Definitely a tricky and tough little movement. It was awesome to see so many people in, we had big classes, and people were really pushing each other. It’s going to be a scorcher tomorrow, drink that aqua. Cheers.

You guys are all doing so awesome, getting stronger, fitter, faster, etc. A number of you hit what was your 1RM max on the back squat a couple of months ago for multiple reps, congratulations on the good work. Hope everyone enjoyed the lateral box jumps, something different, something to make those muscles and that brain work a little differently. See you tomorrow. Cheers.
