Active Rest Day and ROM!

Build Up Your Shoulders!

Check this link out above! For those of you who don't, I highly recommend a subscription to the Crossfit Journal. It has new material daily and from various sources, not just pure Crossfitters. The above article is one of the best I have read as far as importance of building up your shoulder. I will have a copy printed up and at the box!

Get in and work on ROM and recovery today! Congratulations to Chris Wolf who got his first pull-up(and series of pull-ups for that matter) this morning! He said "It just felt right so I did it!" Who knows what could feel right for you today at the box!!!
