Labor Day Weekend

Saturday, Sept 5 - “Triple Pig”

This Saturday’s workout is “Triple Pig,” a high-energy partner workout designed to challenge athletes and give them an opportunity to practice higher-skill movements.

• Bar Muscle-Ups

• Med Ball GHDs

• Triple Unders

Scaling is king for this workout. Come ready to work hard, move well, and have fun with your partner.

Labor Day - Monday, Sept. 7

On Labor Day, we’ll have one class only:

8:30 a.m. class only

No other classes will meet that day.

On Saturday, Sept. 12, we’ll have one class only:

September Programming: Stronger Together

September continues our current focus on the 8-rep Front Squat and Push Press.

We’ll retest both lifts the week of Sept. 7.

From there, we’ll move into a transition phase for the rest of the month. Each week will include a heavy squat and barbell complex.

September also includes a 2026 CrossFit Games-inspired week, with Games workouts adapted to the appropriate Mayhem Gym level, plus a special 9/11 tribute workout on Sept. 11.

Our next official strength cycle begins the week of Oct. 5, with more details coming in the October newsletter.

Monthly Challenge - Partner Row

This month’s Mayhem Monthly Challenge is a partner effort — row 5,000 meters.

This one sounds simple, but it will take some strategic communication and pacing.

More details will be shared in class and on BTWB, but start thinking now about who you want to team up with.

REMEMBER — Everyone who completes the challenge will be entered into a drawing for free JH MERCH, so make sure you logged everything properly in BTWB.

New Next Level Cycle

For our 24/7 All-Access members, a new Next Level strength cycle begins Sept. 7.

Details will be available in the program notes on the whiteboard / BTWB.

Beach Brawl — Sept. 26–27

Beach Brawl is coming up at the end of September, and JH will have athletes competing again this year.

This year’s fall event includes both individual and team divisions:

Saturday, Sept. 26 — Individual divisions
Sunday, Sept. 27 — Team divisions

We have a couple of teams competing, and we’d love to have a strong JH crowd there to support them.

If you’re not competing, come hang out, cheer on your friends, and help us bring the JH energy to the beach.

We’ll send out a separate email closer to the event with heat times, team info, and the full schedule.

October Costume Theme Workout

Looking ahead, we’re planning a themed holiday workout on Saturday, Oct. 31.

We’ll announce the official theme closer to October, but go ahead and mark the date. This one should be fun.

Thanks for staying consistent and keeping the gym moving strong.

See you in the gym,
Will
