If you haven't met Eric consider yourself introduced.
Eric started at the beginning of May with no CrossFit experience. He has been attending CrossFit classes almost every day and attending our weightlifting classes 2-3 times a week and it shows. I am proud of our members coming in not knowing how to squat, press, hinge, pull, or perform Olympic lifts. Eric is willing to take weight off to clean up a movement, scale when necessary, and is always giving 100% effort.
I take pride in our homegrown athletes and knowing that they have become the athletes they are because of the amazing coaches and environment they are a part of. We are lucky to have you as a part of our Starke crew Eric.

Thursday 8-04-16 WOD
For those of you Competing in the Starke Games this weekend today should be a rest/recovery and prep day. No lifting, No impact. If you want to come to the swim session at 11am you are welcome to work on some skills and drills in the water for efficiency but other than some light rowing or a bike mobility and some stretching is all you should be doing today. Friday's workout will be geared for you to get moving, get some lifting in and be ready for the weekend.
Take Thursday to get all your nutrition and hydration ready. You will be sweating a lot, burning a lot of calories and should be making sure that you have fuel ready for two days. There will be a lot of outdoor workouts as well so try to have some sun glasses, a hat, and sunscreen as well.
I will be sending out some more info to our athletes in the next day or so as well.
