Today, it was an honor to host Greg Glassman, Founder of Crossfit Inc., at Crossfit Legacy.   With him was Lisa Lugo, Affiliate Program Director and all things…awesome!!!!
2 1/2 years ago, after finding Crossfit by accident, I would have never thought that the founder would be speaking at a Crossfit Affiliate to our local Northeast [...]

Another Hero WOD On Monday!!

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

Today our athletes had the “deer in the head-light look”
After the first round many of them had already been working between 8-10 min, and they quickly realized this was going to be a really long and challenging workout!
We welcomed back Tricia, having recovered from being sick, and Tracy returned from Florida, but it [...]

Team Workout and MMA on Saturday?

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

There was a great turnout on Saturday as we welcomed a couple new faces and familiar friends returned for a workout this weekend.
With a larger group, we divided people into pairs of similar fitness ability, and we called the workout….
“Dont Drop the Baby”…or “Toddler” (depending on the weight of the Kettlebell!)

Gymnastic Movement Practice!!

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

Our athletes discovered that practicing gymnastic movements can be really challenging especially when you are inverted!!!

Walnuts and Coffee???

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

HUH?
Walnuts and Coffee?    Apparently, according to Dave, they do not digest in 60min.    He consumed that before the workout and now this little WOD has a name…..
Checkout Dave working out in his jeans here.    Funny thing is, every other gym in Barberton would NOT allow him to workout in those clothes.   Apparently that is NOT [...]

Ring Dips, Turkish Get-up, Box Jumps, and Double Under

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

WOW!!!
I think there shoulders are going to be tired.   Today’s WOD was a mental and physical challenge…more so than normal as athletes really had to focus on maintaining proper control of the rings and then they had to control the load over their head with the Turkish Get Ups.
I am was impressed by the [...]
