Pre-Blast: Defying Gravity – START TIME UPDATED TO 6:30

Pre-Blast: Defying Gravity – START TIME UPDATED TO 6:30

START TIME UPDATED TO 6:30 AM DUE TO CURFEW

Join us Saturday at Calvary at 6 AM (yeah it’s early deal with it!) for an opportunity to lift heavy objects and put them down.  Get on the list, email Hoover: rob.n.jones@gmail.com

A couple of things to remember:

1. This will only work as BYOB – Bring Your Own Barbell (and plates).  If you plan on coming you and a partner need to bring a barbell and plates.  Kettlebells, dumbbells, and resistance bands will also work for some exercises but a barbell is the best.  To organize equipment a weekly email will go out to all interested parties asking who is coming and with what equipment.
2. If interested, you’ll need to get on the email list so the Q can coordinate gear.  If 10 guys show up with one barbell and plates between them, the workout won’t be very effective.  Email Hoover at: rob.n.jones@gmail.com to get on the list.
3. All strength training will be performed in pairs.  One will work, the other will rest and spot their partner.  We’ll try for partners by weight and strength but experienced lifters may need to partner up with newer guys.
4. Form over Substance:  Weight training is all about maintaining proper form not just completing a massive amount of reps or an extreme amount of weight.  Even light weights can help build strength but only with the proper form.  If you’re new to strength training.  Be prepared to focus on your form, not max out your deadlift.
