Check out Mike, Matt, Corey, and Alex meeting their first “Nasty Girls.”  Sorry it took so long to get this one posted, but hopefully you’ll think it was worth the wait!

Several nights a week we have different teams from Charlotte United come in for fitness workouts.  CrossFit is a perfect compliment to the sports specific work they do in their normal practices.  Being non-specific, CrossFit will expose any weaknesses the players have in their fitness level.  And from our–and every other CF gym’s–observation, the most progress will be shown by working on your weaknesses.

Find the exercise you hate, that’s probably the one that’s your weakest.  And work it until you don’t hate it anymore.  Then find the next one.

Great workout, U-15.  Can’t wait to see you next time.

Paul couldn’t let Coach’s 5:59 stand, so here he is, going after the BFT and 50 lb slam ball once again.  One caveat:  Apparently my camera stopped recording about 8 seconds before he finished.  I posted a still showing his final time.

I’ve also purchased a faster SD card, so unfortunate stops like that shouldn’t happen again.  Maybe someday we’ll get a decent camcorder to get even better quality videos.  Until, enjoy:

Coach A challenges Paul’s record at the BFT. Paul’s record is 7:02 I believe. Can anyone crack that five minute mark by March’s Cert? Check back later to see if Paul can beat his time and improve his PR!
