Happy Easter Sunday gym fam, we hope everyone has been having a great day.
Pickleball Sunday is back, next Sunday from 1-3pm! We hope to you guys there.
NCFIT April Focus: We got through March in one piece, but man, did it have a whole host of fitness benchmarks for us! We started the month off by finishing the final two weeks of the CF Open. Hopefully, everyone was able to throw down and get a little better from last year!
April is going to kick off our next strength cycle, and itβs all about VOLUME! We are going to be working higher rep strength sets for the Overhead/ Front Squat + Bench Press. This strength cycle will culminate with a 3-Rep Heavy attempt to see how much volume work has paid off.
Some other highlights include our April benchmark: The Filthy Fifty, a new Hero Workout, a return of the benchmark Ava, and our retest of dun dun dunnnn, Death Row.
Letβs start the month off strong and get after it! Workouts for the Week:
