Box Brief:
Welcome back to the Sunday blog! You might still have sensory overload from all the articles I recommended last week. So instead of more reading, I have a video to post. The topic is fitness, which is something we all want to improve. But what is fitness? How do we improve it? How do we test to see that improvement? Those are but a few questions that Greg Glassman, the founder of Crossfit, set out to answer. This film titled “The Test of Fitness” answers these questions and shows the evolution of Crossfit both from a training and a test perspective. As always, I hope you enjoy and I’ll see you on Monday.
Speaking of Monday, just a reminder we only have three classes on July 4th. Class times are 6:30am, 8:00am, and 9:30am.

Nutrition Seminar! If you want to sign up for the online group, send Courtney an email at [email protected].The cost is $150 for two months worth of personalized nutrition counseling. You will be assigned a nutritionist to set up your macro “prescription.” Your coach will follow you throughout the 2 months and check in weekly to adjust the numbers. You will also be added to a Facebook group with everyone doing the coaching so there’s a sense of community. The official start date is Monday the 4th, however if you want a different start date that can be arranged. Anyone can sign up for the nutrition coaching, you did not have to attend the seminar.
