Last night both Bryon and I experienced a jaw-dropping moment.  It happened when we saw Chris, above on the right doing the Burgener Warm Up, do his Front Squats and air squats in the met con.  They looked like pretty decent squats!!!  ”Big deal”, you might be thinking, “my squat is pretty decent [...]

Sunday Greetings.

When you come into the gym this week, you will see a new Record Board hanging up.  For those of you who have been in other CrossFit Affiliates you know that the Record Board is a staple.  All our workouts are measured in some way: weight moved, speed of work, or amount of work [...]

We are incredibly fortunate to have Mike Heinz here for a million reasons, not the least of which is that watching him and his crew workout is more fun than a night at the movies-hugely inspirational, part comedy, part family hour.  Mike is part of the Fire Dept and a medic and has offered us [...]

Bruce Montoya will conduct a 3 hour Foundations Krav Maga Workshop in our Affiliate on Saturday Jun 6, beginning at 10:45am.  We all enjoyed the little taste we got during the past 3 Saturdays of the short, intro classes and now you have a chance to really learn.  Israeli Krav Maga is the most realistic [...]
