Happy Trails This will be John’s last week formally coaching at MVMNT Gym. He has accepted a position with The Furniture Guild in Canton, GA. We wish him the very best on his new journey! So if you’re thinking about skipping the gym this week (pssst, his last class is Saturday), maybe come on by and 👋 to John.

Strength class WILL be happening this week. We will be transitioning this class to a Powerlifting program headed by Becci Holcomb. More info to come.

Time for DELOAD!

Take a break from heavier lifting for strength and test your physical capacity. Most of the workouts this week we have done before during other deloads, so come at them with a strategy and demonstrate how much you’ve improved. At the same time, don’t think you need to “win” every workout this week (even if you’re only competing with yourself). Test yourself on one or at most two of the workouts this week. Otherwise, just keep moving. Let your body recover so that when the new cycle starts next week, you are composed and ready to hit it with renewed energy.
