  • To help each of our members improve in all areas of CrossFit we are going to focus on one SKILL a month. For the next month we will be focusing on pull-ups.  This could be strict pull-ups, kipping, butterfly or even Muscle ups.  If this is an area you are wanting to improve in we encourage you to work on this skill at least two times a week.  We will schedule optional skill work every Tuesday and Thursday. Please take advantage of this time to work on skill and ask a coach to help you.
  • The Crucible 2 is Friday September 16th. We are currently offering a $25 discount to anyone who signs up by September 4th making the price $125. For more information on The Crucible 2 please click here.

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text delay=”0″]For the next 4 weeks we will be working on pull-ups.  If this is a skill that needs focus, please be sure to take suggested times to work on it.
