POST YOUR PRs!
PR= personal record. Be proud of setting a new PR. Lots of you are killing it in the gym, and that’s a testament to YOUR hard work! But it also means the programming is working! Since we reevaluate/tweak the programming every month & quarter, it’s important for us to know, ESPECIALLY during Quarterly Progress Checks, who is setting PRs so we can decide whether to completely overhaul the programming, or do more of the same… so please tell your coach when you PR so we can mark it on the board AND add it to the ACCOMPLISHMENTS board!
Quick shout out to Christine Chaney who’s had several big accomplishments this month – her first Rx’ed WOD, first kipping pull ups (and she did 2!), AND an Overhead Squat PR!
