This weekend Derek and I spent Saturday with Steve Maxwell, a great coach and class act. Steve has been involved in fitness for over 40 years, and coaching for over 35 of them- so needless to say, he has a trick or two up his sleeve. We took notes, learned a ton, and now are looking try out some new tricks! Get ready…

“It’s not inherited talent that determines how good at something we will be, but rather how hard we are willing to work.”
Words to live by! This article from the Harvard Business Review is a great synopsis of several books which touch on the topic of performance, and how it is practice, not genetics, that build champions- on the field, in the lab, in the boardroom. The author, Tony Schwartz, not only packs a TON of great thoughts into his piece (the six keys of being excellent are, well… …excellent) but also suggests a stack of reading on the subject if you are so inclined.
Check it out. Let me know what you think, either at the gym or via the comments section.

This weekend we are proud to bring Erin Karshner to the box for a two-day Olympic lifting seminar. Erin brings an impressive resume to Coeur d’Alene: aside from some HUGE lifts, Erin has spent time as an athlete-in-residence at the Olympic Training Center, competed internationally, and is a Tier 1 Certified Olympic Lifts Coach. This seminar is CrossFit certified, and all attendees will receive an attendance certification from CrossFit HQ. There are still spaces available, at a cost of $595 per seat. We are all students of Oly lifting, and this is a GREAT opportunity to learn from someone who has dedicated a large portion of her life to the perfection of technique- don’t pass it up!

What Is It?
Fight Gone Bad began as a fundraising event in 2006. From those humble beginnings and with the support of the CrossFit community, we’ve proven what a small, totally committed group of people can accomplish. The first four editions of Fight Gone Bad have raised a combined total of more than $2 million.
Fight Gone Bad 5 opens its arms to benefit three charities this year: LIVESTRONG, Wounded Warrior Project and the CrossFit Foundation.
Fight Gone Bad 5 takes place on Saturday, September 25, 2010.
So, our team is going to join the fight! Everyone needs to go to the FGB home page, and click “Register.” You will then be asked to enter your information. Then, select to JOIN A TEAM and choose CrossFit Coeur d’Alene from the drop-down.

Part of being an athlete at CrossFit Coeur d’Alene means challenging yourself to constantly learn new movements. That may mean basic exercises like the squat, deadlift, and press for our novice athletes, or more complex compound motions like the muscle-up, snatch, or bent press for the more advanced athlete. There are endless exercises out there, we do our best to use them all!
