Episode Title:
Why You Should Join the Intramural Open + This Week’s Workouts at Catalyst
Summary:
In this episode, I break down the Intramural Open, why it’s a fun and accessible way to stay engaged with your fitness, and how to prepare for it. The Open is not about competition—it’s about participation, consistency, and community. I share tips from Coach Jess on preparing your body through proper warm-ups, nutrition, recovery, and mental rehearsal to get the most out of the experience.
Then, I walk through our weekly programming at Catalyst, including high-intensity interval training (HIIT), strength work, and aerobic sessions. We’ve got everything from rope climbs and front squats to the classic CrossFit workouts Helen and Tabata, plus a bodybuilding-style session on Friday to round things out.
The Intramural Open starts next week, so if you’re on the fence, just let a coach know—you’ll be placed on a team, introduced to a captain, and the fun begins!
