Flexible Flier

Justin demonstrates  fantastic hip mobility. In order to maximize your power, you NEED to become comfortable in the bottom position of your squat! Think of your hip as a spring. A well-oiled one. :) If you are working on getting low, start by mobilize the position of restriction. You’ll catch all of the components: fascia, joint capsule, muscle stiffness. Here’s tips on how! (And they can be done anywhere.)

Almost everyone gets down sometimes. (To those of you who come in EVERY DAY with determination, a sense of purpose, and extraordinary attitudes, you are INCREDIBLE and bring everyone up!) The important thing, however, is knowing how to get OUT of feeling down . Here’s some suggestions on Constructive Venting.

CrossFit Yoga is tomorrow night ~ Prepare to become long and lean! :) Kids must be as quiet as mice or left at home.

Iron-Souled Warriors

Memorial-Day

Not all the deeds done by our troops have been glorious, nor have all their missions been just.  But that is our responsibility, as the citizens of the United States. Our men and women in uniform served this nation.  Most contributed their time and energy.  Many contributed much more.  Some contributed all they had to give.

That’s what we should remember on Memorial Day.

Join us with CrossFit Camas as we come together and complete “Murph” Saturday @ 9:30AM. Bring a lawn chair, beverage and snacks for afterward if you wish. 

This will be the ONLY WOD on May 25th. You may still sign up on our board if you plan on attending on Saturday. CrossFit Camas is located at Hidden Brook Terrace 19005 SE 34th Street, Suite 106 Vancouver, WA 98683.

 

Put your back into it!

Congrats to Will on passing the police officer physical fitness test this weekend! You have worked tirelessly to improve and are always a blast to have in class. We are so proud of you!

It was an awesome weekend packed with PRs, friends, and super cool community events. Thanks to all of you who came out to run the Stride! Special props go to Ross, who put up a smokin’ time in the 5K! Zain, Rowan and Casey also set blistering times in their races.

We also had the great pleasure of hosting Regional practice on WODs 4 and 5. Special guests were team CrossFit Fort Vancouver, 2010 world champs and currently number 2 in the Northwest!

If you ran the Stride, kicked butt in the Saturday WOD, (sandbag runs – oh YEA! :) ) or just showed up to show your support at the Team practice, THANK YOU.

It was impossible to capture ALL the awesomeness, but check FB soon for the more of the action.

    That stinks! Zain's run is at 10:00 so we won't be able to come watch :(

Much to Celebrate

MothersDay-1

Happy Mother’s Day! We sure hope you enjoyed that 39 minute AMRAP this morning :)

Today was also a short-term farewell WOD for Ross #2 (Edge, Ninja, Honey Badger…) We all appreciate your service and we will miss you during your four months over seas. Stay safe over there!

“So I’m going to head down to the box and do an RX chipper WOD with C2B’s, OHS, KBS, DU’s and HSPU’s…”

What?? If you’re new and feeling lost in conversation with veteran CrossFitters, you might want to head over and study up on your CrossFit Terms, Acronyms, and Jargon.

In The Heat of Things

Here’s TL doing what most of you wanted to do during your planks today:

If this recent heat is any indicator of what it’s going to be like this summer, it’s really important that you read up on how to stay safe when exercising in higher temperatures. Remember that you need to be drinking extra water all day long, not just when you’re working out!

Heat and Exercise: Keeping it Cool in Hot Weather

Looking for a treat to cool you down? How about making some Fresh Fruit Pops.

Your Family is Our Family!

We love meeting your family members, especially when they’re a visiting CrossFitter! It was great to meet Kendra’s brother, Keith, today who was visiting all the way from CrossFit Progression in Minnesota. Way to jump right in and do a hard Saturday partner WOD with no questions asked!

On another note, a lot of you were asking earlier this week when doing the farmers carry workout, “Why do we have to do these?”. Well, number one, because that’s what the all powerful whiteboard told you to do :) Number two, they really are good for you! We (generally) don’t torture you for no good reason. Check out this article on why grip strength is so important:

One of the best days of the Year

It’s a day to celebrate! Congrats to Bryan on rolling into the early bird class and throwing down a new PR! Incredible. Nice way to start your birthday. :)

Dozens of you set or smashed your PRs today. You each deserve a leap-in-the-air high-five!! If I missed you in class, find someone to do that with right now. You’re hard work has really paid off!

Today is one of my favorite days of the year! When you see this handsome guy, please wish him a happy 29th birthday!
