Singing about CrossFit!

I pretty much geek out on ANY cool accomplishments that our CrossFit clients share with us, and I have been training long enough to have heard and seen lots of great success stories.  But this little gem is something new—and something worth sharing.

Trisha Morgan has been training at CrossFit NorCal since June of last year.  She’s a wife, mom, teacher----and unbeknownst to me, a talented singer and actress.  For the last several months she (and her equally talented family!) have been preparing for the production of “Fiddler on the Roof.”
Trisha shared the other day that since she has been training—and preparing for the musical she has noticed a huge difference in the strength and endurance of her singing capacity.  Her improved ability to breathe and maintain strength through a song is correlated to the structural stability she has created from dead lifting.  I LOVE it when a client sees how transferable the CrossFit training is for every area of life.  Check out Trisha’s perfect dead lift posture.

Come watch Trisha belting out some tunes in “Fiddler on The Roof”, playing @ 7:30 Thursday, Friday and Saturday night at Chico Theater Company.
