Cleans, Woodchops and Knee Pops!


The women at Anderson High use 6 lb. and 8 lb. medicine balls to work their entire body. With the clean you engage your legs, hips, butt, shoulders and core. Woodchops work your core, arms and some legs. Knee pops require coordination and agility, while working your arms, core, back and legs. Keep it up ladies!

No Kimono Arms!


Karen and Delaney work their triceps at the Anderson High School Women's Only bootcamp this week. Each are doing different exercises that target the back of the arm, which is often a trouble-spot for women. But, working your triceps isn't just good for cosmetic reasons--it is the opposite muscle to the bicep and is necessary for functional fitness. No kimono arms!

Med Balls in Motion


The women at the Anderson High Bootcamp get moving with a med ball circuit! This versatile training tool does wonders for your core and, as you can see, can be done solo. The med ball doesn't have to be heavy to get you results, either. Most of the balls we use in CrossFit Central bootcamps are 6 lbs., with a few 4 lb. and 8 lb. med balls thrown in for variation.
