Crossfit'n Anywhere!


Crossfit'n anywhere, especially under the bleachers here at Texas State University, is nothing new to my clients. Located right next to a track, this spot proves to be an ideal location for many workouts.
Cassie, pictured left, has gone to battle with many workouts here before. In her most recent, she re-tested a benchmark workout named "Cindy". Max rounds in 20 minutes of: 5 pullups, 10 pushups, and 15 squats is how this one goes, and in her first attempt done in mid May she cranked out 7 rounds done with jumping pullups, and push ups done from the knee. On 7-11-08, roughly 3 months later, she did 14 rounds with full pushups! She has greatly improved her strength, muscular endurance, lung capacity, and mechanical efficiency. Her next goal is to add full kipping pullups to her workouts, and with her athletic ability I have no doubt she will be there soon.

No one said it was going to be easy....


And Alyson knows this first hand! She has currently embarked on Mission: Buckle Down, or get buckled! Alyson made the necessary behavioral changes with her nutrition, and mentality, to keep working when the going gets tough. She is able to elevate her workouts to new intensities everyday, not to mention she does not shy away from embracing effort. ie...picture above

"Tunde Decidis"

Janese (top left) doing ball slams with a 20lb. basketball filled with sand(no bounce!), Cassie (middle) working on L-Pull ups, and Alyson (bottom) on the DB swings.
All three of these ladies have been super dedicated over the past month, having made exceptional gains in strength, lung capacity, and flexibility.




Alyson (left) has tremendous strength. Her improving cardiorespiratory endurance has her elevating her performance on workouts to new heights. Cassie (top middle) is a fast learner, and has all the natural ability to be elite. Her strength is coming fast, and her desire to be FIT puts her in the gym whenever she gets a chance. Janese (top left) also has tremendous strength, and her background in sports has proven to be a great foundation for her success. Her Olympic weightlifting skills are improving quickly. In only her first time to do OH squats she went for a max and hit 95lbs! I foresee great results within the next 6 weeks for these three.
