We’re already halfway through 2024! Here’s a few notes about the holiday week upcoming:
Thursday, the 4th of July, we’ll be doing our traditional hero WOD Hotshots 19 at 8 and 9:15am. (All other classes are cancelled.)
We’re running a regular schedule the rest of the week, but please sign up early as we may cancel some classes depending on projected attendance.
Here are the WODs for the week. Let’s finish off June strong!
🌈 Thank you so much for participating, contributing, and attending the fantastic 2024 Pride WOD and Fundraising Event last Saturday, June 15!
We were delighted to raise $$$ (actual amount TBA) for Our Family Coalition and the FCCF Scholarship Fund!

Congrats, Murph and Max Snatch Cycle athletes!
I don’t know about you, but my quads are already sore, and it’s only been about 10 hours since Murph…!
Congratulations to everyone who completed Murph and the Max Snatch this week!
We’ve finished this programming cycle and there will be an opportunity to deload this week depending on how you’re feeling. If you’re feeling sore and tired, scale down your intensity and focus on steady movement. If you’re feeling fresh, push the pace snd weights to where you’ll be challenged.
Hope you all had a great weekend and we’ll see you at the gym soon!

Monday Milestones: Snatch 1 Rep Max & Murph
This Monday, we reach the final week of our snatch cycle and will get to test a 1-rep max! We will hopefully see some PRs and, more importantly, improved technique and understanding of one of the most complex movements we do in CrossFit. Some friendly barbell etiquette reminders: alternate lifting with those in front/behind you and don’t walk in front of someone taking a big lift so they can focus on the task at hand.
And next Monday is Memorial Day Murph, where we’ll get to see the results of all the prep workouts we’ve been doing the last 2 months. Whether you’ve been consistent or not, we’ll have plenty of scaling and partner options available so come by if you’re in town for this annual community tradition. We’ll run a holiday schedule with morning classes (similar to Saturday schedule).
See you in the gym soon to cheer on your swolemates, have fun, and celebrate completing this programming cycle!

Now, getting down to this week’s WOD business, let’s kick it off with the next round of our snatch cycle…
Happy May! It’s officially Murph month.
Get ready for a fun week of barbells and metcons! Enjoy yourselves, and don’t forget to wear SPF.
Before you go, check out this pure elation from Quarterfinalist Brianne Cannon and one of FCCF’s biggest cheerleaders, Mike Olasov!
Hope you had a great weekend! Get ready for another week of snatching and Memorial Day (on 27 May) Murph prep.
Congrats again to our Quarterfinalists! Friday night, Saturday morning, and Sunday morning saw this group of elite athletes (including former member, the Philly-based, Gwyn Price-Ahau!) sweating, pushing, laughing, and generally kicking butt. You’re fabulous role models for the community!
