It is time once again for our annual halloween WOD! This saturday at 9 am show up in your costume and bring a healthy treat to share for after the wod. There will be some fun surprises this year!

Do you use the excuse “I’m too old to train at CrossFit Spokane” or here is another common one “I’m not in shape enough”. How many other excuses can you think of. Did you think about this; everyone needs to squat, lift, press, sit up, carry things and the longer you can do those things on your own the longer you’ll be independent and not in a home for “old people”. So sure, you may not be “in shape” or “too old”, but you’re not doing yourself any favors by not doing anything. We are excellent in modifying and tailoring workouts, movements and exercise to meet the needs of the individual; old or young, fit or not. 

At CrossFit Spokane, we see a wide variety of people: young, old, over weight, skinny, athletic and clumsy.  They all have one thing in common, they are ready to train, get healthy, get fit and get strong.

No matter who you are or what your training goals are nutrition is going to be the foundation of your results and improvement, good or bad.  A good solid nutrition program will yield greater result and a poor nutrition program will yield poor results regardless of how hard you train.  You could have the best coach in the world with the best programing and mess all the effort up with bad nutrition.  Nutrition is 80% of working out.  One thing you can do is to think of food as a fuel and not for pleasure. 

We will begin our spring sports conditioning program on Oct 31, 2011 and go through Jan 6, 2012.  If your a spring sport athlete and are not currently participating in another fall or winter sport this is your opportunity to better prepare yourself for the upcoming season.  With our program you will have a better chance of remaining injury free, making the varsity team, having a more successful season or possibly getting that college scholarship.  Having been a prior collegiate athlete and a strength coach I can’t stress enough the importance of training in the off season, preseason and maintaining during the season.  We can help.
