O-Lifting and more

Posted by Natalie on June 24, 2009 - Posted in News There are 4 comments, Add yours!

Three weeks ago we added an Olympic lifting class to our weekly schedule--Mondays @ 5:15, and Tuesday and Thursday @ 10AM. The classes have been popular for folks wanting to get some technical work on the Olympic Lifts.

The Olympic lifts include the Clean and Jerk, and the Snatch. Catalyst Athletics is a great resource for more info about the Olympic Lifts. Join us in a class next week and you’ll receive awesome coaching from Nicki that will improve your O-lifting skills--which ultimately means more power to kick ass in the WODs. This week Johnny S. has a new PR with an 80 kg (176#) clean and jerk. Rock on Johnny--all of your focus is paying off!

New next week--we’ll be making our Tuesday and Wednesday 1/2 hour WOD class into a full 1 hour Elements class! Come join the party!

What our clients have to say

When I first called you guys last March looking for a trainer I had no idea
what I was getting myself into. All I knew was that I had let myself go for
a couple of years, hated “regular” gyms and this sounded like a better
option. I had never actually done any sort of regimented working out, and as
you will probably recall Nicki, I was scared. You oh so wisely paired me up
with Angela and here I am almost 7 months later, skinny as I’ve been in 20
years and stronger and more fit than I’ve probably ever been. Thanks for
making a 40+ year old proud of herself again. And a special thanks to Angela
for kicking my butt a few times a week. I love it!

My journey with Natalie Taylor began when my seven year old patted my tummy and told me I was blubbery. Ouch! My goal when I met with Natalie was to get in shape. She developed my program based on my fitness level at that time. I always felt encouraged and I found that I really liked learning how to use my body correctly. I have also gained strength, while learning proper form, so that I can do day to day tasks without injury. I was able to help my husband lift our big gas bar-be-cue off the deck, it was easy and I didn’t get hurt. When I do yard work I don’t suffer the usual aches and pains of the past. I no longer wake up each morning feeling sore and stiff. I have never felt better in my forties! I cannot say enough about the great experience I have had working out at CrossFit NorCal with Natalie! I encourage anyone who wants to really get in shape to contact her today. What are you waiting for?
