Join us Monday At 12:00PM as we take on the workout “Big Floyd” adapted versions of the workout are below

This memorial workout is dedicated to George Floyd who died in police custody after being brutally killed while being arrested by four Minneapolis police officers on May 25, 2020. His death has sparked protests in over 100 cities in the US. And many worldwide. 

The workout, designed by Stacy Pugh, founder of @blackpowercleans, spread throughout the fitness community in support of the Black Lives Matter movement following George Floyd’s killing. 

It circulated with a letter Stacy wrote detailing his desire to see increased diversity in the functional fitness community and to urge athletes to complete the workout in honor of George and in support of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Stacy’s original post included an image with the text, “We lift for: George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade, Sandra Bland, Philando Castile, Atatiana Jefferson, Walter Scott, Alton Sterling, Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, Stephon Clark. Rest in Power.”
