We present 3 versions of this classic challenge, including the orignial form. As with all of our daily workouts, we will title them according to the approaches we describe at the top of this web page.

We will open the doors at 8:30am, and try to start the WOD directly at 9am. Bring a friend and workout together. 

We will also have an "Open Gym" time from 9am-12pm. That means you can come in and lift, or have some play time in that time frame. We will be closed after that until Tuesday, May 28th, when we start right back up, bright and early.

If anyone would like to start up the grill, and cook some dogs, or enjoy some brews. Message Jeremiah, and we'll make it happen. Let's have some fun!

The first point of being "functional" is to employ an integrated approach to your fitness, as opposed to an isolated one. Compound movements such as a squat, a lift, a carry, or press are examples of basic functional movement. They are especially useful if they are conducted on multiple planes of motion. Any movement can be functional when it comes down to it. Functional or not functional isn't really the primary question we need to ask. The real question we should ask about the program we are following is if the particular movements or exercise I am working on is functional relative to my training goals. This of course, begs the question...What do you want from your fitness? Enter our 3 approach format to our overall program: Life, Sport, and Competitor. See the descriptions at the top of this page for details on each approach.

Spend some time really thinking about what you want from your fitness. Be as specific as possible. Are you working against yourself in other ways throughout the day? Is the training you do on a daily basis effective toward those goals? Talk to Jeremiah and Jon, if you have any questions. We will be glad to add, subtract, and get you on a railroad track toward your goals. 

To further illustrate how "function" plays into our daily workout, I've added some general discriptions in parentheses. Hope you find these insights helpful. Definitions to these skills can be found HERE, on page 4.
