Come join us tonight @ 8pm at Delicious Heights for some non fitness related fun. We hope you will all come by for a bit!
Reminder – Team Joseph Fundraiser Workout – Our friends at CrossFit Annex have started raising money for Team Joseph, a non-profit dedicated to finding a cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, a muscle disease that can affect 1 of 3,500 boys. This event helps to fund research to help find a treatment for these young boys. Last year alone they were able to raise over $40,000. On Saturday, 10/29, Crossfit Annex is hosting Battle of The Boroughs, an event that supports Team Joseph. I am unable to attend the event due to a prior engagement, but I told CF Annex we would be happy to help support this cause. On that Saturday, we’ll be incorporating the Team Joseph WOD into our programming. We encourage all of you to visit our Crowdrise page and help us support this amazing fundraiser. If you can sign up for the event, that would be great, but if not we’ll be doing the Team Joseph workout that day. Any and all support is greatly appreciated.
The skill of the month for October is Rowing. This is something we do very often, but it is something that gets butchered just as often. Improving your technique will help you row faster, expend less energy, and keep you safe. Ask your coaches for a tutorial and then practice some rowing drills to solidify your understanding of proper rowing technique. Here is a good video explaining the proper order of operations on the rower and why your current rowing technique may be making you slower and more tired.
Today is Thursday Yoursday, which means all classes are set up like open gym. You can use the hour long class to work on a skill, make up a missed workout, work on mobility, lift, or just enjoy the ambiance. We will be programming additional squatting on Thursdays and Sundays. Bottom line, enjoy the day. Do some stuff you need to work on, and do some stuff you love.
Weightlifting club is tonight @ 7:15pm. Come get your lift on!
