Jenna is excited for #podiumweek! YOU GOT THIS! We can't wait to see how many of you set PRs today! Today is the first day of our bi-annual Fitness Testing Week and it's also the first day of #podiumweek. Podium Week is also about recognizing and celebrating your progress. It will help our community see what REALLY goes on at a CrossFit gym. And it flood the internet with positive images of success, we could all use more positive images on FB and IG right? Before the workout, your coach will ask you which podium you’ll aim for. For example in today's workout it could be one or all of the three lifts and/or it could be your overall total. So, give some thought as to what you want to achieve today. After the workout list your PRs and #podiumweek on a small whoteboard and your coach will take a creative picture of you holding it up and smiling. All of the #podiumweek photos will be uploaded into an album on our Facebook page. Let's have some fun and show everyone how awesome you are!
