December Committed Club + January Programming Focus

Habit Better

Before we highlight our rock-star members and our programming focus for January, we wanted to remind you of our #HabitBetter challenge that starts on 1/4!

No sugar, no cheese, no booze, workout every day, count your macros, paleo foods only, be perfect, do better…. how many times have you done one of those challenges to start off the year? How many times have you been perfect at following the “rules,” only to go back to old habits sometime in February?

TRAIN HABITS. GAIN HABITS. This year, the #HABITBETTER challenge is different! The biggest reason we fail to build healthy habits that last is because the “rules” of a challenge aren’t sustainable. You aren’t training habits in the same way you would train to PR a lift or a benchmark. This year, we TRAIN HABIT the right way.

Starting January 4th, we will be running the CF Petram #HABITBETTER challenge. Join us for a full month of habit training that will meet you where you are in your health journey, and provide the right amount of challenge and accountability for you to create real and sustainable change. We will focus on habits meant to improve SLEEP, NUTRITION, and MINDSET. However, it’ll be up to you, which of the three you want to focus on for this challenge. Focus on JUST ONE, stack A COUPLE, or go all in and tackle ALL THREE. The decision is yours but the INTENTION is the same. We want to build habits that will stick beyond just January.

TO PARTICIPATE... Pick up (Or print out) your #HABITBETTER tracking guide and commit to one, two, or three areas to focus on. Track your progress, share on Instagram with the hashtag #HABITBETTER and tag CrossFit Petram! Looking forward to #HABITBETTER… together!

LET’S CHAT HABITS… Use the button below and schedule a 15 minute meeting to talk about our #HabitBetter challenge and your own ideas or questions for your habit tracker! If you'd rather meet up to talk about something else Petram related, I'm always here for that too!

We are officially starting our trackers on 1/4! Pick a few habits to work on this January and join in on the fun.

January Programming Focus

To progress forward let’s first look back...it’s important to discuss what made our December and closing out of 2020 so great! We finished off our second Wendler-Esque strength cycle mid December that had the PR bells ringing! We also hit the third and final installments of some of our favorite workouts, Cali-Bear, DT, as well as a few themed workouts for the Holidays! We are riding high into 2021! Now let’s talk about 2021. Overall we are looking at a month of high-quality, very classic GPP with our Baseline tests kicking us off! In 2020, we tested "Test Flight’ versions of our NCFIT Baseline workouts as a dry run on what would become the new updated 2021 versions. These are our very own phenomenal and more importantly, repeatable tests of fitness. January starts off by introducing these updated versions that we will ultimately see again later on in the year in July. 2020 hit the fitness space in the last couple of weeks by announcing a new change to the Open, that the now 3-week competition will be happening in February, as opposed to the original March 5-week date. This doesn’t change anything for us, our goal of improving upon skills remains the same with an emphasis on the commonly seen movements. As we inch closer to this date, there will be workouts that resemble the style of programming often seen in the Open. Buckle Up, 2020 was great but now it’s time to hit the ground running into 2021!
