CrossFit FC East – Burgener Strength (Oly)
Week 8 Note from Coach Sage (No Measure)
This week is your own, individual journey. This means that we’re giving you the luxury to choose what path you want to take each day. This last week of this cycle is a deload AND/OR Test week. You have the opportunity to take each day as it comes and decide if you want to have a heavy test day, or a lighter deload day. You can change it up each day as the week progresses. You don’t have to treat it as just a test week or just a deload week. If you’re feeling great, go heavy. If you’re not, stay light. It’s as simple as that!! I will write out two different options for each day. – Coach Sage
