From Creative to Starke

From Creative to Starke

We are one month away from celebrating our two-year anniversary and I can’t believe all the changes we've have made in the past couple years.

We have changed the way we program, the way we coach, the way we have learned, and taught athletes. We have grown in numbers, we're stronger, fitter, leaner, meaner, faster, and more technical.

One of the biggest changes was that we became a CrossFit affiliate (Starke Crossfit). This significant change has helped us to become a part of a local and global community of individuals motivated to learn more, train harder, and challenge themselves in ways they never thought possible.

The workouts that I have had people doing for the past 11 years have never been “normal” but becoming part of the CrossFit community has challenged us in different ways mentally and physically and it has changed the coach and athlete I have become.

With everything that has gone on over the past 2 years it has made me rethink our name “Creative Conditioning”.

Conditioning is obviously needed in anything that we do but strength is the component required to support the demands of the task at hand.

Strength is required to support our skeletal system, posture, and the ability to maintain proper form during any type of exercise in the gym or out in the real world. Strength will support us while bending, twisting, lifting, and carrying.

After lots of self-debates and consultation with an awesome focus group we came to a unanimous decision to adopt the name Starke Strength & Conditioning.

I want to thank everyone for all of your support with our growth and through these changes. In a few days we will have our brand new website up and running for your viewing pleasure.

Our new Facebook Page Starke Strength & Conditioning is up and running so please head over and “Like” us to keep up with everything that we are doing and stay updated with all the cool things happening in our box. 

Thanks again everyone things are only going to get better!

Paul
