The one and only Greg Glasssman made a cameo at the ten o'clock class today. Six years ago I was introduced to this man's vision and it has changed all of our lives. He has made a remarkable impact on the lives of millions of CrossFitters around the world with his simple and yet brilliant view and application of fitness paradigms. We are honored to carry on the name of his original gym here in town and were touched he came by for a visit.

Laurie, Katie, Danielle and Kristan post workout.

CrossFit is an effective fitness program no matter where or how you do it. Be it in your garage, on a military base, in the woods or at an affiliate CrossFit will work.  The only thing that spawns on greater outcome is when athletes compete in a group environment.  Being chased and chasing down your fellow athletes raises the level of individual performances like nothing else.  Pushing and finding our limits is usually found in the heat of competition. 

Thanks to Katie and Kristan for coming in. It was a pleasure to have you both.

It's a Group Thing

The last day of the Open

The open is only two weeks behind us and yet it feels like the distant past as things have gotten back to normal around the gym. It is now time to start planning for the Nor Cal Regional as they are only 18 days away. The event will be taking place June 3-5 at the Santa Clara fairgrounds in San Jose. Tickets are on sale now, volunteers are being wrangled and our athletes are preparing. We are looking forward to a great event and would love to get a big gym turnout to support our team and individual athletes.

Enjoy It

Eric on a sunny day.

It is easy to get greedy.  Wanting more and expecting progress are a trade mark of the CrossFit athlete.  Once we get one pull-up we want 20.  Remember progress is nice and the aims are to continually get better, but let's enjoy what we got.  If you just got your first pull-up don't worry about getting 20, enjoy and celebrate that you got one.  More will come and you deserve the credit for all the hard work you have put it already.  Enjoy what you have created!

One For All

J.D. working hard.

The beauty of CrossFit is that we can all appreciate what it takes to push our limits and struggle through discomfort.  This understanding allows us to celebrate not only the winners but the individual who finishes last and everyone in between.
