Hope For Haiti

Given our over three decades of experience in emergency preparedness and response in southern Haiti, we are well-positioned and uniquely qualified to use our best available resources to help make a difference. Our team lives and works in the communities we serve, and is made up of Haitian doctors, nurses, program managers, and others dedicated to improving their own country.

We are a four-star rated organization by Charity Navigator, a leading independent rating agency for nonprofit financial transparency and accountability. Charity Navigator also named us one of the Top 10 Humanitarian Relief Organizations, and published our article on the Top 5 Things to Consider When Supporting Disaster Relief Efforts.

Our current statement regarding the situation in Del Rio, TX: 

We are currently evaluating the most effective way for our organization to support the Haitian migrants who are being sent to Port-au-Prince and Cap-Haïtien from Del Rio, Texas. Although both of these cities are outside our impact area of the southern (Sud) department, we recognize the urgent and critical nature of the situation and the great need for assistance. For those looking to support organizations operating on the ground in Del Rio, we commend the work of the Haitian Bridge Alliance. We will continue to post any updates on this plus our response to the earthquake and COVID-19 on our Instagram account and here on our website.

Miriam recently ran a half marathon, lost 20lbs and has been coming to CrossFit super consistently. Incredible!!!

AntiGravity Strength Starts on 10/25

A new cycle Coach Ro‘s acclaimed Anti-Gravity Strength class starts Monday 10/25/21 This class always (and we mean always) sells out quickly, so get on it!
Each AG Strength class will be an hour long, focusing on the strength and skills needed to improve Pull-Ups, Handstand Push-Ups, dips, muscle ups, pistols, kipping handstand push ups, kipping pull ups, kipping dips, etc. This will include a variety of skill exercises, progressions, weighted and strict practice, and other techniques to teach, develop, and perfect your bodyweight/gymnastic skills. This fundamental strength work will carry over into other CrossFit gymnastics movements. The class meets 3 times per week for 8 weeks according to the schedule below.

SCHEDULE

10/25/2021-12/17/2021
Monday from 12:30pm – 1:30pm
Wednesday from 12:30pm – 1:30pm
Friday from 12:30pm – 1:30pm

COST AND ELIGIBILITY

The cost is $300 per month ($600 total plus NY sales tax). This cycle is open to all CFSBK members.

WHAT HAPPENS IN A CLASS?

The first class will begin with an assessment of each individual’s upper body push, pull, lower body and core strength. Once the assessment is completed, each AG Strength class will consist of skill work, strength development, and flexibility training based on your personal needs, goals, weaknesses, and strengths. If a member chooses to do a CrossFit group class on the same day, we recommend doing the skill and strength work from the AG Strength cycle first. Arturo can advise you on this on a case by case basis. Just ask!

STRENGTH

Back Squat
80%x4x5

Notes
Perform 1 work set every 2:00

ASSISTANCE

4-5 Sets of:
3-5 Strict Ring Muscle-Ups
12 Alternating Kettlebell Front Rack Reverse Lunges
90 Second Air Bike @ Recovery Pace

Notes
Below are three Ring Muscle-Up Progressions to consider. A, B & C all work the ring muscle-up transition with varying levels of support. If you cannot perform 3 Strict Pull-Ups and Ring Dips, working muscle-up progressions won’t be a very productive use of your time. Instead, choose option D

A: Unassisted Strict Muscle-Ups
B: Partner Assisted Strict Ring Muscle-Ups
C: Feet on Box Low Ring Muscle-Ups
D: 3 Banded Pull-Ups and 3 Matador or 8 Bench Dips. Make these as challenging as you can while keeping solid positions.

From Kelley: “The Wonderland Trail is a 93-mile trail that loops around Mt. Rainier in Washington. Over 9 days, my hiking buddies and I did the loop plus some extra credit miles, gaining (and losing) 22,000’ of elevation. This picture was taken at Indian Bar on the east side of the mountain, at the bottom of the Fryingpan Glacier and head of the Ohanapecash River. It was a pain in the ass to get to but my absolute favorite spot on trail! Grateful to be in the shape to make this a fun trip.”
Kelley is a CrossFit Group Class member and one of Coach Whitney’s Clients. In the pic above shes taking a break and doing some Shoulder CARs (Controlled Articular Rotations) on the trail.
