- Our good friends over at The Helm CrossFit are hosting a competition Sept. 26th. This competition is designed for people who have not done a CrossFit competition before, and are wanting to know what it is like. What is also unique about this competition is that they are showcasing a “kids/teens” division. Be sure to check out their Facebook page for more information or contact me at the gym if you have any additional questions.
- Aug. 29th at Monmouth Racetrack. We have a reserved area in the clubhouse. If you would like to sit in the picnic area, you will have to go early and reserve your seating.
- Barbell Club will be starting a NEW cycle 8/23. Get in to work percentages, work from pulling/jerk blocks, and apply the squat cycle we are currently in to your oly lifts!
