House Rules

-Respect the equipment, no dropping empty bars/DB’s – control the weight

-Respect the weight, Go at your own speed, over-reaching on weight and risking injury = you are out.
-Respect each other, everyone has different levels of experience. We are here to grow together.

-Speak up if you feel injured or if you are competing so that we can scale the workout appropriately.

-Come ready to do the work, eat and drink enough to fuel the workout

-Coming late = burpees.
