The Sunday blog is up and running! The first CrossFit Open workout will be announced in four short days. In the spirit of this lovely event, I wanted to discuss mental fortitude. Our bodies are capable of amazing things, but only if our minds allow it. We train our bodies to be healthy and capable. We also need to train our minds to create positive outlooks on difficult situations. If you go into a workout with a negative mindset you’ve already lost the battle. Today’s article is very thought provoking, I hope you enjoy!

People are wondering when we are hosting the Open workouts during the open. Here it is!
Thursday – 6:30pm-Close we will set up heats and judges after the announcement. No official classes will be run but anyone and everyone is welcome to do the Open workouts at this time. This will be our “Thursday Night Lights”.
Friday – All classes will be programmed as Goat Day. 20 Minute AMRAP of practicing two different movements. This will be a great opportunity for athletes competing on Saturday to hone in their skills before they attempt the workout.
Saturday – 9am-Close we will set up heats and judges. Sign up sheets for heats are available at 8:30am. So if you want to be in the first couple heats, you’ll need to show up early. This is typically our biggest day of competing. If you want high energy and excitement then Saturday is your day. Come cheer on your friends or throw down along side them. Either way, Saturday is a ton of fun!
Sunday – 9am-11am we will set up heats and judges. We will turn off the lights at 11 so plan on being done before then. Do not show up at 11!! 🙂
Monday – You are more than welcome to give the workout another go on Monday but you need to find your own judge to count and record your time.

Welcome to the Sunday blog! I’ve been discussing recovery a lot the past two weeks. The focus has been recovery through stretching and foam rolling/pressure point techniques. However, there is another equally important piece to this recovery puzzle. SLEEP! This is a topic we’ve discussed before but I can’t stress the importance of sleep enough. Today’s article will discuss the science behind your sleep, and what you can do to optimize your recovery.
