Well…. Iost a game of paper, rock, scissors to my workout partner. Crazy unlucky is more like it. I actually did a test run to confirm the distance I could cover in 1:40ish so 4000m total. Happy Friday!

Question! What do you all want to see more of in the notes? Do you like when I add in the links to videos? Mobility drills? More or less notes about the movements in the workouts? Modifications/scaling options? Let me know!

The warmups are great especially because I hate warming up and having to come up with one so being given one actually makes me do one!
The thing that personally helps me is goals for the workout. Either a time to finish or rounds to complete. Also scaling options help me, mainly whether we should scale the weight, the movement or the amount of reps to achieve the correct stimulus.
You hit all three of these things so keep up the great advice, I really appreciate all you do!

Is there any way to go back to stickying the notes to the top of the comments section? I remember Michelle did that for a bit. Sometimes I miss the notes and don’t see them until after I lift.

I really like the notes and the warms up. It is easy enough to find videos of demos if they are too time consuming to attach. I find it very helpful to have what I should be looking to do laid out for me for the WOD. Thank you so much for taking the time to coach us from the interwebs! 🙂

The warm ups are super awesome, please keep posting those! Reminders for things to focus on during the movements are always helpful and can give me a new perspective sometimes. Workout strategies and goals are suuuuper helpful too! By goal I mean not necessarily the result but more the intent of the actual workout… knowing that makes a difference on how to attack it and also when and how to scale movements/reps. You’re really great and your help is very much appreciated. Thank you

Love the notes Libby! I especially like the little tips and tricks for any of the strength pieces along with the planned intended stimulus of the workout. Also, the modifications/subs/scale options are very helpful. Keep it up Libby. Thank you so much! 🙂

Libby, thanks so much for entering in and for all you put out on a daily basis. It’s really helpful all around. I appreciate the warmups. It helps add variety to what I already do and expand my base of knowledge. I would love some mobility drills as well. I’ve seen a lot of improvement there, and I’d like to continue that trend. Most of us have scaling needs at some point in the week so some tips there would help as well. We appreciate you!
