Though we were in our 40's, if we knew then what we know now...but isn't it always that way?

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image="6570" img_size="large"][vc_column_text]Our metcon-biased Friday once again starts with Ed beating up on everyone that their back-rack position needs work: once again, we're back squatting from the racks. The intensity begins with some Tabata DL's with odd objection, followed by a sweet barbell complex. Not for time, but for load....

The rep scheme's today will slow us down a bit and make this section take a little longer than usual. We'll hit some mandatory core...
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Risk and Reward That's been a hot topic lately. It's why our Legends Athletes progress so well, why we have such retention, and why this type of community builds itself.

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]TGIF! We warm up with a light barbell or PVC in specific work/rest intervals. We hip hinge, we squat, we "jump"-ish, and we press overhead. We are SERIOUSLY warmed up after all of that. Fridays are conditioning days. Heart rates are a little higher and we're more out of breath...but...
Today is a strength day. Wednesday's is our day to get stronger! After a solid warm up, we are BOX SQUATTING today! We will stay in a front rack position and work on mobility in our front rack to keep torso erect and elbows up - always a challenge as...

Quick background: We know we get weaker as we get older We know it's harder to build and maintain muscle for strength as we get older (but is it impossible?) We know the...
