Fall is here! But where are you? Don't miss the opportunity to train in some of this great weather that we are having right now. We've got some new toys in the box and they are dieing to be used. Start the fall-winter out right by re-focusing on your fitness goals. We are starting another strength cycle this week, so don't miss it.

The time for change is today. There is no better time than that of today...

Boosting your TESTOSTERONE and Growth Hormone! 

Want to grow faster, be stronger, develop more bone mass, muscle mass and have more sex drive? Exercise and lifestyle are key factors to helping us with all of these areas. There is overwhelming research to show that exercise and proper diet can support improved testosterone and HGH production. Males and females need these two essential hormones to support a myriad of biological functions. Thus, the power of CrossFit! High intensity exercise gives your body a boost of nuero-endocrine activity that is second to none. There is more evidence than ever that daily exercise and proper eating can stimulate levels of these hormones. The normal regression of testosterone levels is approx. 1-1.3% per year starting at the fourth decade of life. So, no matter what, if you are a 40 year old male, you are automatically producing less. One way to think about body functions and fitness is this, there is no steady state to human fitness! You are either progressing forward or rolling backward. So, keep on training, supporting your training with proper diet and resting and performing daily mobility and stretching.

Ok, the jury has voted and it looks like we will be doing Fight Gone Bad @ 9am @ our box on Saturday. We will all plan to meet at 9 am for the WOD. Let's all try to be here. This will be a good opportunity to meet members who you have not met in the box before. Donations will be accepted and they will all go to the FGB V fundraiser for The Wounded Warrior Project and Live Strong! The 8am class and 10am class will be cancelled. If you are an On-Ramp athlete, come at nine and we will still have class.

Ranch WOD anyone! Once the summer heat cools and the dust settles, a Ranch WOD is coming and maybe more than one. I know it appears a little redneck, but I assure you, it will be fun! How about a ranch WOD with tactical shooting, trail run and climbing? Can't wait!
