Blogs & Workouts
We’re a couple weeks away from the start of our Summer Swim WOD.
You can hear Mikey and myself talking about it on our latest podcast - Ep 081: Murph…Swim WOD and the Strongtown Summer.
During the podcast one of the things we discuss is how you don’t need much equipment for our swim workouts but the one thing that you do need (outside of a swimsuit) is a pair of decent goggles.
If you’re anything like me your time in the gym is for working out. You know you should stretch and mobilize after class but it rarely ever happens.
It’s one of those things that we all know we should be doing but it’s very often overlooked since it’s really not very exciting.
Kind of like a check-engine light in a car, we’ll deal with it when the issue arises.
The problem is that just like a car, a little bit of maintenance work can go a long way in helping to make sure everything continues to run smoothly for the long haul.
If you’ve been around Strongtown for any period of time it’s no secret that we love double-unders.
They’re a staple of our programming and one of the primary conditioning movements we do during the colder months when running isn’t an option.
They are also a movement that can be incredibly frustrating (and abusing) to learn.
The good news is that anyone can do them. Double-unders are a skill-based movement so learning them is a neurological adaptation and not a physical one….
