September Aerobic WODs are HERE. 🔥
Summer’s not over yet—let’s keep the heat going. ☀️💦

We’re not training to be skinny.

We’re training to be strong.

Strong legs that create power.
Strong shoulders and backs that can carry some s**t.
Strong arms that aren’t just for show.

Because building physical strength does something to your head, too. You get harder to intimidate. Harder to break. More confident in what you can handle.

Life is going to push back.

Might as well be strong enough to push back harder. 💪

Why do we program conditioning like this?

Today’s workout:

5 Rounds for Total Calories
1:00 Max Cal Row
1:00 Rest
1:00 Max Cal Ski
1:00 Rest

Simple on paper. There’s a lot happening physiologically.

During those 60-second max efforts, your body needs energy fast, placing a significant demand on the anaerobic energy systems to sustain a high power output.

Then comes the 1:00 recovery—and that’s part of the training too.

Your aerobic system plays a major role in restoring energy stores and preparing your body for the next hard effort.

So we’re not just training how hard you can go.

We’re training power + recovery + repeatability.

Can you produce a high output?
How quickly can you recover?
And can you reproduce that output when fatigue starts to accumulate?

The goal isn’t one great round. It’s the ability to keep producing when your body is asking you to slow down.

Some days you come for the workout.
Some days you come because you just need the hour.

To move. To sweat. To get out of your own head.

The weights are heavy.
The reset is real. 🖤💛

You spent all summer running everyone else’s schedule. Camps, carpools, snacks, repeat. And somewhere in there, the thing you kept saying you’d do for yourself got pushed to “after.”

The kids just got a new routine this week. You’re allowed to get one too.

Here’s what that actually looks like: one hour, three days a week. Every session is coached. Every movement is scaled to you. You don’t walk in and figure it out — you show up, and we handle the rest.

You also won’t be doing it alone. Your coach knows your goals. The people in your class know your name. And everybody notices when you’re not there.

Start in September. Be different by January.

Always grinding. Always spotting. Always prepared.

1,558.62 MILES. 🤯🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

That’s how far the PFT crew traveled together during our 7-week Summer Stampede — and some of these individual totals are absolutely WILD. 🔥

From first-time mileage goals to people stacking 100, 200, 300+ and even 400+ miles, every single mile added up to something pretty incredible.

And now for our Summer Stampede Champions! 🏆

👑 Female Champion: Jessica Barnes — 423.16 miles
👑 Male Champion: Grant Hill — 242.79 miles

Absolutely incredible work by our winners, everyone who landed on the leaderboard, and every single person who contributed a mile along the way.

1,558.62 miles as a community.
That’s what happens when we keep showing up. 💛🖤

There’s something powerful about realizing your body was never meant to just be smaller.

It was meant to be strong. Capable. Resilient.

To lift heavy things.
To pull yourself up.
To chase goals that have nothing to do with a number on a scale.
To take up space and be damn proud of what your body can DO.

Strong women aren’t “too much.”
Muscle isn’t something to be afraid of.
And strength looks pretty damn good on us.

Kinda chic to find out just how capable you really are. 💪🖤
