Info Session: Reducing your toxic load

Thursday, June 23rd at 7PM, CFW is hosting a free information session on how to reduce your exposure to toxins for better health.  We will provide some information on what to watch out for in your diet, the environment and the products you use in your home and on your body every day.  We will also have a guest speaker, Dr. Suzanne Buffie who will help us to understand product labels, what to avoid and what to look for in household and personal care products.

The idea for this event came about when we noticed that our members often ask for recommendations on what products to use to avoid toxic chemicals in their day to day lives.  We often give some general recommendations and give clients tools and resources so they can choose for themselves.

In our search for “clean” products, we’ve tried many, many products and only a few of them really stood out and we’ve decided to make them available to members of CFW who are interested.  So after the info session, we will have some personal care products from from Miessence and Olivier available for you to look at.   Feel free to just come for the info session, we don’t want anyone to feel obligated to try any of the products…

The session is free, and all CFW members and clients are welcome, along with any guests you may want to bring.

2011 CrossFit Games

The 2011 Reebok CrossFit Games will be held at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California for the second consecutive year. The ultimate test begins on Friday, July 29th and doesn’t stop until Sunday, July 31st.

At the center of the arena, the Games competitors will have to prove that they are not only fit but capable of handling the unknown. No one knows what the events will be. Every year the events are different. The best movements to test for fitness are a combination of gymnastics, powerlifting, Olympic lifting, jumping rope, climbing ropes, lengthy runs, and a vast amount of pure grunt work such as getting sandbags over a wall. But athletes never know what is required. In 2008, there was the hill. In 2009, there was the spike drive. In 2010, athletes had to do ring handstand push-ups and clear the 12-foot wall.
Only one thing is certain, each athlete will be thoroughly tested on their journey to be named the fittest man and fittest woman on Earth.

Fans from around the world will be able to keep up through our constant coverage and live streaming of the events. Click here to watch!
