Two Years!



Katie brought Lana in for another workout! And George can smile when he's deadlifting!

We celebrated our 2 year anniversary as a CrossFit Affiliate last week!!
News:
The gym will be closed Feb. 26 and 27 (Friday and Saturday) in order for me to attend a CrossFit Mobility certification seminar in NYC.
April 18 Jeff Rice and I will be rowing a 42K. I'd like all of you to come and cheer/jeer/whatever it takes to get us through it!
Our very own Laura Cook is attending a CrossFit level 1 seminar in April! Who wouldn't want a gorgeous blonde coach!?!

Karen brought her son Robert in for some wallballs this morning!


and he did very well! I still think he might have been just a little bit impressed at what his mom does here, or at least he should be!

Dede gets her first pullup!!



Then goes on to do several more! You go Chica!! I'm so proud of you!


Barbell classes are so fun!

We're 2 1/2 weeks into our "Look better naked" Challenge. How is everyone doing?? Post comments, ideas, recipes!

As most of you know....I joined Jeff Rice of CrossFit Rochester and also Laura Cook's boyfriend, in a 1,000,000 meter row in 2010 challenge. As a part of that, Jeff and I are going to do a rowing marathon (about 42K) on April 18th! Mark it on your calendars because we're going to need you here to support us. It will be around 4 hours in that seat for me. Of course we will have a social gathering after the event :) Also, anyone who wants to join us, or do a partial marathon, is welcome! We will have extra rowers!

Rowing, Thrusters and pull ups...what could be better?


Great rant from Mistress Krista over on Stumptuous.com
There just might be a workout next week somehow related to your dietary indiscretions...so be careful....

Jessica gets Tim!




Laura definitely has pull ups and Karen's done 2/day most of the week! Numbers is competing in a CrossFit competition in Philadelphia on Saturday! Good stuff is going on here!
I sometimes get frustrated, and I know you do too. I think I should be lifting more by now, I haven't got that dang muscle up yet, but.......
.......I visit Walmart and/or Wegman's almost every day and witness the general population. Let's just say that we should ALL pat ourselves on the back for a moment for walking through the barn door and doing this stuff on a regular basis. Yes, we need to work harder and get better....but we are on the right track! So, pat yourself on the back and keep coming in for the workout!

Casey went back to Slippery Rock today

But he stopped by yesterday, got his pictures taken and joined our contest so we'll see him again on March 27! We now have 12 participants in the "Look better (almost) naked" Challenge, so the prize is up to $360! You can still participate if you get your "before" pictures taken this week!
We're gonna miss you Casey!
The Barbell Classes are a lot of fun and regular attendance will improve your strength and therefore your performance in CrossFit workouts! Also, try a Kickboxing class! Great stress reliever!
