11/16/16: How high?

We already ran out of a bunch of sizes in the baseball tees & joggers, so we are going to place another small apparel order.  Please comment to the blog or email Erin if you would like to request/preorder a certain item!  (If you already replied in the CrossFit 908 Facebook Community Group, please disregard).

UPCOMING EVENTS:

  • Thursday, December 1st @ 6:30PM – Shoulder Mobility Workshop with Keith Wittenstein @ CrossFit 908.  This workshop is for CrossFitters that need help going overhead. So basically all CrossFitters.  If you have tight shoulders, he will show you how to stretch them. If you have weak shoulders, he will show you how to strengthen them.  If they hurt and you don’t know why, we’ll figure that out together.  This workshop will focus on overhead mechanics that apply to handstands, overhead squats, and even pull ups. 2 hour long seminar, $35, sign up here.
  • Saturday, December 3rd @ 8PM – It’s that time of year again…the 908 Christmas Party @ CrossFit 908!  All are welcome – family, spouses, kids, friends!  We will have some Kettlebell Kitchen dishes along with adult beverages, but please feel free to bring a food/beverage item of your choice.  Join the Facebook event here.
