HOLIDAY WEEKEND SCHEDULE

Fourth of July
ONE CLASS ONLY 
 9 a.m. - 10 a.m

All other classes for the week are unchanged.

The POWER of many

It's rare, but occasionally someone tries to convince me that training in a gym is fine, but it's just as good to train alone at home.  I suppose there are some who prefer the solitude or quiet time their in-home training brings but when you're looking for real results--- REAL change--- you cannot beat the support and encouragement of your fellow athletes.

This past weekend was our Fit Pit THROWDOWN, an annual challenge event spanning three days with 8 WODs and a Championship Final. Open only to our members, this event is for the beginner and the hard core veterans. Everyone does the same workout; those who are competing for prizes must do the WODs Rx and those who need to modify still get to enjoy the thrill of competition and pushing themselves to their personal limits.

Anyone who had the opportunity to watch even one event would tell you that when you combine cheering and "YOU can DO THIS!" with athletic competition... impressive things can happen. Brendon Jenks PR'd a 300# deadlift... Alex Reed at only 23 years of age got everyone's attention with his speed and unstoppable drive... Emily Wyatt stuck her 200# deadlift and April Adams lifted a jaw-dropping 300#!  Andi Keller made everyone smile as she powered through all EIGHT workouts when at the start she told us she may not make it through to the end.... Alex Hicks completed all the workouts pregnant!! And Katie Baca found out she can really push a sled!  Whitney Ring took a concrete ball to the jaw on day one but didn't let it stop her... she was back and ready to rock at 7:30 a.m. the next day. I could go on and on and on with moments that brought tears and cheers... all uniques except for what made each moment happen.... it was indescribable burst that comes from deeeeep inside when you hear your peers telling you that YOU CAN DO IT AGAIN and that YOU WILL BE AWESOME.

There are many cool things about the Fit Pit... but no doubt one of the very best things is that at any given moment when you might not believe in yourself....... there are a whole bunch of people who do believe in you!

Schedule Change

This will be the last week we offer the 6:30 a.m. class. 

Our 5:30 morning class will remain the same
and if you'd like to arrive closer to 6:00, that's fine--
but the gym will close at 6:30 a.m.

Cinnamon! Who knew!?

Cinnamon is that warm and fuzzy smell or taste that provides a sense of comfort... it's like a treat... no matter what you put it on!   But there are many more reasons to add a little cinnamon to your day...

Fit Pit member, Cati W. provided this link to our Fit Plate group... it's a good read.
