Candy Cash In!

CrossFit Kids bring in extra Halloween Candy and get paid! WE collected today and we'll be collecting again in class on Thursday to see how many punds of candy we're keeping off the streets and our of your home!

November On-Ramp includes my parents from Honolulu as students and Cheryl's Brost's Mother to! What a great class!

CrossFit Kids practice for their Rep-A-Thon this weekend on Sunday Nov. 10th at 12:45pm!

Mahalo to all of you for bringing your kids to practice on Sunday! It was awesome and so special for the children to meet each other and socialize before the big day! If you couldn't be there do not worry, I've attached the line up and starting positions for the kids.

Judge Bill Case was present, which was ultra special for the kids! He gave great feedback and would like us to work on the following points of performance with the children this week in preparation for the event, and for continued training in general....but he'll be looking for the following:

Make sure kids do their best to keep their 'Angry Gorilla' back during the Deadlift, on the pull AND on the decent (which is sometimes harder for them to remember and engage).
Make sure kids keep knees out on the box jump landing on top of the box...the knees tend to collapse in if leg muscles are not engaged on the landing. Sometimes I ask my kids to 'Screw their feet' into the box (in an outward motion) when landing to help keep the knees out.
Knees up on tuck jumps!
