30 Clean and Jerks for time
135, 85 or an otherwise appropriate weight.

Beginners who were not confident with the clean and jerk worked on the movement with a PVC and light weight. Technique before intensity.

Skills:
After class we had "open training" for an hour so the athletes could work on whatever skills they wanted to develop.

Remember that tomorrow night is our first Monday night class at 7pm. All are welcome to attend free of charge!

Anyone interested in the upcoming Foundations program should email David so that we can save your slot and workshop what days and times will work best for the group. The current time (Sundays at 11am) will be converted into a second "Beginner" Group class. A Beginner Group Class is appropriate for the athlete who has a general understanding of the CF movement pool but still needs to develop their technique before amping up the intensity.

Starting next week there will a new Monday Group Class at 7pm! To celebrate the addition we are going to comp the first class (3/17) for everyone! Hurray free stuff!

As wonderful as it has been to do planks on the wooden floor, we are going to have rubber flooring by the end of the week! Please thank Eric (the Lyceum Director) for picking it up from Connecticut. (then bug him about the pull-up bar!)
