The fifth and final workout of the Prototype Open was a huge success! The workout gave these athletes 16 minutes to complete 75 wall ball shots, 25 handstand push-ups, another 75 wall ball shots, and 25 power cleans. If there was any time remaining after the set workout, you would do as many ring muscle-ups as you could until the 16 minutes ran out. Everyone did an awesome job!!

Scroll down to check out these athletes working hard in 22.5, as well as some shots from the 22.5 challenge!

Head-to-Head Showdown:

Challenge:

This week’s challenge was on the rower. Athletes earned points based on how far they rowed: 0-1500m was 1 point, 1500-3000m was 2 points, and 3,001m and above was worth 3 points! Photos were required for 2 and 3 points. They were not required to row all at once, but they had to get it done within 24 hours. For those who didn’t have access to a rower, they were able to earn 1 point by doing 75 burpees over the course of 24 hours. 

Here are athletes contributing their points!

I love cycling and mountain biking, the workouts at prototype have definitely helped improve my fitness so that I can do better on the bike even though I don’t get out as often as I would like. Also spending time with my family, grilling and BBQing when the weather is nice and getting to the beach in the summer. How has Prototype helped you or solved a problem for you? Prototype has helped enormously with my level of anxiety, I was really struggling when we first moved into town, the community and workouts at Prototype have been a life saver for my mental health. What are your current fitness goals? I want to get better at gymnastics, maybe get some toes to the bar. Favorite Quote Two Quotes: “Bone on bone, stack it” -Jon “Activate the lower half” -Brian

Prototype of the Month is well deserved! Below, she answers a few questions about her time at PTS. 1.) Share your experience at Prototype After what felt like an entire year of sitting during grad school, I knew I wanted to be more active. I came back to Prototype, and it was the best decision. I’ve made so many new friends here who make every class fun (no matter how tough the workout is) but my favorite moment has to be meeting my boyfriend Ed! 2.) What is your favorite part about being at Prototype? I used to do at-home workouts and always felt like something was missing. When I came to Prototype, it felt like I finally found that missing piece, the community! It truly makes a huge impact. Everyone here genuinely wants the best for you. 3.) What are your hobbies and activities? If I’m outside, I love playing pickleball, skiing, and going for walks. And if I'm inside I enjoy crocheting, reading, or baking! 4.) How has Prototype helped you or solved a problem for you? Prototype has shown me that if you put your mind to something, you can truly do hard things. I also know I will always feel better after going to the gym. Sometimes the hardest part is just getting in the car, but I never regret it once I’m there. 5.) What are you continuing fitness goals to this point? To get some form of movement everyday and to one day get a pull up. 6.)
