SEALFIT 20x in the works!

We are working on having a SEALFIT 20x hosted by our gym this April. Please email me at kris@crossfitpreferred to let me  know if you have any interest. We so far have a few people interested and we would like to have over 20 attend. This is a great event for anybody wanting to improve at life! If you have a group of people that you want to pull together as a team this will help so much to do that!  More details to come soon![/vc_column_text][vc_wtr_youtube url=”3l-_i4Cs10o” autoplay=”0″ showinfo=”0″][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text delay=”0″]This week is week 11 out of 12 of our CrossFit Endurance Phoenix Marathon/Half Marathon training. Everyone participating is experiencing great results and becoming faster everyday! Billy Coover improved his Half Marathon time by 8 minutes this week for a new Half Marathon Personal Record!

 

This week we are working on the Alternating Foot Pulls to improve our form. A lot of people run inefficiently by landing on their heels when they run. This drill will help you to focus on where to land on your foot when you run. These drills will help everyone whether you are running the marathon or not. Just like all of the Olympic lifts and movements that we do in the gym there is a proper form to running. Work on improving your run and your daily workouts will improve![/vc_column_text][vc_wtr_youtube url=”9lANX2-jN-g” autoplay=”0″ showinfo=”0″][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row]
