In an effort to make classes run a little smoother and finish on time, we're going to formally partition sessions into three basic sections:

Warm-up/Soft Tissue 10-12 minutes
Max Effort 25-30 minutes
Metabolic Conditioning/Accessory work 15-20 minutes

In essence, it will be very similar to the way classes have been running with the exception that everyone will have a better understanding of how long they have to complete a particular section.  Athletes are still encouraged to either come early or stay late as they please.  Take advantage of open gym hours for additional soft tissue work, skill development or just to socialize!
