Dūrātus Holiday Brunch
This Saturday (12.14) will be our annual Holiday Brunch!
There will be a special 9am "hero style" workout with a potluck brunch to directly follow.
All members are invited to participate...come for both, or just show up for the food! Either way, we would love to have you.
**Please bring a breakfast/brunch dish to share (muffins, fruit, baked oatmeal, frittata...the options are truly endless) and Dūrātus will provide all the coffee and mimosas you can handle!
A special addition this year - is our partnership with 90+.
We thought it would be cool to give back to our community by helping a local non-profit (click link to see the incredible work this organization is doing with kids in our city).
As a "buy-in", we are inviting all people to bring their lightly used soccer gear and/or cash to donate helping them reach more kids.
Dūrātus is committed to matching whatever money comes in!
Looking forward to celebrating the season with you all!

Wednesday Dec. 04
Info
Capacity days will utilize percentages of your reps per minute in order to progress effectively. If you completed last weeks test as an EMOM then this is easy as it is just the numbers you used last week. If you completed last weeks test as an AMRAP then divide your total amount of reps for a given movement by 10 and that will give you a rough estimate of how many reps you would have completed in an EMOM. We will be using percentages of these reps throughout the cycle so it might be helpful to write them down.
Strength
Warm Up

----------
10 total reps of:
inch worm down
-into-

*Part of building work capacity is learning to pace appropriately. For your work capacity test movements select roughly 50% (+0 to 1 rep) of your per minute total from last week's test. Your goal will be to fill the enitre 30 seconds of work with movement and maintain your selected reps for each set for the duration of the workout.
