Registration for the Open is today. I would like everyone to consider signing up, joining the team and starting the week of the 22nd doing all five workouts. There are many reasons why I want everyone to participate but the main one is we are a team. Whether you compete or not everyone at FCSC is responsible for helping each other train. You guys create a unique training environment that creates a lot if intensity. It is that intensity that has helped our athletes do so well in competition. We have sent athletes to the CrossFit Games for the past three years and this year will be no different. Sign up and be a part of the team! It will be the best 10 bucks you ever spent.
We will be doing the workouts every Saturday at the 10:30 class. They will be set up as a mini competition and everyone will act as a judge for each other. Plan on making an event out of it. With any luck we will be in the new gym for at least 4 of the workouts. What a great way to kick off the new gym.

Front squat
5-5-3-3-1-1-1
Start your first set of 5 at 75%-80%. From there you want to add as much weight as you think you can do another set of 5 for. Do the same thing for the 3's and the singles until you hit your max.

New Space update
It took a lot longer then expected to get through all the permitting stuff but they are hard at work doing the build-out. We will be moved in by March 1st. Everything is looking good and I have a crack team working on the color scheme for the inside. We will be painting and building plarforms in the weightroom and painting and installing the pull-up bars soon after. We have the coolest set of pull-up bars already but in the new space they will be twice as cool. (you'll get it when you see the space)The bathrooms are almost done, and yes, they have showers. We will be putting in the indoor ice baths and a few other really cool features.

It doesn't look like much now but trust me.

This is a classic CrossFit workout. If you have never done it before don't miss it. It is a short fast workout but is a great benchmark of your overall fitness. If you have done it before then don't miss your chance to get another crack at it.

Austin took second place in his division with a 6:56 2k.
Kevin took second his division by rowing a 7:02 with a bad shoulder. He knock himself unconcious putting away the dishes and separated his shoulder when he hit the floor about a week ago.
Ted rowed a 7:10 to win his division and win a trip to the CRASH Bs in Boston.
Tim won the 500 with a 1:24.6
Emma won the 500 for the girls
Rose had a tough go in the 2K but took second in the 500

Testimonials

  • Thank you for allowing me to train with you this summer. Being a football player at a Division 1 level I obviously want the best workout available to increase my performance. I have been doing conventional weightlifting for since I can remember and recently have not felt like it was increasing my performance as it should. Coming to Crossfit has been amazing. The high intensity workouts have made me more mentally tough, physically stronger, and able to endure more. Thank you for bringing me in, I believe in Crossfit all the way.

    My daughter and I started Crossfit 1 month ago, I already feel an increased sense of strength. I've always been physically active, growing up as a competitive gymnast and lately an avid runner. Tim's ability to push me through the mental and physical boundaries of each and every Crossfit class is incredible. I have also been participating in the Kettlebell program and Tim has made it constantly challenging, exhausting and exhilarating all at the same time. I love the fact that he is always on the lookout for proper form and is quick to correct you if need be. He continues to push us to work hard, use good form, and never forgetting to tell us that we are doing a good job. Thanks for the motivation, support and the extremely challenging workouts.
