🇺🇸 Memorial Day Murph!

We know not everyone was captured here, but we’re grateful for each of you who showed up to work hard, remember, and honor those who gave everything in service to our country.

Today’s Murph was more than a workout, it was a tradition, a challenge, and a small way to pay respect to the memory of Lt. Michael Murphy and all the brave men and women we’ve lost.

Thank you to all those who serve, and to their families.

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!🇺🇸Today we honor the brave people who gave their lives in service to our country. Thank you to everyone who came out to represent for Murph today and brought the energy, heart, and community spirit.

We’re proud of every one of you, and we’ll be sharing today’s highlights soon.

Team Backyard

Thank you for your presence, your effort, and for helping us remember those we’ve lost.

We’ve been present with our own mothers today, but we can’t let the day pass without honoring all of you powerful and inspiring Backyard mothers. You are the power, the portal, and the backbone.

There are so many of you! We wish we could post you all.

Happy Mother’s Day!💪❤️

🔥 2,000 CHECK-INS 🔥 To the Grand Master himself, Anil Picaso.

This milestone barely scratches the surface of the inspiration he and his life journey have been to the Backyard community. Anil shows us what it looks like to take your life back and own every moment.

A cancer survivor, a builder of businesses, and somehow still the first to crack a joke before absolutely crushing the WOD of the day.

We’re honored to sweat alongside you, sir. What a milestone. What a life.

Congratulations, Anil! Join us in celebrating this incredible achievement.

✨Special Announcement✨ Alicia has been a dedicated part of the Backyard community since 2012, since Backyard was literally in a backyard. For nearly a decade and a half, she has brought support, strength, and heart to our gym and community.

Outside the gym, Alicia is a Supervisor with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and has served as a sworn peace officer for 28 years. Her work has always centered on community safety, and throughout her career she has worn many hats while supervising and supporting recently released incarcerated individuals.

She is the first in her family to graduate college and is a proud mother of three and grandmother of five.

A lifelong athlete, Alicia ran track in high school, has completed 13 full marathons and countless half marathons, and later discovered a love for CrossFit that deepened her passion for fitness even more.
