The CFW/203/Nor’Easter gang at Saturday’s Open 11.5 Workout.

One more Open WOD to go! We had a great time at CrossFit 203 for 11.5 and next weekend we’ll wrap up this series with 11.6 at CrossFit Nor’Easter. Thanks to CF 203 for hosting a great time this weekend!

Note: This could either be a late Sunday post or an early Monday post, so we’re going with early Monday and jumping ahead of the game!

Motivational words can be found over at CrossFit Lisbeth! Ass-kicking can be found in the gym! Kind words can be found when you call your momma! And sweet nothings better come from your partner or everybody is in trouble!

Monday’s Workout of the Day

Back squats and a treat! An outdoor bipedal treat! Exclamation points for everyone!

The Friday Happy Hour.

What’s up this week? Lots of fun. Yeah, you might be a little scared by our kind of “fun” . . . but so what? Are you going to be scared all your life? Or are you going to stop making excuses and decide to start being the person you always wanted to be? And live the life you always wanted to live? ‘Cause, quite honestly, I am! And you can too. Stop lurking, call us, and step through the doors to CFW. Have the courage to make your life better. We know the way and we’re ready to help. Sermon over. Now it’s your turn to act.

Heather gets ready to deadlift.

Schedule Alerts!

1.) There IS a noon class today!

2.) If you plan to be at the noon class on Thurs or Fri, text Lis or Jackie. No text = no class. Text and no-show = extra 800m run. Get your act together and make it happen!

3.) WE are hosting the Open Workout #4 HERE on Sat at 10am. Doors open at 9am. Grilling, beverages, and mayhem starts as soon as I’m supposed to do muscle-ups, because I don’t have one! And I’m doing this WOD anyhow and so should you! Stop your complaining, get over your fears, and get ready to throw 60 burpees down and dig in on some Overhead Squats! Think the workout looks daunting? Well, join the club! None of us signed up for CrossFit because it was easy! So, we got a plan for those who need to scale and we’ve got a determination to make this the most fun Open workout yet! Sign up HERE by 8pm on THURSDAY NIGHT. And remember, the inmates from CrossFit 203 and CrossFit Nor’Easter will be coming, so everybody lock up your dogs and check your wallets!

4.) No Free Intro Class this Sat at 9am. But call us if you want to schedule an intro class some other time! You don’t want to miss out on this fun or these results, trust me!

5.) Closed on Sunday. Tough Mudder folks, head over to the CFW private group on Facebook and we’ll talk about a trail run, maybe. Or maybe not.
