This weekend

I will be out of town this weekend from Friday afternoon through Monday. Gyms hours will remain unchanged, however, because Casey will be here Friday and Monday afternoons and Connor will be here Saturday and Monday morning. Train consistently while I'm gone and I will be back Tuesday morning!

Back in business!

I'm feeling great and will be back in the gym starting tomorrow. Since most of you have taken a couple of weeks off, we will have to be careful you don't get sore!

Upcoming events: 

Thanksgiving week the gym will be closed Thanksgiving day and the day after. Also that week, on Monday (11/25) the gym will not be open until 9 AM.

The weekend of Dec.6-9 I will be out of town. I will ask Casey/Jason/Connor to cover, but only if people sign up to visit. They pretty much sat here by themselves last week.

The gym will be closed on the afternoon of Dec. 24 and Christmas day. We may do one workout on Christmas day depending on interest.

I will be out of town Dec. 30-January 1 to attend Ryan's wedding in Cleveland.

Friday, Dec. 20 we will do the "12 Days" workout and happy hour. Mark it on your calendar!

I'm home, I'm actually feeling pretty good

And I can see out the window that hardly any of you are showing up for your workouts. Hmmmm.....

Update on the schedule!

The gym will not be open Thursday morning 10/31, but will be open that afternoon.

Schedule for the last 2 weeks of October

As some of you know, I am scheduled to have surgery on October 23 and will need a little time off afterwards. Casey, Jason, and Connor have kindly agreed to cover the gym while I am out. Please take advantage of having a different trainer take a look at you! A fresh pair of eyes can see things we might have been missing.

The only change to normal hours is that the gym will not be open until 8 AM on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Hopefully, I will be back, good as new November 4th!

Ahhh...September!

It cools off a bit, colors start to change, and we all let go of the delicious debauchery of summer and get back to the comfort of a schedule. We will miss our students who went back to school and welcome the ones coming back! I love living in a college town! This is a bittersweet September for us. This is our last first day of school. John is a senior!

Expect a lot of outdoor workouts because we have to get them in before the snow flies and we are forced inside for many dark months.

Of note: Some of us will be competing at the WNPF Powerlifting meet in Buffalo on Sept. 15. I will not be competing due to this pesky abdominal issue but I'm going to be there cheering our people on! No pressure Courtney, but yeah, 405 :)

There are several new people, so introduce yourself and make everyone feel welcome. We can't leave that job to Meri and Zoe. They are dogs and somewhat unreliable.

The ladders have been great, but it is time to change program! I will be transitioning most of you to a new program in the next few weeks!

We need a picture, so why not Dave? Good luck at Naz our friend!

We have some fun here while we get strong.

Can it really be August already?

I've been having a little bit of fun editing photos.

Big, big thank you to Casey and Jason for helping me cover gym hours this summer!

Tomorrow update

Regular gym hours tomorrow. I have a medical appointment in the afternoon. Casey Mehlenbacher has kindly agreed to supervise your workouts in the afternoon so it's all good! No sandbagging!!

Don't know if this Friday was exactly "fun"

 But many of you really learned how to extend your hips! This was tough work on such a warm day, and the math was overwhelming!

The t-shirts and hoodies are in! Come and pick them up!
Tomorrow I am driving to Belmont, NY for the Allegany Celtic Festival, and to pick up my Highland Games implements. I have 3 seats in the Fit if anyone wants to come along! I'll be leaving around 11:00 AM

Katie, Mike and Maggie graduate and other stuff

She does actually work out, but she is also a favorite amongst the pets.

They like Neal too!

Congratulatory shots!

I love spring!!

T-shirt and Hoodie order went in yesterday. They will be ready on or about May 27. I need orders paid up by then! I can take a credit card now!

It is so nice to play outside!

Ryan just stopped by to say "Hi" :)

I am absolutely loving this weather! We have gotten to play outside all week. It is so nice to take the Prowler out for a spin and get to have some fun throwing.

Fun Friday...assessing the situation

 Figuring it out together. Fun. Friday.

Mike really likes to throw!

Meet report

It has been so nice to take the workouts (and recovery) outside!

WNPF meet report:

 All of the Wadsworth Fitness/Crossfit Geneseo lifters had a great day!. Courtney took 1st place in age/weight class and Best Female Lifter with a 290# squat, 150# bench and 350# DL! Katie (first meet) took 2nd place in her division and PR'd all 3 lifts. Karen took first in her division and while she was a little disappointed in her lifts she overcame meet nervousness and is excited about her next meet. Casey took first in his division, got robbed by the judges on his 2nd DL attempt, but nonetheless broke some new ground.

I am so proud of all of them!! I couldn't lift due to this elbow snarkiness, and while I missed the lifting it was really nice to take pictures and just be the coach!

WNPF Meet tomorrow!

Katie, Casey, Karen and Courtney are competing tomorrow! The meet is at the Staybridge Inn, 1000 Genesee St. Rochester (across the river from the Uof R) Lifting starts at 10:15! $8 admission. Stop by and watch some serious lifting! I'll be there all day!

It's so nice to play outside!

Got the chance to show Mike a couple of throws. I think we have a new throwing fan :)

Got to do a little throwing this weekend!

Casey and Katie trying out my new kilt!  As you can see here, everyone just looks better in a skirt.

A bit of an early heads up: As most of you know, my daughter Laura is getting married on June 29. I am going to need to take the week before the wedding off. I am trying to arrange coverage with other trainers. As the details become more clear I will share them with you!

So yeah, come prepared to play outside now.
