Hey Team,
So I was updating the leaderboard today and, like always, it never ceases to amaze me what PR’s people put up and on such a regular basis! Our weekly PR board is almost always full of people achieving personal bests, which is so great to see.
It got me thinking though about what my favorite PR has been, and I thought I would turn the question on you guys. Is there one (or two) PR’s that you have hit that mean something extra special to you? Perhaps conquering a skill or lifting a weight you never thought possible?
Let us know in the comments below!

Be sure to watch our boy Scoots tonight on A-Channel at 5:45pm or 11:15pm.
Today’s Workout
Buy-in: Heavy Russian Kettlebell Swings – 4 x 12
- The russian swing is only to shoulder height and the focus is on hip “pop”
- Take 2 warm up sets to the weight you would use in a typical workout
- Then perform 4 sets at a heavier weight than you would usually use
- Focus on the arms as “hooks” to the weight
WOD: “Skywalker”
This is a “station” workout and you’ll be rotating through each on a timer. Your goal is to execute as many quality repetitions as possible while not pushing to a high level of fatigue as this is a skill based workout and will not have a score attached to it (i.e. REST as NEEDED!).
- 45 sec at each station, 45 sec rest between
- 4 x through full circuit (24 mins)
- Wall Walks (walk up into a handstand and back down – work with a spotter if this is your first time!)
- Toes to bar
- Turkish Get-Ups
- Pistol Squats
Zone 2 – scale wall walks to inchworms (fwd,bckwd) with feet at base of wall, scale all other movements as needed
Zone 1 – scale as needed
Cash-Out: Double under practice – go for a new PR!
