Here we are… finally at the end of our strength cycle. This week is de-load then next week we’ll all push the weight and hopefully hit new 1RM’s. This is when I send out a friendly reminder that de-loading is VERY improtant. Please even if the weights feel light stick to the program. Hit your numbers than give the extra effort in the WOD. You’ll get to show off soon enough and hit those heavy weights. Next week will be here before you know it.
Let’s get ready CFD!!
Here’s what’s left of our strength cycle:
July/Aug Wendler Cycle

Announcements:
Develop Within
That’s right all! Our internal competition is back! This year we will be holding Develop Within on October 2nd. It will be an individual competition with four divisions. Male/Female both Scaled and Rx. Block the date off in your calendars! You won’t want to miss this one!!! Behind the scenes things are really starting to come together for this one! ?
There will be more details to come but for now just set the date aside. We will have a minimum participant requirement for each division in order to make this event happen. We will once again be accepting a cash only entry in order to keep this event as cheap as possible for all of you. No matter what level you are at there will be some way you can participate in this great event. We will be in need of athletes, competitors, and judges. This is a great time to push your limits and understand what you are truly capable of in the comfort of your own gym and with your CFD family.
