What a beautiful weekend! We had the opportunity to have Joe Stockinger come in Saturday morning and help us with our Olympic Lifting. I have learned a lot from Joe and I hope those of you that we're able to make it learnt a lot as well. I would've to continue Saturday's at 11 as an unofficial Olympic Lifting session. Jason, Marcy and I are taking our Oly certification in April and look foreword to sharing our knowledge with anyone that wants to learn more about the lifts. It was very nice of Joe to give us a hand and he said we have a lot of potential in our little gym, a great Foundation. He will stop in and help us out whenever he can. 

There are a few changes happening around the gym in response to the January survey. First off we have opened up te noon hour class to 5 days a week now, we will be extending the 7:30 to four days a week in March. Open gym hours will be anytime when classes are not running. Saturdays we will be open 10-4 with Yoga starting Saturdays at 9 am in May. Sundays we will be closed. For my own personal sanity I need I one day a week that I don't think about the gym or have the responsibility of opening/closing or cleaning it. I hope you can all understand, get outside do something with your family's on Sunday and start fresh again on Monday. 

Family day is next Monday, we will be having a regular WOD at 9 am and a FUN but challenging family WOD at 10 am. Bring your kiddos and your significant others even if they do not CrossFit! 

Lastly there has been some changes to programming ti better accommodate the different skill levels in our gym.  For the strength/ skill component we will have three different category's; mechanics, consistency and intensity. Depending where you are at with a certain skill or strength, YOUR COACH's will determine what group you fall into for that particular workout. For the CONDITIONING component of the workout there will be a WOD and a FOUNDATIONS. Again YOUR COACH's will determine what WOD you will do.  The purpose of this is to ensure everyone is working within there abilities and building the strength/ skills to do some if the movements. Again the scaled or modified exercises are prescribed to help you get closer to doing the workouts Rx'd and to ensure a more equal representation of what is recorded on the whiteboard. It's unfair that Joe Schmo had a better score than Rich Fronning because he never touched his toes to the bar once. Get it?  Do not argue with your Coach's. they know more than you and deserve trust and respect.

Have you signed up for the CrossFit open? If you are on the fence about just head on over to crossfit games.com and do it! I strongly encourage you to do it, believe me you will be kicking yourself next year at this time for not signing up and seeing how far you have come with your fitness. I would like to know who has signed up so we can make arrangements on when the open workouts will be completed. The open truly is the funnest time if year for the average CrossFitter!! 

Joe Stockinger has been helping me a bit with my Olympic lifts and will be in again Saturday at 11 for anyone that is interested in getting a few tips. Again Saturday at 11 is a great time for anyone looking to do more competitions to workout together, I have been rather lonely the last few Saturdays and I know I'm not the only one wanting to take CrossFit  to the next level.
