Hey Risers of NYC!⁣
⁣
Effective immediately, we've decided to follow the lead of other fitness clubs across the city and put our workouts on hiatus for a bit.⁣
⁣
We've always touted being out there every morning no matter what. We've worked out together in snowstorms, rain, hurricanes, sub-zero temps and heat waves. But given the current situation in NYC, we are drawing the line at pandemics.⁣
⁣
We feel this is in the best interest of our workout leaders, attendees, and community at large.⁣
⁣
Keep yourself active. Remember, you can do burpees, pushups, and squats anywhere! Tag us in your !⁣
⁣
Here's hoping we'll be back to high fives soon! πŸ€šπŸ™β£β£β£β£β£β£

⁣
On this day in 1930, Pluto was discovered. Pluto will always be a planet in our hearts. Today we took a tour of the solar system, learned a bit along the way, and definitely got sweaty! ⁣
⁣
Also, we discovered that no one could name all of the Seven Dwarfs.⁣
⁣
Dancing? Planets? Seven Dwarfs? What kind of workouts are we running?! Only one way to find out - get up, show up!⁣

Welcome back to Badass ! ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
