Rally at Rhapsody at Rhapsody Fitness in Charleston, SC.
RUMBLE AT RHAPSODY – TEAM EVENT
Starting on Friday, February 17, each Rhapsody Fitness class will create its own team to compete over the following 3 weeks. Each Team Rhapsody coach will be captaining a different class time and you have the option to join any team on the schedule! We will run The Open workout in class every Friday and if you’re signed up, we will record your participation and score for your team’s overall average each week.
To sign-up for your class team, please fill out this form: https://forms.gle/jsVw7YF2cMVto7uK6
SCORING
If you participate in class or at Rally at Rhapsody, you will earn 100% participation and 2 points for your team. If you decide to perform it at Open Gym or outside of class you’ll earn 50% participation and 1 point for your team.
Each individual’s workout for the week will be averaged with their teammates and it does not matter whether you are doing the RX or Scaled workout. All scores are equal, you just gotta send it!
Both the participation points and overall team average will be combined to create your team’s score.
Highest team score wins!
RALLY AT RHAPSODY – FRIDAYS 5PM-7PM
Trust the Rhapsody Fitness community will show up in spades to go full send, cheer each other on and throw down!
Although this is a competition, The Open is more about camaraderie. Come for the challenge and stay for the shared stories, wins and fun. If you decide you’d like to do the workout at Rally at Rhapsody, your participation and score will count towards your class team!
