CROSSFIT 305 Our first choice for names has been accepted, we are now Croissfit305. Shout it from the mountains. STARTING 1-12-09 M-W-F CrossFit group classes at 7am, 9am and 6pm. Saturdays at 11 and 1 with Foundations Saturdays at noon. Foundations is not required but encouraged as it will give you a firm handle on the nine essential movements of CrossFit as well as address any specific needs you have in a small group setting. All classes will have at least one CF certified trainer, usually two as well as peer coaching. Expect a good warm up and technique work followed by the Workout of the Day, which will be taken from the main page most days, although we reserve the right to throw other things at you to keep things varied and on days where the WOD is short expect skill work. We will still offer one on one coaching throughout the day and will be adding more class times as required.

Sunday WODDeadlift5 sets of 3 Warmup…20 lb vest. for all exercises185 deadlift x10chin up x540 lb Kettlebell snatch x5 per armburpee x53 rounds, rest as needed Then, against better judgment, Deadlift…265 x3225 x3205 x3 This led me to go home and read Starting Strength’s section on deadlifting…again. My body is not built for this lift but in order to teach it I have to master it.
Dominic and Pete both pulled 365 x3, Dom hit 385 once. Way to go you compact f#$%ers. Pete then did 50 burpees in a blazing 2:06…way to GO!!! Joe did 275 or something thrice on the DL and set a new PR in the mile run of 5:52. In non lifting news… MORE JERKY!!!
(yes, those are jerky funderwear…)
How to make jerky while you sleep (mostly)… 1 or 2 pounds top sirloin beef, thin sliced (ask the butcher)Any amount of any marinade/spice/sauce Combine ingredients, let it soak fro as long as you feel appropriate. Pre heat oven to 175 degrees.Cover your bottom oven rack with foil and lay the beef out on the top rackLet it bake (dehydrate essentially) for 8-10 hours (I do this overnight and have a great snack for the whole family and friends the next day.)Remove and enjoy a tasty snack that has none of the preservatives of the store bought variety and twice the flavor at a quarter the cost. Not that this stuff will last, but don’t let it sit around for more than a week.
In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute.The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. On call of “rotate”, the athletes must move to next station immediately for best score.

So, for the last 13 years I have been traveling, playing music until ungodly hours of the night and generally wasting time on New Years Eve. This time I sat home, ate lobster tail, went to bed at eleven and woke up and did a 5k in the morning. It was the New Years gift I could have given myself. Instead of being tired for three days after, I had energy all day. Later on in the day Pete (who also did the 5k…his first road race!) and I met at the Garage for…
