Shelter in Place Extension Membership Update
Hello AR Community,
As mentioned in prior messages, we are doing our best to evolve our offering as we weather the storm of this pandemic. As always, we hope you are all safe and well, and maintaining some level of health and fitness while we are physically apart. Thank you so much for continuing to give us the opportunity to support you in your fitness journey, even as that journey takes on a new form.
With today's announcement indicating an extension of the SIP mandate at least through the end of May, we wanted to confirm a few new membership tiers to accommodate the wide range of needs our community has during this time.

BtWB & Endurance Track Update
Beyond the Whiteboard
We’ve made an update to BtWB to include a warmup track. Instead of including the same warmups in the individual equipment version tracks, you can now see warmups in a separate tab on your app. We originally separated warmups on their track because some days BB & DB/KB can be different than unweigthed movements. However, now we’ll just note that in the details of the main warmup track.
Endurance Track
We’ve been working with Coach Kim to develop an endurance track, with the goal of building your engine. They will be dedicated monostructrual workouts (run / row / bike) with scaling options. These will be programmed for 1-2 times a week, and will be posted at the beginning of each week - this week these workouts are on Wednesday & Friday. We recommend you replace the normal class WOD with the endurance WOD if you’re performing that workout for the day.

SHELTER IN PLACE UPDATE
Hello AR Community,
We hope each and every one of you is staying safe and keeping healthy during this time. We want to thank our great community for your continued support, and want to give you all an update on our potential plans moving forward.
We've been trying to navigate the entire COVID19 situation, shelter-in-place orders & extensions, and the current SIP phase slated to end on May 3 (although we anticipate another SIP extension once again) to the best of our ability. We are awaiting word on any changes to the SIP order beyond May 3 to make final decisions, and while we do not want to make any premature announcements, please know that we are (and have been) discussing a plan for the community.
We believe we can make it through this pandemic if we continue to have the support of our amazing community. We are so grateful to everyone who has stood by us, believed in our efforts, and maintained the community bond through this new "virtual" reality. Please know that any decisions being considered & made are prioritizing: #1 our community's safety; and #2 the ability to continue AR as a business that can serve our members in a physical location once again. We've tried our best to keep our community, our fitness, and our collective health thriving as much as possible during SIP. If you have questions about any of our current offerings please reach out to me, as we are doing much more than just virtual classes.
It's been fantastic being able to connect and see some of your faces through the Zoom sessions, and I cannot wait for the day we are all getting fit together once more. Please reach out with questions, concerns, or if you need assistance from us - and stay tuned for more detailed updates as we continue to navigate through COVID19 & SIP.
