Subject: P7, W1 Recap

Hi Friend,




Happy Friday to you! How'd your week go? Mine was certainly up & down. Down obviously b/c my Pepé passed and b/c Vivi was home sick all week except today. Up b/c my family suggested I write the obituary, so my mom asked and I said, "of course" and b/c basketball was fun and I had an awesome workout A#2 today. So you know. Normal ups and downs of life. So. How'd your week go?




Q3, P7 - Week 1 Recap

Good start to the 1st week of the quarter and phase me thinks? What did you think of the foam roller, stretching & DB Complex audits, in which I did the exercises with you so you could watch & remember what the routines looked like? Next week, what I'd like to do is not really tell any stories during the rolling, stretching and DB Complex and simply focus on your technique and then check in after. As always, I welcome your feedback on this thought of mine and the programming, coaching or CYBBC in general.




Feedback

I think I nailed the timing of the feedback, by asking after the DB complex b/c I got a lot of it from all 3 class times, even the 6am. Josh had a real good one about the Tall Kneeling Rockbacks, in which he thought it took too long and messed with the flow of the circuit and I think he's right. We changed the reps from 10 to 8. Also, when I changed today, I wondered about maybe trying 6 (+2), which means week 1 do 6 reps, week 2 do 8 reps and week 3 do 10 reps, ... We'll see how it plays out. Again if you have feedback, you can reply to this email, text, call, ask me before or after bc or even send me an email at a random time when a comment surfaces in your brain. :-)



End of Quarter vs. Beginning of Quarter

What a contrast from last week's end of quarter, end of phase record week, where you did a tremendous amount of work and this week you watched a lot and did at least 1 round of everything.

Well done Liz. Keep going!

  • To Joseph K for casually dropping, "I'm about to fix a femur" in a text conversation. Wow!

  • Karna for being rested today. That's refreshing to hear and see. High Five! :-)
