Workout Tracking (included with your membership):
We have teamed up with SugarWOD, a powerful programming tool that allows us to publish our WOD’s the night before, provide logging capabilities, and enhance community interaction. We believe strongly in logging your workouts and this app makes the process simple. Even if progression is not your goal, you should still be logging your results so you can better understand what weights to use during strength conditioning or the Metcon.
