The Evolution Of Fitness
This is the new machine we plan on using at the box. The shake weight uses dynamic inertia, constantly engaging your upper body muscles. Studies have proven that the shake weight increases upper body muscle activity by up to 300%.
Jon, Meagan, and I plan on getting Shake Weight certified by summer/ early fall. Get ready to feel the burn!
Designer Sweeteners
You guys have seen it: organic sweeteners designed to fool consumers into thinking they’re choosing a healthy option. Evaporated cane juice, sugar in the raw, blue agave nectar…
My take on it has always been the same; you’re body doesn’t care if it’s high fructose corn syrup or agave nectar. It ALL gets metabolized as sugar, and any form of sugar should be limited.
Check out this post for and expose’ on agave nectar. Post to comments if you have any questions.

The Wake n' Bacon
Alarm clocks- not Paleo. Bacon- Paleo. Need I say more?
Here’s how it works: put a frozen slice of bacon in the tray the night before, and instead of waking up to an annoying alarm, you are slowly awakened by the aroma of mouthwatering bacon.

Hello From Paradise
Hey everybody, it’s your favorite coach Derek here! I had a minute so I thought I would send you guys a note to let you know I’m doing great. I have been staying busy, getting some good training in and eating some great chow! I’ve been keeping a low profile, but people are discovering the fact that I’m part owner of the best gym in the northwest. My small number of devout followers is steadily growing and we’re having a lot of fun, but it’s nothing like being at the box. I just wish I could bring some of these peeps to CrossFit CDA and have you guys show them how we really do it! Hit me up on Facebook when you get a chance!
