MURPH RECOVERY
Murph was a blast as always. It was fun to see so many Cove athletes (and family and friends) honor our servicemen and servicewoman in such a meaningful way. For those that participated and are feeling less than one hundred percent, please feel free to come in for recovery day. That could mean a little time with ROMWOD in the back room or maybe just a gentle row to get things moving. Continue to drink a lot of water and eat good food to refuel your body. And to get the most of yesterday’s workout be sure to take your recovery just as serious as your training.
We also wanted to welcome several of the New You Challenge women to the Cove! You’ll be seeing some new faces joining classes this week so please introduce yourself and give them a word of encouragement!

Coach’s Tip: Choose a deadlift weight that you can do at least 10 reps unbroken on the first set. If you are doing singles out of the gate it is WAY too heavy. The sit ups with exhaust your core, so be sure to find a good starting position each time you address the barbell.
Eternally grateful these people are part of our community AND for protecting our freedom (and Phil too! Not shown here as he was fulfilling his duty of getting ice for the beer…)
