Spring is Here! (I think...)

Or is this what Spring is in Texas?...I forget. It sure has been windy and wet lately, though not wet enough. Mats are blowing away during class, and sometimes that run around the parking lot is that much tougher when you're facing a gale force wind. But, perhaps April will be kinder and gentler--a little more warm, predictable weather would be nice for once. Bring it on, April!

Free UTB Workout on Saturday!

On Saturday, March 15th, CrossFit Central is hosting a free community workout at 8:30 AM under the MoPac bridge at Lady Bird Lake. This is a perfect opportunity to introduce your family or friends to CrossFit and/or get an extra workout in this week! Come join others from the CrossFit community for a fun, free workout!

March Bootcamp...Brrr!


The first day of the March bootcamp was a chilly 30 degrees! Way to go ladies for sticking it out and getting in a great workout. Med balls were flying all over the place since we were wearing gloves, but we made it work. Hopefully the weather at 6 AM is going to start feeling like it feels at noon one of these days and we can leave the gloves, and scarves, and knit hats at home!

Kettlebells!

Okay, so I didn't make it to the kettlebell class due to having to stay at work late working on a project. BUT, Mike graciously added a short kettlebell circuit to our workout, and I'm hooked! I love these things! It's amazing the different movements that you can do with these things, and how much abs, legs, butt, and hips you use on most if not all movements. Very cool!
