Sunday we are hosting the Diane Fu Barbell Olympic Weightlifting Seminar all day. Several from SRCF (Coaches included) will be completing this seminar and I’m excited to see the improvement of technique, movement, coaching and error correction skills that they will all pass on.

Congrats to Will for hitting his 100th WOD! Now I really need to order the shirts…
