Goat – an exercise or movement that makes you cringe; you are very bad at your Goat, you hate your Goat, and usually try to avoid it whenever possible.

What’s your Goat? What do hate to see on the blue board? What skill or movement do you need to work on most?

Today is your day to identify a Goat and go to work on cleaning him up. Once you have ID’d the weakness you want to tackle, get with your Coach to discuss progressions, skill work, and supplementary exercises and go to work. By the end of the day create a measurable goal to whip your Goat and formulate a plan to accomplish this goal (get with your coach for ideas/help). Post your Goat and goal to comments.
