Dutch Lowy Training Seminar at CrossFit Norcal
Later this month we have the pleasure of hosting Dutch Lowy's Trainer Development Seminar. Margie and myself attended this seminar at CF NorCal last January and came away with some really great ideas and different perspectives on running an affiliate. The seminar is based on Dutch's experiences traveling across the country observing various programs and differentiating between what works and what does not. Dutch spends considerable time on proper programming, scaling and the differences between training someone to compete in CrossFit versus someone just looking to improve their health and longevity. You'll also get to apply your skills by programing workouts for different objectives, leading small groups and putting together class outlines. This is a great seminar for anyone interested in or already training other individuals, Level 1 trainers who want to take the Level 2 and anyone who just wants a broader perspective on CrossFit style strength and conditioning.

Barbell warm-ups before "Grace"
A comprehensive warm-up is an essential component of any workout session. At SBK we spend anywhere from 12-15 minutes at the beginning of each class warming up, prepping the movement patterns and talking about how to tackle the WOD. Last Thursday before "Grace" we talked about some mechanical properties of materials and how they related to our workouts. Can you remember why it's important to "squeeze" instead of "jerk" the bar off the floor?
Aimee Anaya reps us hard.
Check out the upcoming Catalyst Athletics Weightlifting Seminar this May in Boston!
Everyone from SBK who went out to their last seminar in Boston came back with a much greater appreciation and understanding of the lifts. Greg and Aimee are a tremendous team who dissect the Snatch, Clean and Jerk from the floor up showing you not only how to effectively perform them, but also how to adjust them for your own body type. I Highly recommend checking this out if you want to take your lifts to the next level or if you're a coach interested in improving your ability to teach them.
If anyone's interested in going let us know so that we can coordinate travel and hotel arrangements ahead of time.
