus 2 cleans, dropped down to 4 even in round three, and then 4 plus a clean in the last two rounds.

Nice to grind this one out with Rob and Ryan 🙂
I got 4 full cycles and some change on each round… Dropped off a lot on the last round though- weight fell off the bar. Those squats burneddddd after the week of WODs we’ve had! Good stuff!
Oh yah- and I love STEPH DO!
Plus did lots of extra work with Ryan– I’ll be feeling that tomorrow.
