exorcise your demons
We're happy to report that the intervention was successful and we've savedSharon certain death-by-elements frozen yogurt. You can tell by the grimmace that she's not thrilled but she'll come around... Think a 15 minute workout isn't enough? If thats your line of thinking you've clearly never ...

Guess who has a gymnastics background? In Evan's defense, it has only been a short time but his handstand walking has really improved. Just goes to prove you never know whats going on in the background... That truck driver you flipped off? Let me tell you his story. Let me tell you a littl...

No one likes Pauls ab-wheel-o-fun. Pretty funny and just about right on: 20 step story of a typical CrossFitter from Fletcher Fitness 1. Hear about CrossFit through someone that is annoying and obsessed. 2. Attend a Free class…and one of two things happen – you love it & you are hooked alread...

gaining
I came to CrossFit to lose weight..baby weight to be exact. If the ultimate goal of weight loss is to have the scale read a smaller number I will have to say that I have failed. The scale is no smaller than when I started 2 and 1/2 years ago. I have never been a big fan of failure and I don’t...
Wow, what a nice facial expression. Where have I seen that before....oh yeah, the old cannery!

Dan's been out with that nasty bug thats going around so it will probably be **days** before he knows we're picking on him. Post a caption to comments. I have a beanie or a WOD Book for whoever makes me laugh the hardest. No voting, no democracy - just a little fun on a snow day. Speaking of ...

not just for skiers
Who said slalom is just for skiers? Many things go "downhill" around here at 10am - thats when the fun begins! And since we were on the subject of bacon: Recently, an old friend who's been a vegetarian for more than 15 years shocked us with a story: Last weekend, she ate bacon. Several strip...

2010 year in review from Rainier CrossFit on Vimeo. One more time for a look into the past, reflect on the fun, the achievements, and the friendships inside the gym and out. Monday it's all about looking forward - new goals, new PR's, New Year. See you Monday!
Geez Carrie- you could've made a real comment. Ok- that's my comment for the "website comment" square:) Unless I'm thwarted!

All I want is.... BINGO!!!
Just to answer a few of the FAQ's- you're trying to get "bingo"s. 5 in a row across, down, or on the diagonal. Complete the task in the square, add your name and your score. There are a limited number of spots available in each square so once a square is filled it's out of play. In the pictur...

Why does upcoming change always make you reminisce about the past? What is it about a building that we’ll miss? After all, it’s just walls, a ceiling, a floor, and some doors, right? If we leave it behind does that mean that eventually we’ll forget it? Forget what we accomplished there? Forge...
I will miss--being able to run to the gym(only did it twice), the rocks in the driveway that we use for counting,& being able to use the train as an excuse. I will not miss--that poopy smell that we got occasionally, having to time your steps when running over the train tracks,& the crane guys taking our parking spaces.

I wouldn't want to be anywhere other than RCF every morning at 8:40. My home away from home- where I can visit w/my family. I have made my closest friends here. It's funny how intwined our lives become all over a little blood, sweat, and tears(sorry there's been more of those recently-I'm still hormonal). Can't wait for this new chapter in our crossfit lives to begin-but never leaving behind the many good memories the old building gave us. I will miss you 5403 Milwaukee Ave E.

(reposted from June 1, 2009) Have you ever wondered what it’s like to walk in my shoes? I’ve taught and I trained, I’ve led and I’ve followed, I’ve cried and I’ve cheered. I’ve made good and bad decisions. I’ve laid awake in bed planning this days Saturday Suck. I’ve wondered if it’s time t...

ok- but are you serious about the weight loss part? Maybe I can fit that into my 6 week program, who cares about a little extra diarrhea, and Dan will give me a kidney if I need one.

Tomorrow is a big day. On Ramp 14 begins their journey. RCF begins class times. Classes will look a lot like On Ramp, actually. We'll begin with a group warm-up, followed by some combination of technique work, strength work, and met-cons. We'll finish with some stretch, foam roll, mobility t...
Will we have scheduled bathroom breaks, since most of us have to go about 20 min into warming up. I would like to schedule my time before Richard and Dan(& Martha).

Anyone still sore? We tell all of the OnRampers that the soreness never truly goes away, it just roams around and becomes our constant companion. The amount of soreness certainly decreases and just when you're pain-free... WHAMO! Something gets you. From Medical News Today: "For centuries, ...
