Order up some Pumpkin lattes, bust out the hoodies and get ready for a chill in the air!  October is here. Monthly Focus: October brings us an all-new micro cycle – get hype!!! We’ll be drilling down these next four weeks on Bench Press and Toes to Bar.  With the bench press, we’ll bring a key horizontal pressing movement to the forefront.  This movement transfers into push-ups, dips, and handstand work, as well as builds tremendous stability for all overhead barbell lifts.  This strength element will certainly come into play in this month’s three shoulder intensive benchmarks too. Toes to bar will be our skill focus.  We’ll aim to increase capacity here, as well as overall efficiency in what seems to be everyone’s favorite gymnastics move. On Alternating Monday’s and Wednesdays in the month, we’ll be hitting the bench press.  Don’t miss out, these are more than glorified pump sessions....

September 2022 Member of the Month Did you know, that Tanya was the also the member of the month back in June of 2015? Whoa!!!! Tanya grew up in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. She was never into sports and winter PE (like cross-county skiing) was her least favorite subject in school (to the extent that her PE teacher was getting concerned about her future 😊) She moved to the U.S. in 2001. Fast forward to August 2014 when she noticed that growing older had some negative effects and decided to make some changes in her life. Her friend had been talking about his addiction to CrossFit for years and was a huge fan of Vinny and the CrossFit Thermal that Vinny had opened in Conshohocken. Tanya decided to give it a try. Somehow, she immediately fell in love with it and signed a contract right after her first 6 AM class. It...
