GRAND OPENING CELEBRATION-Saturday July 12th 12-3 pm

CrossFit training prepares us for the unexpected nature of life. We as human being do not know what physical challenges will confront us next. Will you have to fight for your life?...or, run for your life? Our work outs are constantly varied to elicit as broad and general an adaptation as possible. We do not specialize. We expose our weaknesses. We are CrossFit!!!

Elliot get's the drive!

"Today's Workout"
Back Squat 3, 3, 3, 3, 3
Front Squat 5, 5, 5, 5, 5
Overhead Squat 8, 8, 8, 8, 8

"Make haste slowly." - Jack LaLanne

Insulin is the hormone - produced by the pancreas - that allows glucose into cells where it can be utilized as fuel. Through bad luck (heredity) and lifestyle (too much dietary carbohydrate chiefly) your cells can become resistant to insulin...

Run 400 meters

"Pain is weakness leaving the body." - Anonymous

When it comes to exercise, results are driven by quality of work, not quantity. This is true of all physical training, especially what we do here at LALANNE FITNESS. Attention to mechanics and quality of movement is the key to long term health and performance improvements. We begin by learning the fundamental movements. Advancing to more difficult exercises only until we have mastered the basics. This is known as virtuosity. Here's my general rule of progression... 1st. Mechanics (learn how to do it right), 2nd. Consistency (do it right consistently over a period of weeks/months) and 3rd. Intensity (start to increase the intensity when you are ready!)

We are a School of Elite Fitness. We teach our students how to do CrossFit... safely and effectively!!!

The future of fitness is shorter, higher intensity workouts. Here at LALANNE FITNESS, the Workout of the Day is a timed event, usually 20 minutes or less. Our students track all of their results, which are measurable, observable and repeatable performances! CrossFit is The Sport of Fitness.

A group of students are briefed on the Workout of the Day!

"Many of Life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up." -Thomas Edison

Every workout should be a competitive event with yourself. At least thats how I see the "whiteboard" at every class. I am now at the point where I don't want to workout unless I am with someone else or in a class, not because I want to beat them, simply because the collective energy and accountability of the group is the only thing that pushes me harder than I would by myself! This camaraderie was huge during last Friday's "Filthy Fifty" workout of the day. We all came together and pushed through what seemed like an impossible task. Great job everyone!!!

This group completed all 500 repetitions of the "Fithy Fifty"

Today's Workout
