CrossFit Kid GOOFBALLS!

Farewell to Bradley & Leslie Hall!

Bradley, a student of our CrossFit Kids program will be greatly missed next week! He and his mother Leslie fly out to Colorado on Monday for new adventures! Bradley was one of the oldest in our elementary CrossFit kids program and set a great example for the other kids with all movements, especially the Pull Up, his favorite move. His last day of CFK class he attempted his goal on the goal board of 5 strict pull ups in a row, and nailed it!!! Leslie has been such a wonderful help at the gym and will be greatly missed as well!!! Safe travels friends!

Here's the whiteboards for part of this week:

Round-Up Inspires New Athlete to Join AllStar!

We are blessed to have such wonderful people coming in to join the AllStar family, and this man is just awesome! Randy came to the AllStar Round-Up, not knowing us or much about CrossFit. He said he got so 'in to' the event that he ended up losing his voice from cheering so loud! That's the spirit!!! He came into the gym first thing monday asking about classes, came back later that day to sample a class, and came back the next day to join our box! His attitude is amazing, he a waterman, lifeguard of 10 years on O'ahu, and family man. We are honored he's making the commitment to better his health and longevity at AllStar. Way to go Randy! Randy's sweet note to AllStar:

The AllStar Round-Up motivated me to start my 1st Crossfit Class Mon. 11-12-12 at 5:30 pm. Not knowing exactly what to expect I showed with a learning attitude, I was not disappointed. KC and the other athletes made me feel right at home as we quickly got into our workouts. Under the watchful eyes of KC I learned the correct techniques for the different exercises, how to improve, and picked-up some of the energy she flows with. As we got to the end of our work-out, some of the other athletes were encouraging me on, I learned, I surprised myself, and am recovering better than I expected. I'll see my next Crossfit on Wed. a.m.

Mahalo KC, - Randy
