Workout of the Day
STRENGTH
E2MOM x 8 Progressive Sets

Notes
Try to add a little weight each set and work up to a technically sound single on the power snatch today. If you’re going a bit lighter, you can perform doubles every minute instead of singles.
Coaching Focus: The three pulls of the snatch

Tomorrow: FREE NUTRITION SEMINAR!
BODY IMAGE — THE WHAT, WHERE, WHY AND HOW?
Join CFSBKer and Registered Dietitian Laura Geraty as she presents a free nutrition seminar for the CFSBK community.
To be human is to experience body image – the thoughts and feelings we have about our bodies. In this lunchtime webinar, we’ll discuss the what, where, when and how:
- What body image is,
- Where our body images come from,
- When body image can become more than just annoying, and
- How we can take care of ourselves in a world that has taught us to fear, or even hate, our bodies.
Above all else, what I want you to walk away knowing is that you are not alone if you struggle with body image. And while there are strategies for lessening the discomfort of body image distress, the ultimate solution lies outside of us as individuals. It is to dismantle the culture that taught us to fear our bodies in the first place. This is big, hard topic, but an important one.
When: Wednesday, April 17 at noon.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. Laura will send out a recording to all who registered shortly after the seminar is over so no worries if you can’t make it live.
