Here’s the info on the family we’re helping this season. Thanks so much everyone, this makes me super happy, so darn cool to see us come together and actually do something straight up good.

I am working with a wonderful family that I am hoping the gym will “adopt” for Christmas. I worked with mom to get a protection order against dad after he assaulted her at work. He was arrested and fired from his job as a result, leaving mom with 3 kids and 1 income. She does not speak English and had only recently brought for her children to join them from Honduras. The poor kiddos have been through a lot in the few months they have been here. I am hoping to bring them some joy on their first Christmas in the U.S. I have tags made up with their “wishes” on them that I can bring in and display wherever you want.

What a tough go. Thanks LCF!

Workout for Tuesday Decemeber 6th:

5 Rounds for weight:

Run 200m
Snatch for best 5 touch and go

Work the weight up each round and get heavy heavy the by the end. Squatting is infinitely preferable to not squatting. So we’ll keep that up when it’s appropriate.
