michelle blisters.jpgMichelle with her first war wound.  There's certain tricks to avoiding blisters, but sometimes you just get 'em.  Here's an article in the Crossfit Journal that tells how to avoid Hand Rips and once you have one how to get it to heal faster.  The Crossfit Journal is $25 a year and an amazing resource -- a perfect gift to ask for this Christmas.  Put it at the top of your list!  :)

New times coming soon.
If you're new, email me so we can meet 1 on 1.
Call or email me if you have any questions.

Warning

Don't try Eugene Crossfit if you want to keep the drudgery in your workouts. There are plenty of workout plans that deliver little results, are boring, and don't really have a goal in mind.

Crossfit is very bothersome for people who like workouts like these.

Crossfit will change the way you think about your workouts, and by doing that you see amazing results. You immediatly learn to love to workout, to push your body, to try new things. The program you recieve here will make you fitter faster than anything you can imagine. Every client that has given it a month will testify.

You don't have to be an athlete to come. Heck, you can be in the worst shape of your life, I scale you back and ramp it up at a steady and safe pace. You'll have the results that you never thought possible in no time. And once you get there, you'll be thirsty for more. (instead of yo-yoing)

Eugene Crossfit is NOT a gym. It is a fitness school. In time, along with getting fit, you will learn technique on everything, how to apply intensity, the aspects of fitness, how and what to eat, how to coach your fellow mates, recovery, motivation, virtuosity, flexibility and much more.

Give me a call or shoot me an email for your free 1 on 1 introductory session. Lets get started now.
