COACH'S NOTE
It’s travel prep time! Carry your heavy suitcase all the way down the terminal and back. Don’t forget to lead with some push ups before and after to give your arms an extra bit of blood flow. Switch arms earlier than you think and keep moving on the carry. Keep push ups clean and make sure that chest and hips touch and there is a solid lockout at the top.
No/Minimal Equipment Options
Single arm DB carry → Carry any weight, if you want to really prep for the airport grab a suitcase and load it up

THIS WEEK'S BLOG
Full Armor Proven
Full Armor Proven is a year-long challenge for athletes who want to prove something — to themselves, to this community, and to the standard this gym was built on.
The goal is simple: complete every CrossFit Full Armor workout in a calendar year. Every workout counts — done in the gym, done while traveling, done on a different day than scheduled. Life happens. What matters is that it gets done and your score goes into Push Press.
No score, no credit. Log it and it counts.
At the end of the year, every athlete who completes every workout earns the title — Full Armor Proven.
And with it, two things no one else in this gym has:
Your name permanently on the Full Armor Proven board — a record of everyone who stayed on the path for a full year. And the Full Armor Proven t-shirt — black and gold, Proven on the back, in a colorway that can't be bought, only earned.
This isn't for everyone. It's for the ones who show up when it's inconvenient, who find a way when the week gets hard, who understand that consistency over a full year builds something that a good month never can.
