Walnut Crossfit

We have more individuals who are able to do a Handstand Push Up, or kick up into a Handstand on their own now. It’s great see everyone become more comfortable with this movement. I have shown everyone multiple progressions for this movement. This is something you can practice at home!

Way to go Natalia!

Great job to everyone who came in and did “Cindy” yesterday. Especially to those who hit new PR’s(Personal Records).

Dan on the Atlas Stone

There’s a great week ahead of us. We have a couple of “Girl” workouts programmed for this week. We all know how tough these are. And we have a workout where we’ll be trying to hit a Personal Record on our Deadlift.

Everyone shared how much fun they had with the Atlas Stones during Friday’s WOD. We normally use them for games after our short WODs. We’ll be doing this more often. Check it out!

CrossFit at any age!

Amazing!

Look at the amount of deaths from all causes in the United States due to dietary factors. What have you learned from this? You should reduce your intake of sodium and increase your intake of Fish Oil. Pick up some delicious Omega Swirl Fish Oil next time your in.

Hi, my name is James, and I can do Double Unders!

Yes, we are open today. So come on in.

This cop is working on his Handstand Push Ups while on duty!

What have you been practicing at home or work? Seriously, please tell……….

Steve Jobs

If you turned on the news yesterday or today, you already know that the world lost a great man yesterday. Steve Jobs, the founder and CEO of Apple died of Pancreatic Cancer at the young age of 56. Those of you that train here know I am a huge fan of Apple products. You’ll see iPad’s, iPhone’s, an iMac, etc., when walking around the gym. Steve Jobs’ commitment to excellence was second to none. He changed the way the world listened and purchased music and how people use computers. Unfortunately, with the billions of dollars that Steve was worth, he could not buy his health. I do not know the specifics of Steve Jobs’ health situation. But I do know, like myself, that he would have probably given every penny he owns to be healthy again. This is just a reminder that your health is what is most important. Taking care of your health starts now! Not tomorrow, not January 1st, etc..

PS- I highly recommend you Google or Wikipedia the life of Steve Jobs. Imagine being fired from the company you started and by the very people you helped recruit. That is exactly what happened to Steve.
