Hope that everyone had a great Canada Day!
Don’t forget that we have our first early morning (7:00am) class starting today!
3 Reason why you should workout in the morning:
- Wake up the brain and be ready for the day! This will help you to organize your thoughts and make a mental list of what you need and want to accomplish that day.
- Get the workout in early before something comes up in the afternoon that might prevent you from getting your workout in.
- Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and a lot of people still skip it! Sometimes people find it hard to workout on an empty stomach so eat a light breakfast beforehand. By working out in the morning not only are you encouraging yourself to eat breakfast, you are also jump starting your metabolism and burning more calories throughout the day than you would if you skipped breakfast and worked out in the afternoon.

The early-bird class went FABULOUSLY today! It was great. Just think how much you can accomplish before 8 a.m.!
Great WOD, those overhead walking lunges are brutal!

Nice work with the 7am wod Bones and Donald! Mtrain how’s the back??
Awesome work this morning – getting it all done before work is great.
Shannon, excellent coaching BTW!
Back is good, coach. Marco and I did a sweet outdoor WOD yesterday at the greatest playground in the world! I have to make sure the hammies and glutes are nice and loosy goosy before I WOD. Will make sure to have a proper warm up today.
