Alchemy Nutrition & Wellness at CFSBK

Know a lot (or a little) about nutrition but can’t seem to make it work for you consistently? Have you tried diets like Paleo, vegan, Zone, counting macros, counting calories, intermittent fasting, you name it… to no avail? Did it work while you were “good,” but was eventually too hard to maintain and you “got off track”? Programs that ask for quick, wholesale changes often end up this way. Alchemy Nutrition & Wellness with our own Coaches Chris and Jess Fox offers a different approach.

What we offer

Many people know what they should be eating but lack the structure necessary to do so consistently. At Alchemy Nutrition & Wellness, we use a client centered coaching program to provide the structure and accountability you need to finally make nutrition work for you. It’s not a quick-fix, short-term diet. There’s no counting, complicated meal plans, or elimination of any particular food group. Working side by side with your coach over the course of a full year, you’ll develop the habits necessary to eat better today, tomorrow, and next week, and develop skills to be healthy for life.

What results you can expect

• A healthy relationship with food and the ability to enjoy it
• A deeper understanding of what foods to eat regularly and what serving sizes are appropriate, without the need to weigh and measure
• Independence from “dieting”
• Improved body composition and overall health
• Improved self esteem and confidence in other areas of your life

Head over to the Alchemy program page to learn more and get started on your nutrition journey! 

Yoga for Athletes Cancelled Today

Today’s 10am Yoga for Athletes class is cancelled. Still looking to do something other than CrossFit or Short Circuit this weekend? Don’t forget that we also offer Active Recovery at 11am today and tomorrow!

Book a Massage with Leah D. Today!

The dog days of summer are upon us, so you know what that means. Time to do something nice for yourself! In our never-ending quest to be your one-stop fitness shop, we’re very happy to offer massage therapy with Leah DeCesare, LMT. 

Leah is a licensed massage therapist in the state of New York, where she was born and raised. A graduate of the Swedish Institute College of Health Sciences in 2009, she brings a decade of professional experience to her table. Shortly after obtaining her license, she earned additional certifications in sports and medical massage. She has worked in personal training studios, chiropractic offices, private studios, various gyms, community health centers, and at a variety of races and athletic events.

Leah maintains that truly skilled massage therapy has been the most effective modality for any physical ailments she’s personally dealt with, and has made it her mission to frame it in the larger discussion of physical rehabilitation. Her sessions are resolution-oriented, incorporating myofascial release, deep tissue work, trigger point therapy, ART, and rhythmic proprioception rebalancing.

In tandem with her massage therapy study, Leah is informed by her own experiences as a competitive powerlifter since 2012. She competes within USA Powerlifting and is a former New York state record holder in her weight class’s Squat, Bench Press, Deadlift, and overall total in the raw open division. She has worked extensively with strength athletes since making lifting such an integral part of her life, so she understands common myoskeletal issues they often develop.

Behind the Desk: Julie Barnard

Over the past few weeks we’ve been bringing blog readers new installments of our Behind the Desk series, in which we talk to our beloved and much appreciated front desk staff! These CrossFitters take care of the important duties of checking in our members, handling walk-ins, tidying up after classes, and so many other things that it would take forever to list them. They are the glue that holds this gym together. Last week, we learned more about Aaron W. This week, let’s find out about a front desker who has been around since before we had a front desk…

Name (and any nicknames):

Julie Barnard, a.k.a. JB, a.k.a. OGJB

Where were you born and where did you grow up?

Born in Columbus, Ohio (GO BUCKEYES) and raised on Bainbridge Island, Washington.

How long have you been CrossFitting, and how did you arrive at CFSBK?

I can’t remember exactly when I joined the gym, but it was back when we paid by the honor system in an envelope and signed ourselves into class in a notebook. I was dating someone who had a Total and was all whaaat is theeeeese and that was all it took! I kept CFSBK when we broke up.

Program your dream workout:

“Pigs in a Blanket”

AMRAP 20 Minutes:
20 Sit-Ups
10 Slam Balls

Ask me about that time I…

Climbed across a chain-link fence that borders the Gowanus. As in: fence, JB’s hands-and-toes death grip, Gowanus.

What are you recommending right now?

I highly recommend the TV show Letterkenny. It’s like a charming and sweet version of It’s Always Sunny. I also am into the glassblowing reality show on Netflix called Blown Away and another reality show called Below Deck. It’s like Melrose Place but on a BOAT.

What are 3 (non-essential like food and water) things you can’t live without?

I cannot live without my e-reader. It’s one of the best gifts I’ve ever received. My tub of CBD/THC cream that I use for pain management. It’s EPIC and allows my busted body parts to actually move, and my little Rita pup’s little squishy ball. She passed away last year and it goes everywhere with me.

If you had to switch careers today, what would you choose to do?

I’m currently in a work transition and trying to figure out exactly that, but my fantasy job since I was little was to be a librarian.

What are you up to when you’re not at 597 Degraw Street?

I’m writing dad jokes and pairing them with cat photos, walking dogs, and documenting the graffiti scene in NYC.

What’s the first movie or album you ever loved?

The Clash’s first record The Clash.

You have friends or family coming to visit from out of town. What do you take them to do in NYC?

I take them to Coney Island about 2 hours before sunset. I make sure they have a nice roadie in a coffee cup and walk them down the boardwalk starting at Brighton, refreshing the roadies as we go, convince them to ride The Cyclone, get a corn dog at Nathan’s, and then repeat the walk back to catch the train at Brighton. Two views in one visit!

What are your favorite and least favorite lifts?

I’m not doing much barbell work these days due to some injuries, but when I was in Starting Strength with Jeremy, I loved that I finally achieved my first, and second and third, Chin-Ups. That is my favorite achievement and lift (do you get it?). My least favorite anything has always been Front Squats.

Do you have any front-desk public service announcements?

I definitely do! We love when you check-in. Please check-in. We love seeing your sweet faces at the front desk checking in! I want to take this opportunity to give a shoutout to whoever is pranking the fridge whenever I stock it during my shifts. Well played whoever you are, taking exactly the center drink out of the middle row, well played.

Active Life Strength Starts Tomorrow!

Get out of pain, stay out of pain, strengthen your weaknesses, and improve mobility and movement patterns, all while getting stronger! This is a predominantly strength-based class specifically programmed to strengthen movements and improve positions based on your individual needs.

The Active Life methods help athletes of all levels identify the root causes of their pain, injuries, and plateaus, and provide solutions for alleviating and eliminating those limitations through strength training, hands on treatment, corrective movements, and program modification. As the Head Coach at Active Life Athletics, Coach Keith worked closely with the Active Life doctors as they developed the system and led the charge to incorporate it into a gym model. Using those principles, this program will help you identify your individual weaknesses and limitations, guide you through the necessary strength and mobility exercises, and get you moving and lifting more efficiently, with less pain. A pain-free athlete is a confident athlete, and a confident athlete is a dangerous athlete. If your goal is to look better, feel better, and go hard into your 80s, this program will help you set and maintain the foundation.

For more information on The Active Life, check out:

  • The Active Life on YouTube

Schedule

AM Cycle
July 30th, 2019 – September 19th, 2019
Tuesdays at 10am
Thursdays at 9am
2x per week for 8 weeks

Register Here! 

Cost

The cost is $160 per month ($320 total plus NY state sales tax). The first charge will occur at the time of registration and the second payment of $160 will occur automatically 1 month later. This cycle is open to all CFSBK members as well as CrossFitters from other affiliates.

(Please note that you are committing to specific days and times and there be no refunds for any missed classes or late cancellations.)

What happens in class?

We will start with testing your single leg strength relative to your Back Squat, your Deadlift stamina relative to your absolute strength, your 1-arm carry ability, and your upper body pressing and pulling. You will then receive progressive strength work during each class to address your weaknesses based on of your test results.

In addition, we will identify your general movement limitations through mobility and flexibility assessments. Each athlete will receive an individualized “Not for Time” piece to complete as a warm up/cool down for CrossFit group class or during standardized warm-ups to address these limitations through corrective movements, stretches, and holds.

Testimonials

“It was nice to delve into mobility and strength issues and focus on only a few movements (Squat, Deadlift, Farmer’s Carry, High Pull, and Overhead Press) that will improve them. I also was grateful to have a workout tailored for my needs, which will help me improve and which will be valuable indefinitely because I can add weight to many of the moves (i.e. Overhead Carry). Pain/soreness was less the impetus for my decision to take Active Life Strength than the hope that I can improve mobility and upper-body strength. ALS was a great addition to regular classes. I’m 56, so there are limits to what I can achieve, but the class gave me hope that with effort and focus I can reach a higher level”—Paul B.

“I liked how the program was tailored for each person’s situation. I thought the personalized quality work assigned to each person was spot-on and really helped address my weaknesses. I would totally take this class again. I definitely felt improvements in the areas I was experiencing pain. My strength has improved as well. I feel more stable in my upper body. I still have a way to go to balance out a strength discrepancy in my legs, but now I know what to pay attention to and have been given the strategy to continue to work on that. As a bonus, I have gained a bit more flexibility and mobility in areas I didn’t know needed it.”—Maria M.
