HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, THERE WERE A FEW PROUD FATHER'S YESTERDAY AT OUR GRAND OPENING.

Troy teaching the Kettlebell Swing!

Thanks to everyone that has helped us get this going.

We had an awesome turnout Saturday, things are starting to get rolling. Come in for a free workout and see what we are all about. Our training program is scaleable and designed to bring functional movement back to everyone. You won't find mirrors or Nautilus equipment, you will just find great trainers willing to work with everyone. We are based on CrossFit fundamentals mixed with Kettlebell training. You will rarely do the same workout and will without fail gain mobility, flexibility and endurance.

For our "Firebreathers", go buy some flat soled shoes and get ready to work!

JD took the opportunity to smile for the camera and then I realized he had a 20" box, switched it out with the 24" box and he didn't pause for anymore photo ops.

Thanks to Craig and JD for giving our training style a shot, hope to see both of you back in on a regular basis!

All of our workouts are based off of the CrossFit methods mixed with unique training equipment. Take a look at the links below and many of your questions will be answered. We mix in kettlebell work into our workouts and focus on teaching the proper technique without fail. Each class will have a trainer and most likely you will never do the same workout twice!! Our trainers are highly motivated.

2) CrossFit Exerices http://www.crossfit.com/cf-info/excercise.html

It is amazing what you can do with a 50' rope, crazy ideas. Today was very succesful, we taught our first training sessions. Brian has officially learned the CrossFit squat through squat therapy.

All of the people we have met have been great, tell your friends, bring your family. We can train kids as well, it is pretty neat to see their eyes light up when they see rings!

Troy and I want to thank everyone that has patiently waited for us to open our doors to the public. Please contact either one of us with any questions or concerns.

Check out the Calendar for times:

Troy and Eric are leading the charge, if you want a challenge and are ready for the best CrossFit based Boot Camps in Columbus, Ohio come on out for a free training session.

Troy Taylor, Rogue trainer, during the Russian Kettlebell Challenge Snatch Test. Troy had to perform 64 24kilo/53lb snatches, switching arms once without setting it back down. Troy had performed the snatch with a 35lb kettlebell only so he learned very quickly that this would be a test of will for him. Troy passed as part of his instructor certification. Troy & Bill are now both certified RKC instructors.

Bill will be teaching kettlebell training sessions on Saturday and Sunday at 1PM. The training session will consist of skills and a fun packed workout at the end. I guarantee this will be unlike any other workout you have ever tried.

SEE YOU THIS WEEKEND

Troy and Eric have been busy teaching the 1st ever official CrossFit based Boot Camp classes in Columbus, Ohio. We have been a CrossFit affiliate since October of 2006 and can't wait to bring fundamental strength training at our new facility.

We have held 10 classes this week already and everyone loves it! I think many are surprised that the workouts can be performed by anyone with the proper coaching. We start everyone at their own pace to get a feel for how the workouts will task them.

Troy's wife Sara Taylor and Tobey McBride are learning very quickly to love this new approach to training.

Check out our Boot Camp schedule at our calendar: Boot Camp Schedule

After a final in Business Law I visited Doug Chapman's Hyperfit USA to take a look at his Boot Camp classes. Doug has some pretty great people at HyperFit. If you are ever in Ann Arbor stop by his 9000 sq ft facility.

J, Damon, Chris & Brian in front. Damon & Chris were in town on business and are starting an affiliate out in Utah. I am always impressed with the people that are involved in CrossFit. J is a sprinter and student at Columbus State & Brian is in the 121st Security Forces unit with Troy.

Tobey, Jaime, Chuck, Sean and Dino watch as Troy teaches the press. Everyone that has made it out to the classes this week is already showing tremendous progress.

BOOT CAMP TRAINING SESSION SUNDAY AT NOON - COME IN FOR A FREE TRAINING SESSION!!! ALL ARE WELCOME, WE CAN TAILOR THE WORKOUTS TO FIT ANYONE'S ABILITIES.

We held our first kettlebell class on Saturday. I taught the Swing & Turkish Getup, every week we will learn new skills and follow the skill work with a workout. Expect a mixture of dynamic movements with "grinds" ex. presses.

Kettlebells are great for golfers, baseball and every sport that requires explosive movement. If you don't know what a kettlebell is or are curious just stop in and we will answer all of your questions.

Tobey making the kettlebell snatch look easy, great job!

Jessica, very good form, I am always amazed how quickly everyone begins nailing the basics. Eric Jones, Rogue Trainer, did an outstanding job tonight running 4 classes today. We will continue to pull new workouts from the tumbler to keep it constantly varied. In our 2nd week we continue to meet some really great people, and everyone is learning quickly that the Boot Camp session is scaleable to everyone!
