#MAINLINEMONDAY; CFML’S HIGH POWERED OPEN GYM WORKOUT OF THE WEEK:
This week’s Open Gym workout is programmed by two-times Games athlete Joe Scali.
AMRAP 18 Minutes
80/60 Cal Row
60 Wall Balls (20/14)
40 Deadlifts (185/135)
20 Burpee Box Jumps (24/20)
Scaling Options:
- Scale the row back as needed
- Lower weight/reps as needed
Advice from our coaches:
Break up the reps early with short rest so you can move through the burpees at a moderate pace and you are able to move the rower faster in the second round.

#FEARLESSFRIDAY; CFML’S CALORIE TORCHING, MUSCLE BUILDING WORKOUT OF THE WEEK:
Workout
“MYMC 22.3” 15 ROUNDS FOR TIME
1 Ring Muscle-Up
3 Thrusters (135/95)|(95/65)
6 Burpee Over Bar
Advice from our coaches:
- Take your time setting up for the ring muscle up, no need to rush. A missed attempt will take away much more of your time than setting up properly.
- The thruster should be heavy, but not a max effort lift. Choose a weight you can do all 3 unbroken.
- Don’t dog the burpees. Get them done so you can move on to the next round.

New Supplements Coming Soon!
New happybeing supplements coming soon! The healthiest drinks ever made.
Think of a cold-pressed juice, inside it has a handful of blueberries, strawberries, bananas, and spinach.
Instead of taking a few fruits & veggies and putting them in a blender, happybeing isolates & extracts the active phytonutrients (called polyphenols) that make fruits & veggies as healthful as they are.
Then they infuse these plant-based phytonutrients into 12oz bottles of white tea so that each bottle has as much of the blueberry antioxidant (called Tero) as 962 cups of blueberries, plus 4 other powerful nutrients: EGCG (green tea antioxidant), Vitamin D3 (we’re all deficient), Elderberry (immune support) and Turmacin® (bioavailable turmeric compound). Next, they make it taste great in all both flavors: peach rose, & blueberry.
The end result? a drink that boosts immunity, promotes gut health, and fights inflammation. Perfect for the active CrossFitter.
