CROSSFIT REDDING

Monday

Monday WOD's at 6am, 9am, 11am, 530pm, 630pm.

Monday is GARY'S BIRTHDAY!  

Be ready to play!

Last day of L-Sit = 62 seconds!  

For the September Challenge, we are doing something a little different.  It will be a 30 day PALEO/Get-Lean challenge.  Let's see what we can do in 30 days of STRICT nutrition combined with CrossFit training, plus a little secret weapon that we know will help in your efforts.

Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, 

little starch and NO sugar. 

Starting on Tuesday Sept. 1, take a before picture.  Also you'll need to log EVERYTHING that you eat, everyday for 30 days. It will be cumbersome, but it will be well worth what you learn from it.

WHAT'S YOUR POTENTIAL???

Cool little pic/story.  Here is Michelle on the left and new Grandma Cara on the right.  The funny thing is that Cara is holding Ashton, which is Michelle's baby and Cara is Jesse's mom; and Jesse and Talia just had baby Isabelle.  Cara is taking care of Ashton so Michelle can get a WOD in.  

We love our family!

Come Join us and see that CrossFit is WAY MORE than just a Gym!

You can't get better without sacrafice.

Friday was a day for Isabel (30 Snatches for time).  The Snatch is one of the most technically difficult movements to master, but everyone did pretty well in putting the pieces together. 

Tara is our first woman to do Isabel as Rx'd with 95#.

It was a battle, but she nailed it in 9:56.

Nice work Tara, we're proud of you!

To conquer oneself is a greater victory than to conquer 

thousands in battle.

Big Congratulations to the 005 Fundamentals Class who finished up on Thursday. Be sure to welcome Jim, Tami, Chris and Cara to the mix.


Saturday was fun, we squatted, pulled, climbed, rowed, ran and shot med balls.

Char's mid-row smile

Tara uses her mind to float a med-ball... Very amazing!

Game On!... CAR! Game OFF!... Game ON!


This makes an elastic band workout seem pointless.
You know you want to come do this! It's fun to play and get fit at the same time.
