JOIN THE MAP FAMILY Greetings! A special thank you to all that came to our first annual MAP BBQ in Grand Rapids. We had a great time connecting and eating good food, Thanks to all that provided extra sides. We also added some fun by creating a quick tap challenge....only at MAP! At MAP the atmosphere feels more like being part of a family than just another training program. Unlike other places where athletes might come in, do their workout, and leave, MAP encourages everyone to connect. Athletes show each other respect and work together towards their fitness goals. It's a supportive environment where everyone's in it together, working hard and cheering each other on. If you're a MAP athlete, invite your friends to join the family! As always....TRAIN HARD & SMART! | | |

Featured Exercise - Horizontal Pull-Ups The horizontal pull-up is a highly beneficial exercise for sport-specific training, offering distinct advantages over the regular pull-up. Unlike the standard pull-up, which primarily targets the upper back and biceps, the horizontal pull-up engages the middle and lower back muscles, including the rhomboids and lower traps. This exercise also recruits the rear deltoids, core, and stabilizing muscles, making it an excellent full-body workout. The horizontal pull-up is especially valuable for athletes who need to develop pulling strength in a more horizontal plane, such as rowers, swimmers, and climbers. It mimics the pulling motion in these sports, enhancing functional strength and stability. | | |
