Wine Country CrossFit

See the Games Live

Do you want to see the CrossFit Games live? Well now is the time to plan: As a CrossFit Affiliate in good standing we get early access to CrossFit Games tickets, and our gym has a few that are not yet spoken for–yes, YOU can go see the Games live and in person! If you would like to get your hands on these coveted seats then please let us know by April 21st. Once the tickets go out to the general public the good seats will be gone.

I have been a CrossFitter for 11 years, and I finally attended the CrossFit Games live in 2015. It was inspirational, motivational, fun and exciting, and I highly recommend it for anyone who loves the sport of fitness, and for those who love to be surrounded by a fit and healthy crowd. Please send an email here if you would like CrossFit Games tickets.

Busy Spring At Wine Country CrossFit

April 30 & May 1 we will host the Outlaw Barbell Seminar. This program is for both the experienced lifter who wants to improve their movement, and the novice lifter who wants to gain knowledge and experience. The investment of time and money is well spent! Sign up here.

Cinco De Beastmode is our very own 5th of May celebration. While many communities celebrate the Mexican army’s 1862 victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War (1861-1867) with drinking and debauchery, we celebrate with a hard workout! Register here to participate on the Wine Country CrossFit Team (called Boxed & Barreled). The money you pay to register feeds the hungry in America.  Feeling tight in the pocket-book because you are reading this blog on tax day? Get $10 off the registration with discount coupon GOLD at check-out. Use it before midnight on Tuesday, April 19. Don’t stress! Just come in and work hard, and stay for a taco and drink afterward.

Logistics for the day: AM classes will run as usual. 4.30 and 5.30 classes will transform into Cinco De Beastmode Heats that start at 5PM. Plan to stay for festivities after your heat with a visit to the taco truck and a drink from the margarita machine. Afternoon heats will be run by our very own Mexican Coach Richy Perez!

Get ready for swimsuit season with the Whole Life Challenge. The next eight-week challenge starts on May 7th, and we will have a Wine Country CrossFit Team. Sign up here. Are you ready to change what you eat and how you care for yourself to feel better than ever? This is the way! Participation is fun and easy, and there are three levels of participation which make it accessible to everyone. Learn the rules of the game here.

In January, I dove into the Whole Life Challenge as a way to invigorate the New Year. Over the eight weeks, I lost inches around my waist and moved from size 10 to size 6. As part of the WLC, we spend at least 10 minutes a day on mobility, and I felt great with the enforced focus! I’m excited to get back on track with the WLC that will start on May 7th. Join our team here.

Devote 10 minutes of your day to uncover your body composition with  the DXA Scan by Body Spec. The Body Spec truck will be parked in front of Wine Country CrossFit on May 9 and 10. New to  the DXA scan process, here’s a quick overview:

– Compare your bone density to others like you

– Identify long-term health risks
– Pinpoint the exact impact of a new training or diet plan

– Track progress over time, down to exact muscle and fat changes in different areas of the body
– Optimize your training to suit your body’s specific needs

The scan only takes ten minutes and can be completed fully clothed– just wear your workout clothes. There are still a few open slots and you can sign up here.
