We NEED your feedback.  Hybrid loves having an Olympic lifting class to help you all with the skills and techniques to lift efficiently.  However,the current Wednesday night 7:30pm slot is severely lacking for interest, so it will be changing.  Rather than just picking a time and hoping you all show up for it, we’re reaching out to you for some feedback.

 We’re looking to hold the class twice a week, with one of the days being in the morning, and another day in the evening.  What we need from you is this:

 1) Let me know if you even have interest in an Olympic Lifting Class

2) Let me know what days and times you’d like to see the class held.

 We’re looking to make this changeover quickly, so please give us some feedback soon.  You can e-mail me directly at james@hybridathletics.net

The results are in.  The winner of the first ever Paleo Challenge at Hybrid…

Andrew Jewett!!!

Andrew is a 7am crew member and always gives 100% on the workout, whether it’s his strength or not.  Now he’s shown how well rounded the diet is.  Andrew finished with 192 points, lost 17 pounds and 3.5″ from his stomach and an inch from his hips and chest!  All that AND he improved his WOD time!

It just goes to show that this program really works.  Nice Job Andrew.  Hope you keep up with it.

Thanks to EVERYONE else to participated in the challenge.  Keep up with the healthy lifestyle and keep working hard at the gym.  We’ll run another one of these challenges.

We’re also welcoming anyone who participated to give us some feedback.  Please e-mail Brianna at Briannadiorio@gmail.com with things you liked, didn’t like, and want to see changed so next time we can make it even better!

On April 28th, you can make a difference for a little girls family, and have some fun while you do it!  The great people at Shoreline Crossfit are holding an event for a young girl who’s family will have to be apart for the summer to allow her to have surgery.  The cause couldn’t be better, and the WOD’s couldn’t be more fun.  Hybrid is encouraging ALL of you to take a day from your schedule and donate or participate in the event “Girls for our Girl.”  Check out the link below to read about the cause, the event, and to register to compete.

Let’s show the local Crossfit Community how Hybrid can rally around a great cause!

Members.  Please help us keep Hybrid clean!  Everything has it’s place, and should be stored properly after you use it.  If you’re not sure of where something goes, ask one of the trainers.  Our storage room was a MESS this morning.

We’ll see you all Monday!!
