Val and Phil
Val explains our new awesome referral program to Phil.

Flexible Strength: See list

12 Minute Max Rounds:

  • 6 Dumbbell Snatch Per Side (50/35)
  • 12 Strict Knee To Elbow – No swing or kipping!

Scale-Up Option 1: Hold a 20-30 pound dumbbell between your ankles for you knee to elbows. If you take this option try to get your knees above your navel.

Scale-Up Option 2: Complete 12 knee-to-elbow pull-up combos. One rep is a knee to elbow and a pull-up.


New Referral Program

Yeah, we know you’re probably asking “there was an old one?” There was and it was lame so forget about it.

Here are the new deals, one short term and one long term.

1. The short term deal: Between now and July 4th if you refer someone they get deal #2 and you get a month free. Here is the catch: You get your free month after your friend has been at EmerFit for 3 months. So if they join this month then you get September free. If you can gift your free month to your friend if you prefer.

2. The long term deal: If you refer someone they get the Founders Rates as opposed to the new 2012 rates.

So refer a friend and you can both save. We’re happy to contact them directly if you let them know we’ll be calling.
