We are Revolutionizing Fitness! 2011 CrossFit Gym of the Year
Quick announcement…no 6am class tomorrow morning (Monday). This is a one time thing, sorry, we’re on regular schedule for 12:30pm, 7pm, Tuesday at 8pm, and Wednesday at 6am, etc.
Hope you all enjoyed your rest day…with all this rain in North Hollywood, we might be better off with a boat than a car…
Get ready to be able to move that boat tomorrow!
Saturday morning Snatch drops…
Vertical Jumps…
And Push Ups…
A Great way to end the week! See you all tomorrow at 12:30pm or 7pm, and don’t forget to check out our February Membership specials!!!
I left my camera at home (so I don’t have any other photos), so I had to use my phone to capture Greg going for 205# push press…
And Great Success!
Great effort everyone. And for the bonus points, can anyone name the Points of Performance for Press and Push Press? This one is tougher than the squat.
Start with med ball chases. What’s a med ball chase? Grab a med ball and start running. Then have someone run after you. It’s hard, and pretty hilarious. I was laughing too hard to take photos, but I’m sure if you axe (ask) anyone driving on Lankerhim Blvd last night they’d probably have a hard time describing what they saw too…
Then we did a modification of ‘Annie’: Same rep scheme: 50/40/30/20/10, double unders stay the same, but sub sit ups for deck squats.
What the heck are deck squats? Besides being awesome…and just a little funny when you can’t get one completed, it’s a back roll into a squat. Maybe that will help these photos make more sense!
CrossFit…often harder than it sounds…and always more rewarding than you can imagine!
Awesome afternoon class today! One of the best things about CrossFit…if I just think of something to do for a workout…people will pretty much do it!
We had a diverse afternoon class, first timers and more experienced CrossFitters. What to do, what to do….
Bingo. ‘Annie’ and 3 rep max deadlift! Constantly varied…YES!
For those that aren’t familiar, ‘Annie’ is a CrossFit Benchmark workout:
50/40/30/20/10 reps of Double Unders (2 passes on the jump rope) and Sit Ups for time.
Then we practiced deadlifts. People who have been through the Elements techniques began to find their 3 rep max lift, while the newer people got comfortable with all the points of performance on the deadlift (aka health-lift).
The afternoon crew working on Double Unders!
New guy Simon, from Australia, busting out his Sit Ups, and using CrossFit to help rehab his knee! That’s exactly what functional movement is for!
Police Officer Erik has been CrossFitting for a while…and it shows. Great form on his 300lb deadlift!
Finally, my friend Joseph Salim, a 3 time Olympian from Denmark and Hungary came by to say hi. He also said ‘take advantage of the February Grand Opening Special and get CrossFit!’ Ok, maybe he didn’t say that…but he did say I needed to get longer shorts
Awesome job last night going heavy everyone! It’s important to remember that we work on new aspects of fitness and ESPECIALLY the parts that aren’t so comfortable. When you work those 2 places, big gains always begin to come!
Great job on your way to the bottom, Joe!
New guy Josh showing solid form (once his shoes were off!) and hitting the main ‘points of performance’ on the squat…
Can you name the main points of performance for the air squat? Try, and post what you’ve come up with to comments.
See you all today for something even ‘newer’…
And don’t forget to check out our February specials in the membership section! Prices as low as $49 per month! The best fitness on the planet, a great group of people, and keep some extra cash in your pocket…and did I mention it was CrossFit? I’m pretty sure I could have just stopped there, it’s all that ever needs to be said.
Well, our first month open has come and gone in a flash. We are so happy with how CrossFit North Hollywood is growing…the people we’ve met and have become a part of our family, sweating together, and getting really, really, Fit…it’s awesome.
Our January Grand Opening Special is now in the past, but we’re still a newborn affiliate…so to celebrate our 2nd month being open, which is also the 2nd month of the year…we’re gonna do a 2 person membership special…our ‘February Grand Opening Special!’
For this February:
12 month membership for 2 people is $119 per month (that’s only $59 per person, EFT: Our most popular)
12 month membership for 2 people paid in full is $1149 total (that’s only $47 per person, per month: Our most economical)
