Good evening, athletes and judges!

We are so excited for this weekend, and we hope you are, too!  Please review this email in its entirety and reach out immediately with questions!
Physical Prep: Training wise, you are as prepared as you’re going to get. It’s time to focus on recovering well for Saturday. We recommend people take an active rest day tomorrow (Friday).  Get your blood flowing, but nothing too crazy: some Assault Bike, Rowing, Running, RomWOD are all great options. And do your best to get a full night of quality sleep!
Eating and Drinking:  As always, be sure you are hydrating well a full day in advance of the competition.  Be sure to eat well the day before and plan your meals or snacks for competition day. Maybe up your carbs a bit. It’s not the time to try any new foods or supplements.

Mental Prep: Get your mind right. Pray, meditate, or whatever it is you do to get in a positive state of mind. Just remember to have fun!

FULL EFFORT IS FULL VICTORY!
