🔥 Programming Brief | Week of October 12 🔥

Legends, here’s what we’ve got coming up this week 👇

Monday: Thanksgiving partner workout! 🦃 Grab a partner, your running shoes, and your turkey (AKA a sandbag). We’ll be taking it for a run and mixing in some burpees and thrusters. Don’t miss this one!

Tuesday: Upper body push and pull strength, followed by a spicy MetCon featuring double unders and kettlebell movements. 🔥

Wednesday: Wide stance back squats as we introduce another variation of our big three lifts. Afterwards, we’ll hit some single leg accessory work and core.

Thursday: Gymnastics work with pistols, dips, and wall walks. Then we’re heading outside for some running intervals. 🏃

Friday: Olympic lifting as we introduce the split jerk, followed by some plyometric work to develop that explosive power.

Saturday: Partner workout time! 💪 Barbells and machines are coming out for another solid session to finish the week.

Plenty of strength, skill, and conditioning coming your way. Enjoy Thanksgiving, get the work in, and we’ll see you at Defy, legends! 🔥💪

500 WORKOUTS 🔥

Naomi has worked with Head Coach Xochil for many years, and that relationship continued when she joined us at Defy.

Her sessions with Xochil have become the foundation that supports everything else she loves doing outside the gym. Building strength, capacity and resilience in here so she can thrive out there.

That’s what training should be about. The gym isn’t the end goal. It’s what the work you do here allows you to do everywhere else.

Congrats on 500, Naomi 👊

250 workouts for 👏

Alexandra built her consistency the right way. It started with three workouts a week, and now five is a normal week for her.

She has a demanding job that regularly means late nights, but she's never allowed that to become an excuse for putting her health on the back burner.

Instead, the noon class has become a reset in the middle of the day. Get away from work, train hard, recharge and get back after it.

250 workouts is what happens when training becomes part of your life rather than something you try to fit in when everything else is done.

Congrats Alexandra. Onto 500 💪
