We first did this in 2016. This was a solid retest. I led until the T2B, but Rusty closed strong and crushed the Ninja Getups. Props to him. Big group energy today — great vibes and effort all around.

🧠 Journal Entry

It’s humbling to come back to a workout like HOPE and feel the difference from last time — but that’s why we track. Power snatches felt strong today, but that core workout was tough. The re-test reminded me of how far we’ve come since 2016 — and how much further there is to go. Fired up from today’s crew. Rusty brought the heat.
