Believe it or not, SUMMER – the season of skin – is when more people struggle to maintain their physical output level. They let themselves believe there's such a thing as treading water. Three Coronas in, it's pretty easy to be okay with maintenance.
We don't do hard exercise for its own sake. We do it to find: find our bedrock, our limits, our commitment, our space-coyote-spirit-guide….or maybe just our abs.
Nothing physical was ever found by standing still and waiting for it to come to you. The search must continue. This summer, we're loosening the leash…but we're not cutting any slack.
Instead of running regular 6-week Bettys and Frat Barbell groups, we're going to offer you a challenge, and schedule regular 'checkups' to keep you on track. Need another reason? There are prizes.

been watching other people do. The Bettys' and Frat programs are working.

just maintain!”
