There is no better way to kick off 2016 than with Couch to CrossFit at CrossFit Renaissance! Yes, it is sort of a cliche – new year, new goals, new you. You are going to start Couch to CrossFit with questions: Can I get in shape? Can I lose weight? Can I get stronger? Can I do CrossFit? Can I stick with a fitness program to improve my life? Do I have time for this?

Here is the difference: you are going to finish the program with answers! YES you can! At the end of the Couch to CrossFit program, you are going to be motivated and ready to take over the world as a stronger, happier, healthier version of YOU!

DO NOT THINK ABOUT STARTING – JUST START!

We’re going to try a fun experiment this month. It’s called CrossFit. For real. One thing I know for sure, getting fit is HARD! Although we’ve never really strayed too far from Coach Glassman’s original template for our programming here at CrossFit Renaissance, we are not 100% true to it.

  Your experience here is extremely important to us. When you first joined CFR, you had some specific goals. We want you to not only…

Hey Everyone!

We are going to be programming the OPEN workout on Fridays, same as the last few years.

You should do your very best to be judged in a class on Friday.

We will have some time on Saturday morning as well for judging, but I can’t guarantee it.

Also if you haven’t signed up yet, please do so as soon.

CFR Competitors Group

The CrossFit Games Open begins in 6 weeks! For those of you looking to step your game up, we will be holding a 6 weeks competitors course. We will focus together ,as a group, on skills, olympic lifts and advanced conditioning. After years of competing and preparing for the Open, we can anticipate with high confidence: the time domains, skills needed, and movements required to be as prepared as possible to do your best!

The competitors group will meet once per week on Saturdays from 11a-12:30p with Kevin. In addition to meeting once per week there will also be homework assigned to be done on your own or with each other during the week to further prepare you for the open. The first session will be this saturday from 11a-1230pm.

We want to get started as soon as possible, so we will start this Saturday! This Saturday’s class will be free so you can come give it a shot. The cost for the course will be $75 which will also include free open gym (a $40.00 value) for you to do the assigned work.

Please sign up on MBO ASAP, so we can anticipate how many of you crazies to anticipate this weekend. Let’s ROCK!!!

open 2015

The beauty of CrossFit isn’t the bumper plates, or women doing pull-ups. It’s not even the “wod.” The beauty is, “Let me show you how to squat, friend.” The beauty is CARING. We care enough to learn more, to tell you when you can do better, to share. And everyone can share.

If you’re happy about your January, or joyful because of this week, you don’t have to hand out our business cards. You don’t have to refer seven others. Instead, I want you to teach your best friend to squat. If you care about them, teach them how to do an honest-to-God, heels-down, hips-back SQUAT.

I’ll even give you a prize. Post a picture and/or video of your friend squatting to our facebook page tomorrow, or email it to us, and they can do OnRamp for free! ($199 value.) It has to be good–you’ll have to teach them–and it has to be tomorrow. But if they do one good squat, they come to CFR for FREE!

Can you think of a better gift to give your best friend, your husband, your boss? I can’t.

Here’s our facebook page. You can email us a picture at [email protected] You can call us 215-760-5795 and we’ll give you a number to text with a pic. Submit by 9pm on the 9th, please.

Fit It Forward Challenge: Teach a friend to squat.

Sitting down and standing up will save your knees, your health, and maybe your life. We are doing the January squat challenge here at CFR. You don’t have to be that extreme, but when your husband is 80 and wants to get out of bed to pee without help…you’ll BOTH thank us.

We’ve got a prize for your friend, coworker or spouse who learns to squat under your guidance today. Click here to see it!

Tag yourself in this picture on the CFR facebook page and make it your profile pic for the week! You don’t have to tell anyone what it means if you don’t want to, but we wanna know that the CFR Family is doing some good out there!

The picture looks like this:
