Our CrossFit Kids program held it's largest class this week since we opened 4 months ago. Our family of kids is growing and the children seem to be creating their own CrossFit culture! We truly are, forging the FUTURE of elite fitness.

The obsticle course today included box jumps, rope climb, hurdles, tarzan bar walk, and 100m sprints.

And in the Adult Class: Overhead Squat

Kanani works the overhead squat today for quality of movement.

 Handstand Play

I spontaneously called out 5 minutes of handstands or handstand walks today just for fun, kind of like a pop quiz.. Our box practices handstands extremely frequently, so this was no problem for our athletes!
