April at Cultivus — What to Expect This Month:
New season, new cycle, new skills — April is stacking up to be one of those months you’ll want to show up for. This month, we’re kicking off a new 8-week Olympic lifting development cycle that runs through the end of May — and it’s one we’re genuinely excited about. Whether you’re brand new to barbell cycling or you’ve been at it for years, this cycle was built with every level in mind.
The focus for April isn’t about how much is on the bar. It’s about how the bar moves. The first two weeks are all about slowing things down, building positions, and getting comfortable — tempo work, complexes, and deliberate practice that makes everything feel smoother over time. By the back half of the month, we start adding load with intention, building strength in the positions you’ve been practicing. You’ll feel the difference.
We’re also launching a new gymnastics cycle this month, alternating weekly between handstand walks and rope climbs. One skill session per week, all levels welcome, and scaled options are always available — so no matter where you are in your fitness journey, there’s a version of this that works for you.
Outside of the Olympic and gymnastics work, expect a solid mix of conditioning and accessory strength — back squats, bench press, and deadlifts woven in to support what you’re building, not compete with it. Spring is a great time to commit to something, and this month gives you a lot worth showing up for.
Come as you are. We’ll meet you where you are. See you in class!
