Balance
NPE’s The American Dream – OPT from OptimumPerformanceTraining on Vimeo.
I got to spend the weekend with James “OPT” FitzGerald, winner of the first CrossFit Games, in Scottsdale, Arizona a few weeks back. This video on one’s balance is thought provoking to say the least. We are EDCF are constantly striving for more balance in our programming for fitness as we hope you are constantly striving for more balance in your daily lives.

EDCF Turns 2 BBQ
On Saturday, September 14th, we will host a workout and BBQ at Lindsley Park (located about 3 blocks west of the gym). Instead of our regular Saturday workout, a workout in the park will be set up for everyone and their friends and family to participate in.

Our friends at CrossFit Underworld are hosting WOD For A Cure on Saturday, September 7th. This is a small AMRAP style competition with proceeds going towards lymphoma cancer research.
