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.

Hey R3VIVE Athletes, Our next programming cycle runs from September 15th to November 7th. It's an 8-week cycle that will continue to see strength progression carrying from what we did last cycle in Functional fitness. While Pump will begin working unilateral strength progressions. Functional Fitness: This cycle will continue our progression from the skill and lifts from last cycle, while trying to integrate them into more of our conditioning. We will do this by focusing on different portions of the lifts during our strength portion then performing smaller sets of gymnastic skills in our conditioning. You will also see conditioning that is purely focused on our aerobic capacity and working mainly on monostructural elements, such as running, rowing and biking. Build: This A-B week cycle is designed to build foundational strength through consistent progression, with a strong focus on Back Squats and Strict Presses, including variations for balanced weekly training. Conditioning will have some longer aerobic pieces and begin to include more skills like strict Toes-to-Bar, and Pull-ups from last cycle. See the chart below for details.
