WOW – We had an awesome turnout this past Saturday at the beach! Thanks to everyone who came out and rocked the workout. It was great to see all the new faces with a sprinkling of some of our regulars as well. Leaping burpees in the sand had passersby taking a second look. Great job, [...]

The quality of your sleep is also crucial. That means turning all lights out including any ambient light (tv, digital clocks, phones). [...]
