Everyone loved the "deload" Wednesday Core Finisher today... 💪😅

Simple doesn't mean easy.

Over the past 3 weeks, our members have been building core endurance with this progression. Give it a go and see how you stack up:

🔥 3 Rounds
• 10 Dead Bugs
• 16 Bird Dogs
• 20s Hollow Hold

⏱️ Rest: Less than 5 seconds between exercises.

📈 Progress each week:
• +1 rep per side on Dead Bugs
• +1 rep per side on Bird Dogs
• +5 seconds on the Hollow Hold

Strong cores aren't built by doing hundreds of crunches; they're built through consistent, quality movement.

Save this workout and try it in your next session.

Not everyone will agree with this philosophy.

And that's okay.

But if you believe fitness should make you stronger, healthier and more capable for life...

You'll probably feel at home here.
