If you are interested in participating, keep Saturday morning open-  further details to follow!

2014 Athletes Camp



Wow what a group! Trevor and I are thrilled with our teens accomplishment's this summer. They all made huge gains and were a blast to coach!


Trevor and I are always preaching consistency. Athletes who are consistent make the most gains! With that said Congrats to our young athletes who were able to be consistent and we want you to know your consistency paid off!

Like every good trainer we can lead a horse to water but cant make them drink. We asked them all to record their maxes at the beginning of our camp. Some did and some regret the fact they forgot :( Next year I guess Trevor and I will just have to keep a record for them :) Here are some of the awesome gains they made...

Make a Wish has Blessed the Enriquezs and the Vandeheys, now let's help them GIVE BACK!


I hope you are all enjoying the cooler temperatures! I came across these two posts and tried to share them but struggled! So I found a solution:) I want you to read these mom's short stories and PLEASE if you're available, join us on Saturday to support Make-a-Wish kids and their families. There is tons to do and plenty of fun to be had by all:)

Alise Enriquez

Come watch, support and see what we do in a CrossFit environment. Juan and I will both be in the competition during Banks Days this weekend! Come support an amazing foundation, Make a Wish. 100% of the proceeds will go directly to them! This is a near and dear foundation to us. We were able to be a part of their blessing 2 yrs ago! Can't think of a.better way to spend my Saturday!

Angela Vandehey

Never in my life would I thought I would be blessed with a child that looks so perfect on the outside but is fighting some big medical battles on the inside. We were once told to be thankful for days he felt good.

He doesn't complain. Once I asked him what the best blessing from God he ever received was....his answer: my disease. Sounds like a strange response but when I asked him why, he replied that he appreciates life more and because of his challenges he has met wonderful people and has had amazing adventures....particularly playing with wolverines in Alaska, thanks to Make-a-Wish.

Well Saturday is a day we can give back to the organization that Cason was so blessed by....Make-a-Wish.

Please visit wishtobetough.com for details.

Should be a fun CrossFit competition on Saturday, keg toss that evening, and kid games on Sunday.
Please join us! There are so many kids out there like Cason....kids that have big challenges, who can inspire the masses.

Wish to Be Tough, Be Kid Strong and Country Tough!!

Tomorrow is a 1 RM Day for the OH Squat...So Why Do We OH Squat?



Tomorrow is our 1 RM day for the OH Squat and often times not every ones favorite movement. Newer athletes ask me all the time what the benefit is of being able to squat with weight overhead...The answer is way more then most athletes even realize!
"The overhead squat is the ultimate core exercise, the heart of the snatch, and peerless in developing effective athletic movement. This functional gem trains for efficient transfer of energy from large to small body parts - the essence of sport movement. For this reason it is an indispensable tool for developing speed and power. The overhead squat also demands and develops functional flexibility, and similarly develops the squat by amplifying and cruelly punishing faults in squat posture, movement, and stability.

The overhead squat is to midline control, stability, and balance what the clean and snatch are to power - unsurpassed." Greg Glassman
Below is a CrossFit link that explains the OH Squat in detail...I am a firm believer in improving your weaknesses to help your strengths. If you are one of those athletes that dreads the OH Squat, then use it as an opportunity to discover and gauge where your weaknesses lie. Any ROM or mid line stability deficiencies will become very apparent and give you or your coach some great tell tail signs for where to get started.

Looking forward to some PR's tomorrow. Rest up and we hope to see everyone in the box!
