I came across this video last night (courtesy of CrossFit) and it reminded me of how fit our studio girls are becoming.  Not a single day goes by that I don’t witness or hear about another amazing transformation or success story.  Yesterday I saw Kathy A. in the 4pm class and I was amazed at how ripped she looks and how her performance in class is sky-rocketing.  After a quick compliment on how lean and strong she looks she told me that 2 people just said the same thing to her only minutes before I did.  Even Kathy herslf was in awe at how great she feels.  Michelle B. has been a member for less than 2 months and just last week I saw her repping out overhead squats like nothin’.  She told me after class that she can’t believe how great she feels and that things are really starting to click. ...Read more

Hello my Fellow FitCampers!  Let me be the first to say that spring is only 32 days away.  Before you know it we will be soaking up the sun’s rays wearing shorts and tanks as we do laps around the studio showing off all those hard earned muscles built during the winter months.  Horay!  (… think of the jump start you have to be “bikini/six-pack ready” over all those people who slacked off all winter!) With the changing of seasons coming up soon I wanted to fill you in on some really exciting changes we also have coming up at the studio over the next few months.   NEW WEEKEND CLASSES!  Last Saturday’s 9:15am class proves that weekend classes are definately in high demand.  That being said, we plan on adding in a few more Saturday/Sunday classes by the end of March/early April.  This will not only give you more options for making up missed...Read more

Coconut Water, “The Fluid of Life” I have recently been exposed to coconut water and it’s amazing benefits.  Here are just a few of the major ones: Re hydrates the body.  Coconut water is a natural electrolyte because it contains potassium, calcium and choloride than which makes it a great replacement to sports and energy drinks with less sodium and sugar.   Removes toxins in the body   Aids in digestion   Regulates Blood Pressure and increases cardiovascular health because of it’s high levels of potassium which raise your HDL “good cholesterol”.    Coconut water also has more nutritional values than whole milk with less fat and no cholesterol. (A great way to get calcium my paleo friends) You can find coconut water at most natural food stores (Roots Natural Foods right next door to the studio carries it).  Some grocery stores do carry it as well, just be sure it...Read more

I frequently hear members saying “I wish I found FitCamp/CrossFit when I was younger”.  The young man in this photo must have overheard that statement and he took action immediately.  After doing a few months of personal training with Nick, Montana was more than ready to take FitCamp by storm. He came into class with the right mindset, training and skills to continue building up his strength and fitness for the long term. In just a short time he is already doing full body weight push-ups, kipping pull-ups and is consistently building a strong foundation that will last him a lifetime.  Most importantly he is doing the one thing that so many adults skip out on because of the “business of life”, Montana shows up.     Today’s Workout:  Friday 2.11.11 Skill/Strength:  Snatch Squat (15 minutes) Go for 1RM or practice skill of movement with PVC/light bar. Workout 1: “Devil’s Bite” 10 Snatch Grip Deadlift...Read more
