We are almost four months into 2022 and the weather is finally turning for the good. With the start of a new season comes the opportunity to check in with ourselves, to see how well we’ve stuck to our goals set earlier this year. What better way to challenge ourselves than with a community partner challenge?

What Is the Partner Challenge?

Our partner challenge is a community event focused on two-person teams, that consists of 5 workouts over 4 weeks, with the last workout being done in person as a group (as long as that fits your teams schedule). We will test different time domains and modalities such as mono structural work, gymnastics, strength, work capacity and good old fashion teamwork. This challenge will not only be about our fitness ability, but also our ability to work together as a team by strategizing the best way to accomplish the given task with your partner.

Why Should You Do the Challenge?

The challenge will consist of workouts that will test your ability to get through a variety of given tasks. This gives each of us a chance to check in and see if the work you have been putting in is working. We also believe that working out as a community, helps us enjoy the process of training more! So find a friend and challenge yourselves, all while having fun!

How Do You Participate?

The partner challenge is for current members and is a chance for us to celebrate the hard work everyone has been putting in so far this year. Click HERE and follow the registration information to join the challenge. Once you register, we will release all of the workouts (except for the final), on the first day of the challenge. You can then do the workouts in whatever order, on whatever day you like, as long as you do it here at R3VIVE. We will have score sheets in the gym for you to track your scores while we put them into Triib. We will also include a link to a leader board, so everyone can see their ongoing results!

When Will It Start?

The challenge will start on April 25, 2022 and run until May 21, 2022. It will end with a chance for us all to workout together, during the last workout scheduled on May 21, 2022.

Strength expression is our ability to show or utilize the strength we have. We call it expression because in the world of lifting, CrossFit, functional fitness, or training, our ability to show that strength varies. Even though our potential strength is the same, we are not always able to fully express it the way we want. Whether that is hitting a max back squat, doing heavy thrusters in a CrossFit style workout, or hitting that heavy clean complex when olympic lifting, we will not always be able to hit our maxes, this is because of factors outside of just our strength itself.

Hey R3VIVE Athletes, The Apex training cycle, going from January 5th to April 3rd, is our next training cycle! This will be the firt training cycle of the new year! this is a chance to refocus and get in some good work to help you reach your goals! lets all work together to crush this training cycle! Functional Fitness: The Apex Cycle is designed to make your year-long strength work truly functional, focusing on controlled, powerful movements, complexes under fatigue, and mandated touch-and-go reps to prepare you for mixed-modal workouts. Our strength culminates in the classic CrossFit Total and the "R3VIVE Other Total," while conditioning features a wide variety of time domains, movement volume builds (like wall balls, toes-to-bar, and burpees), and regular Friday retests of past workouts to track your progress and ensure you perform your absolute best. Build: Designed to bring together all your training from the past year and prepare you for your strongest performance yet. Our strength work will focus on controlled, powerful movements, building you up to test your limits with both the classic CrossFit Total and the "R3VIVE Other Total," which challenges your skill and strength balance. Expect a well-rounded program including unilateral strength, skill work, and core stability, with dedicated days for deadlifts, squats, gymnastics, and varied accessory work to keep you healthy and constantly progressing. For conditioning, we're tailoring the work to challenge you in new ways, featuring a wide variety of time domains and movements, and a specific volume build on common movements like wall balls, toes-to-bar, and burpees. Instead of a standard test/retest, we'll be performing regular retests of past workouts on Fridays, allowing you to easily track your progress and see how far you've come. Our weekly template balances intensity—with short, fast metcons on Mondays—with recovery, incorporating lower impact endurance work on Thursdays, and a strategic taper toward the end of the week to set you up for success on Friday! Partner workouts will wrap up your week every Saturday, bringing the whole community together.
