🔷 CFBR Open Apparel is ready for pre-order! This is pre-order only and the deadline is Monday so make your picks today. There are options for a shirt or tank in black, gray, or white with a Mardi Gras theme. Link to the Google Sheet for ordering is in the warmup section of BTWB, the private FB group, your inbox, and will be texted out today too.
🔷 Technique Matters! The most heard and understood reason is safety. No one wants to get hurt exercising. Another reason we push everyone to move their best and to continually make their best even better is to improve fitness. When you move better, a rep will be easier so you will be able to move more efficiently, and get more work done. That may be more reps, more load, or finishing in less time which all increasing intensity which in turn increases your fitness!
🔷 The CFBR Open 2023 starts with Friday Night Lights on 2/17/23.
