Details
The focus of the class is to go through the steps of the process. The goal at the end of the day... is to take your specific portion home and take the last cooking process if the items need to be baked. During the class, you get to take the finished products to begin with. Then, the class starts to begin to teach the process.
It's a casual atmosphere. We are not in a commercial kitchen... which brings the cost down. There are individual stations... so each person can experience the steps for themselves. Ths allows me to help the individual if they are "stuck" on a step. You can call it my own cooking "Circuit Cooking Class". Each class is done in a circuit training method.

Affiliate Cup Tryouts March 26-27

This year, the fight for "World's Fittest Gym" is going to be tougher than ever. Only the top several teams from each Regional will be invited to compete in Aromas. Last year we set limits for the North Pad WOD and impressed not only ourselves but many others as well. This year the challenge is at it’s highest and we are going to give it our best performance with our strongest athletes representing CFSC.
We will host a team tryout’s consisting of 3-5 WODS on Friday night the 26th (6:30PM) and Saturday morning/afternoon on the 27th. I will release more details on the WOD structure and point system soon. All you need to know as of today is, if you want to be on the best team in Aromas then register here.
If you are competing at sectionals and would like to compete on the CFSC affiliate team as well, don’t hesitate to register. If you are one of the top 20 seeds at the sectionals in LA ten choose the path you most desire, regionals on a team or regionals solo.
If you can complete 90% WOD as RX’d and are not looking to compete but looking for a great night and day of training, register as well.
CrossFit NLP Invitational Apr-10th
April 10, 2010Hope this update finds everyone in good spirits,
We are very close to finalizing the location for the event. I will say that both options on the table will offer a perfect venue to test your abilities and provide you a great atmosphere to compete, spectate, volunteer or judge.
We will have 3 divisions Masters, Intermediate and Advanced.
If you are considering which division to enter or if you should enter at all. We will post some information on Sunday regarding this. But for a basic rule of thumb. Advanced is rx. Intermediate and Masters are scaled for weight. So intermediate and masters should be able to do complete all wods but maybe they modify the weights or use the lower end bands for pullups. R.O.M will not be modified you must be able to do the movements in general.
There will be a overall affiliate champion as well. To determine the affiliate champion, we will consider # of competitors your box enters into the event and the results of individual competitors will be totaled to give us a Champion. In the event of a tie we will use the amount of support you get from your box, friends and family to determine the overall winner. Each box should try to use this as community building event and really get a strong show of support.
Competitors
As for registration we will be launching the registration site shortly. Once the site is up please sign up as soon as you can. Based on the preliminary feedback this event will sell out. If you are going to compete please email me your information to Registration@CrossFitNLP.com. I will add your name to list and send you a direct email when the registration site is live.
Spectators
Please come support your box. You have no idea how much this will mean to them as they are pouring their heart and soul out in pit. If you plan on attending as a spectator please send your info to Registration@CrossFitNLP.com. I will add your name to a list and send you a direct email once the registration site is live.
