Tadaaaahhhh!!!!

This seems like a task many of us can hardly even imagine dreaming about, much less actually performing! Lindsey, a PT client of mine, Spartan, and a recent Crossfit Sectionals competitor, is not only strong but limber. This picture was taken of Lind's messing around on the ropes in one of our workouts. She does aerial dance, which involves a ton of stretching and flexibility, as you can see!

This past weekend K Star came to our gym to coach a Cert over Mobility and biomechanics of the body. And if we thought we were flexible before, Kelly sure put us in our place. Because of our lack of flexibilty and mobility many of us live life with constant nagging pains which in turn lead to injury. This is something Central is trying to change, we want our clients to be healthy and prosperous, as well as strong and Sicfit!

If you would like more info on stretching technique and mobilty, tune into the crossfit.com main page for daily WOD's on stretching.....soon to come.

Certified Badass

 
This is Carey after finishing 1st at the regional Qualifiers this past weekend. She is an inspiration not only in the gym but also inspiring outside the gym. She is always pushing herself and those around her to be better and greater. She is an amazing role model and coach. I just want you to know Carey from here on out I will push myself as far and hard as I am able to beat you, because I know you are the BEST!

Hoppy Easter Everybody

 
This weekend I got the pleasure of going out to my buddies lake house and relaxing for 3 whole days. I loved it, and my body is thankful for it. We painted eggs, had an Easter egg hunt, and went to church with the fam.

I think many of us forget what Easter is truelly all about. We get so self obsorbed and forget to give thanks to the One who has blessed us with all that we have. This weekend brought me back down a notch to what life really is all about.

I feel so very blessed to have a Savior that died and rose again to forgive every single one of the transgressions I make day in and day out. Thank you Lord for all that you have given me, and my wonderful, inspiring Crossfit family!

Ass to Ankles

 
Whitney does a great job of getting below parallel on every one of her squats. This is the perfection we as Crossfitters should be aiming for every time we step into the gym. Technique and movements should be flawless. The workout today was 5 rounds of:

65# Squat cleans X10
10 pullups
200 M sprint

Push It!

 
It's all smiles and hard work when Lizzie and I get together for our training sessions twice a week. Lizzie is the youngest client I train right now, with the best attitude. She comes in to see me after an early morning of practice followed by a long day of school, and still manages to stay positive and pushes hard through every challenge I throw at her. Way to go Lizzie, and keep up the hard work!

I currently have two spots to fill with one on one clients, so if you are interested or know someone that might need a little extra motivation send me an email.

Strength Lifts

 
EEEEWWEEEE, look at those ladies deadlift. You go girls! The deadlift is an essential movement in Crossfit workouts and life. Basically, all the deadlift is learning how to pick up heavy objects safely from the floor and the ability to set them back down without injury. A peice of advice, get a strong dead!

Pullup Mania

 
Whitney, Megan, and Julie have all three been working diligently over the past few weeks to conquer the pullup. They have all had great success. Everyday I walk into the gym I see new people getting their pullups down and it Pumps
Me Up! I know alot of our clients are working hard to tryout for the affiliate team, and those that aren't are just working hard to accomplish their goals. Whatever the reason may be, you guys are super inspiring and motivate me as a coach to be at the top of my game!
