Art Walk in Little Italy This Weekend
Written by C.J. Martin
San Diego’s Art Walk is surrounding the gym! Art Walk is a great annual event that just so happens to be in our neck of the woods. I don’t want to push too much culture on you, but I would strongly suggest taking an afternoon this weekend to see the many displays and visit the vendors at Art Walk – except the churro stands and similarly toxic junk food.
Art Walk is a really cool opportunity to hang out with friends and family, and buy or look at some amazing art. It is not, however, particularly convenient for our members because of the street closures. So, please be warned that on Friday, April 23 and Saturday, April 24, street parking could be very difficult to come by. Our parking lot is available, as always, before 7:30 a.m. and after 5:30 p.m., but please ensure that you leave for the gym a little earlier than normal to navigate through street closures and find parking on Friday and Saturday.
CJ,
What degree is the strength training in the form of periodization? Or is the strength training part of the wod’s just random?
Thanks!
It’s not random. The focus varies over the course of different cycles. Selecting what receives focus is mostly based on what I see in our group sessions and where I think our athletes can improve the most. Then we’ll attack those weaknesses on a 4 or 6 week cycle.
