Wednesday, November 25th, 2009CrossFit LA rules
Tuesday, November 24th, 2009Here are the gym rules for a very successful CrossFit Gym in L.A. Hmmm.
CFLA GYM RULES
1. Arrive early and stay late. Cheer, clap, and encourage others. Anything less is to cheat yourself of the experience, and to rob others of the gift of your presence and support as part of the community. Besides, if you’re late, it’s 10 burpees per minute.
2. If you forget to sign in, it’s 50 burpees. And regarding any burpee incentives… you may cry and whine all you want, as long as we can hear you counting.
3. Accidents and injuries happen and usually come as a result of impatience. Don’t be greedy. Slow down. Ask questions. Ask for help. Check your ego at the door.
4. EMPTY barbells were not designed to be dropped (neither were dumbbells or kettlebells). We don’t want our toys, our rubber flooring, you, or someone else broken unnecessarily.
5. Chalk is useful, even necessary. It is also messy. Use as much as you need, but keep the excess inside the chalk bucket because all the extra dust keeps breaking our vacuum cleaner!
6. Clean up and put away all equipment after each workout. Clean up sweat, spit, blood, chalk, dirt, vomit, handprints, and whatever else you’ve left behind.
7. Grunting, screaming, cussing and otherwise making noise are all welcome and encouraged during a workout. There is such a thing as gentle, quiet strength, although most of us haven’t mastered that yet. Also remember that there can be such a thing as too loud, crass, gross, or rude – please be respectful.
Row, Burpee & Jerk

Thursday, November 19th, 2009Fix Yourself
Wednesday, November 18th, 2009UPDATE: The National Academy of Sports Medicine has approved this course for 1.6 CEU’s. I know other certifying bodies (such as ACSM) will recognize these credits, as well. If you’re a professional trainer looking for some continuing education, this is a great opportunity!
Join us for a 2 day comprehensive SMR clinic February 27th and 28th. We will work every body part and you will find tight muscle you never knew existed. The course includes several hundred dollars worth of the best myofacial release/trigger point tools on the market. You can continue to work on yourself at home.
Part of successful long term fitness is managing the quality of your own soft tissue. Self Myofacial Release (SMR) is an exceptional way to handle your own business.
Davis’s Law: tight muscles stay tight, and weak muscles stay weak. Soft tissue models along lines of stress. In other words your body is not going to correct itself. If your hip flexors are tight and your ass is weak, the tilt in your pelvis will not get any better until you address the issues.
Start the New Year out with a more efficient body. If you are training with resistance in your own body, you are doing twice the work than you need to perform exercises. You are fighting against yourself!
Space is limited so sign up before the class is closed.
