Summer Schedule

With this 5-3-1 cycle complete, I’m going to begin meeting again outside on at least one morning per week. Monday will be a deload day - foam rolling and mobility work. Wednesday morning will be outside with, hopefully, the normal crew and maybe a few extra.

In the meantime, everyone have a Happy Father’s Day. Enjoy being a father, if you are one. Call or visit your father, if you have one. If none of that applies to you, have a good weekend regardless.
