I'm hoping to get a t-shirt order in this weekend. Let me know if you'd be interested in purchasing one once we have the design. The first shirt will most likely be very simple, but feel free to submit ideas...

Tuesday 090512

Power clean 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

For those of you not experienced with this movement, we will be doing sets of 5-5-5-5-5 while working on form.

Bonus rounds for everyone today!!!

Please remember that while the main goal of the CF warm-up is to prepare yourself for vigorous activity, it is also where you can improve your strength and flexibility. Your goal is to be able to get through 10 unbroken reps of each exercise, 3 times around. We will be doing more of a structured warm up once we move to the bigger facility, but for now, you really need to push yourself to do the warm-up as Rx'd!

Thanks again to those of you who stopped by this weekend to help out with the boxes. We still have 6 more to cut out and put together. We will definitely have one of the best box jump collections in the area once they are all finished...if that day ever comes!

Good news! The pull-up bars are being made and should be done in less than 2 weeks! As soon as they are completed and installed, we will be moving the equipment to the new gym.

If you are planning on working out this Saturday, please come to the 9 AM class. I will be heading to the new gym to work on the box jumps as soon as the class is over. Feel free to stop by to see the new place anytime after 11 AM. Any help is obviously appreciated.
