This week brings a strong mix of classic endurance, barbell skill work, rope climb progressions, and some real upper-body grit. We’re kicking off Murph prep, continuing our gymnastics cycle, and building on the Olympic lifting foundation we’ve been laying down — there’s something meaningful in every day, and every workout has a version for wherever you are.

Monday- We kick off Murph prep with two 800m runs bookending 10 rounds of strict pull-ups, push-ups, and air squats. The goal is pacing over heroics — protect your grip, break your sets early, and keep each round feeling the same as the last.

Tuesday- Strength is a barbell complex building position and bar proximity before we hit four 3-minute intervals of box step overs and deadlifts. You pick up exactly where you left off each round, so consistent effort beats going out hot on set one.

Wednesday-Rope climb skill work opens class for all levels, focusing on foot lock mechanics and efficient sequencing whether you’re working toward your first climb or chasing speed. The workout that follows is a pressing and midline grind — your shoulders and core will feel this one more than your lungs.

Thursday-Power sn**ch strength work sets the tone with deliberate singles at moderate weight, and that same discipline carries straight into the workout — a chipper of rowing, burpees over the bar, and sn**ches. Don’t burn out on the first two movements; the barbell at the end is where this one is decided.

Friday-Two scored sets of front squats paired with ring muscle-ups close out the week, with the rep scheme flipping between rounds — smart scaling means every athlete gets the intended stimulus. Bench press follows the workout to finish with some structured pressing strength heading into the weekend.

New week, new cycle — a lot to look forward to. Here’s what’s coming up:

Monday — A new strength cycle kicks off with tempo back squats, then flows right into a high-rep chipper of wall balls, toes to bar, and box jumps; the squat work primes your legs for what’s coming, so embrace the burn and keep moving.

Tuesday — Strength time goes to a sn**ch complex — pulling, catching, and holding overhead — followed by a fast 9-minute ascending ladder of power sn**ches and burpees over the bar where pacing early is everything.

Wednesday — A 20-minute AMRAP where the runs get longer and the wall walks stack up — your run pace is the whole game here, so keep it controlled and let the reps accumulate.

Thursday — Power clean and push jerk strength work sets up three back-to-back 4-minute intervals of jump rope, front squats, and max power cleans; consistent output across all three sets is the goal.

Friday — Week 1 of our new gymnastics cycle launches with handstand walk skill work, then wraps up with a steady 15-minute row and push-up AMRAP that rewards patience over pace.

Come as you are. We’ll meet you where you are. See you in class!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

April at Cultivus — What to Expect This Month:

New season, new cycle, new skills — April is stacking up to be one of those months you’ll want to show up for. This month, we’re kicking off a new 8-week Olympic lifting development cycle that runs through the end of May — and it’s one we’re genuinely excited about. Whether you’re brand new to barbell cycling or you’ve been at it for years, this cycle was built with every level in mind.

The focus for April isn’t about how much is on the bar. It’s about how the bar moves. The first two weeks are all about slowing things down, building positions, and getting comfortable — tempo work, complexes, and deliberate practice that makes everything feel smoother over time. By the back half of the month, we start adding load with intention, building strength in the positions you’ve been practicing. You’ll feel the difference.

We’re also launching a new gymnastics cycle this month, alternating weekly between handstand walks and rope climbs. One skill session per week, all levels welcome, and scaled options are always available — so no matter where you are in your fitness journey, there’s a version of this that works for you.
Outside of the Olympic and gymnastics work, expect a solid mix of conditioning and accessory strength — back squats, bench press, and deadlifts woven in to support what you’re building, not compete with it. Spring is a great time to commit to something, and this month gives you a lot worth showing up for.

Come as you are. We’ll meet you where you are. See you in class!

New week, new opportunity to show up and move! Here’s what’s ahead:
Monday — A 25-minute grind of running, pull-ups, push-ups, and air squats where pacing is everything — go out steady and let the run reset your upper body between rounds.

Tuesday — Three building intervals of wall walks, toes to bar, and box jump overs, with the final window being a max-effort push; keep the gymnastics controlled early so you have something left at the end.

Wednesday — Two big rounds of air bike into heavier barbell power cleans; how composed you are when you step off the bike determines how well the bar moves.

Thursday — Eight intervals of a short run into strict handstand push-ups or pressing option scale with rest built in — the goal is consistency across all eight rounds, not one heroic set.

Friday — A descending rep scheme of jump rope and single dumbbell squats that gets friendlier as you go; stay relaxed on the rope and keep the squats moving, and you’ll find a rhythm.

Come as you are. We’ll meet you where you are. See you in class!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Shoutout to everyone who showed up and put in the work this week!

Back Squat. Shoulder Press. Deadlift. Three big lifts, three chances to see how far you’ve come — and you showed UP.

Maybe you hit a new PR this week. 🎉 That’s incredible and you should be proud!

Maybe you didn’t hit a new number, but your technique looked better than it ever has. That matters just as much — because better positions today mean bigger lifts down the road.

Maybe you just showed up, did the work, and left everything on the floor. That’s exactly what this community is about.

However this week went for you, we’re proud of you. Progress isn’t always a number on a whiteboard — sometimes it’s just consistency, and that’s worth celebrating too.

Drop your highlight from this week in the comments — PRs, breakthroughs, or just something that felt good!

Come as you are. We’ll meet you where you are. See you in class!

Here’s a look at what’s coming up this week at Cultivus!

Big week on the horizon — strength testing early, then classic conditioning and gymnastics work to close it out. There’s something here for everyone.

Monday we’re testing 1-rep max Back Squats, then taking on “Jackie” — row, thrusters, and pull-ups. A classic benchmark that rewards smart pacing and planned sets. Mods available for every level.

Tuesday is 1-rep max Shoulder Press, followed by three intervals of double unders, push-ups, and dumbbell bench press. The goal is consistency across all three rounds — don’t blow up on the first one.

Wednesday we deadlift to a 1-rep max, then tackle a sandwich workout: air bike, V-ups, dumbbell box step-ups, more V-ups, and back on the bike to finish. The second bike is where it gets spicy.

Thursday we do some light, fast clean and jerk cycling before going long — two rounds of running and kettlebell swings. Run controlled so you can actually attack the swings.

Friday starts with gymnastics (muscle-up or pull-up practice, three levels — means there is a version), then a descending ladder of front squats and bar-facing burpees. Short rounds, big effort.

Come as you are. We’ll meet you where you are. See you in class!

Charles and his wife Barb have been with us since the beginning. We were so honored to celebrate Charles’ 70th birthday with him and his family today. His constant commitment to his fitness is an inspiration to us all, and his kind and supportive attitude lifts up everyone he works out with. We are looking forward to to doing 71 burpees next year. Happy birthday, Charles!

Here’s a peek at what’s coming up this week at Cultivus! Whatever your fitness level, there’s something great waiting for you every day.

Monday kicks things off with back squats to build that strength foundation, then two tough sets of squat cleans and handstand push-ups. The built-in rest between sets is there for a reason — use it, then go again.

Tuesday we’ll spend some time on pull-up and muscle-up skill development before moving into three intervals on the bike, kettlebell swings, and toes to bar. You’ve got a window to work and whatever’s left is your rest — pace smart and keep moving.

Wednesday is shoulder press for strength, then a steady 16-minute grind on the rower and shuttle runs. Every two minutes, same work — find your rhythm and settle in.

Thursday brings deadlifts for the strength session, then three short AMRAPs of dumbbell lunges and burpees with rest in between. Score your rounds and see how consistent you can stay across all three.

Friday closes the week with sn**ch work every two minutes, then six rounds of wall walks, overhead squats, and pull-ups. A great way to finish the week strong.

Lots of variety this week — barbell, gymnastics, cardio, and skill work. Scaling options are built in for every workout, so come as you are and we’ll meet you where you are. See you in class!

Shoutout to every single person who stepped on this floor this week.

You pushed. You grinded. You surprised yourself. You showed up for yourself and you showed up for each other. That’s everything this community is built on.

And if you’ve been curious about what you’re actually capable of? Come find out. There’s a spot on this floor with your name on it, and you won’t be doing it alone; we’ll be right there with you every step of the way.
