 Many times those involved in the CrossFit world hear the words “for time” on a daily basis. This is because much of the work done by a CrossFitter is as fast as possible. However, the coaches strength workout on Friday mornings lead by Strictly Strength Creator Travis Holley, has a different tune.

 If you want to experience intensity, drop by RedBlack Gym on any given Friday at 9AM. Watch as some of the coaches prep for what is about to become one of the most intense feats they do all week, and guess what, it isn’t for time.

 The 20 Rep Back Squat not only brings one of the most intense hormonal responses, but it brings about a battle. A battle with physical fatigue and even worse, a battle with your mind. The 20 squats are not usual to most, but has become a common occurrence and does not seem to be going anywhere anytime soon at RedBlack Gym. The coaches increase weight each week and have not failed to get stronger and stronger each time.

 Do you have what it takes? Send us your 20 rep back squat video (for weight) and let us know how you felt!
