Monday Roy and Vic your prayers have been heard. Just kidding, I do really like having deadlifts as a strength movement. I think they provide some much needed posterior chain development. If you’re someone who doesn’t like to take as much rest during your lifting, stick with the every minute format. If you want to […]
Monday Properly functioning scapula are imperative to have properly functioning shoulders. For as much shoulder and scapula based movements we do in CrossFit, we rarely take the time to strengthen and develop our scapula. Over the course of the next six weeks we will be performing exercises that will strengthen your scapula and better prepare your […]
Monday If you’re going advanced you’ll still be doing the every 90 second format but you’ll do 5 sets of 2 reps per interval, and then switch over to one rep for the last five sets. For the finisher you ideally want to be doing the wall balls unbroken or as close to it as […]
Hey Sweat Shoppers! I will be holding the first Mobility class this Sunday at 11 am at the Sweat Shop. My intention with this class is to give you all an opportunity to work on your mobility but also to educate you, and give you tools that you can have at your disposal for your […]

These grunt work sessions are a great way for you all to try some different movements out! I would encourage you to try something new and if you don’t […]
Monday For the Squats you will be ascending. If you do find a very challenging weight, don’t force yourself to go up if it means you’ll fail the set. Stick with that weight or go back down to ensure you make all your sets! For the finisher the goal is for it to be shorter […]
Monday The deadlift weight should be something that is pretty light for you. You should ideally be going unbroken on your deadlifts or at least very close to it. This one should be a quick burner! A1.) Back Squat 4-4-4-4-4 *ascending* A2.) Single arm Dumbbell Row 3x 10 ea side B.) 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 Deadlift 135/95 (adv […]
Monday Everyone will be doing two reps on the Emom today. I want to make sure everyone is getting enough volume on the olympic lifts. I believe thats the best way to make improvement on them. For the finisher, select a weight you would be confident in going unbroken on for the barbell movement. Keeping […]
