 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

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!
