New Strength Cycle, Paleo Restaurant Opens in Berkeley, Let's Get Strong!
Benchmark Mondays are on hold for the next month while we dive into building strength ala Barbell WOD. This holistic approach, developed by our friends at Cal Strength, will make you better in ALL your lifts. To learn more about the Barbell WOD read this. We not utilize those 1 rep maxes established last week, and if you missed one you can make it up right there in class. Strength training days are Mondays, Wednesdays and Friday’s during this 5 week cycle.
===========================================
Mission Heirloom is the new paleo restaurant on Vine and Shattuck in Berkeley. I know that’s not exactly right around the corner, but it looks worth the drive.
