SBK Does CSA!

We are excited to announce that SBK is hoping to pilot our first Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) project this September. In partnership with Herondale Farm and Sol Flower Farm, SBK would be a weekly pick up point for organic vegetables and pastured meat and chicken. You can workout and pick up your sustainably grown and raised groceries in one spot! We are so full service.

What’s a CSA?
(From Localharvest.org) “Community Supported Agriculture has become a popular way for consumers to buy local, seasonal food directly from a farmer. Here are the basics: a farmer offers a certain number of “shares” to the public. Typically the share consists of a box of vegetables. Interested consumers purchase a share (aka a “membership” or a “subscription”) and in return receive a box of seasonal produce each week throughout the farming season.”

About the Farms
Herondale Farm is located in Ancramdale, NY, not too far from Hudson. Farmer Jerry Peele raises cows, lambs, pigs and chickens on pasture using a traditional rotational grazing system. Cows and lambs are grassfed and finished, pigs and chickens primarily eat off the land with a small supplement of organic feed. Herondale leases part of its land to Sol Flower Farm, which grows a variety of organic vegetables and flowers.

About the Shares
Sol Flower Farm will offer a weekly box of veggies packed with whatever is being harvested from September through November. You’re likely to find yummy items like: summer squash, cucumbers, parsnips, beets, onions, eggplant, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, salad mix, dill, parsley, winter squash and lots more. Boxes are designed to feed 2-4 people.

Herondale Farm will have two kinds of monthly packages: a mixed meat package containing 15 lbs of a variety of steaks, roasts, and sausage from beef, lamb, pork; and a chicken package containing 10 lbs of a whole chicken plus parts and sausage. You can sign up for one or both!

All shares are 4 month memberships.

Got Questions?
Meet the Farmers next Wednesday, August 17 at 6pm at the gym. Jerry and Andy (the vegetable guy) will be down to talk to you about all the details of becoming a member. Please come by to learn more! RSVP to margie (at) crossfitsouthbrooklyn (dot) com so we can gauge interest and have enough seats.

PS You don’t have have to be a member of SBK to join – spread the word!

Flag Football Extravaganza at Prospect Park

We’ve already got 12 people signed up to play Flag Football on Sunday, August 21st.  This will be a day long picnic open to all members, friends, and family, during which time we will be playing some fairly non-competitive, all inclusive, gender neutral, footwear optional Flag Football.  Depending on interest we will split into 2-8 teams and play a small tournament to crown the champion of the Paleo Pigskin League (PPL.)    All are welcome to come down, grill, bring beverages or food, and hang.  For anyone interested in the actual playing of football (not just eating and drinking and lounging) please respond to Noah(AT)crossfitsouthbrooklyn.com with a general scale of football aptitude on a 1 (I don’t know a football from a baseball) to 5 (I taught Tom Brady everything he knows, including how to flip his hair so coyly.)
This is a great opportunity to use that fitness you’ve been working so hard to cultivate!

Time is almost up..

To sign up for event 2 of the Subway Series!  There are only a handful of spots left so don’t let them go to the riff raff from the other gyms, take the plunge and represent SBK.  It’s like Nike says: “Lets Do This!”

If you can’t perform a full range of motion handstand push-up, you can scale the movement by placing 2 or 3 abmats under your head.  Otherwise, you could choose between a strict dumbbell press or even standard Push-ups. The deadlift should feel somewhat heavy but each rep round shouldn’t take you more than 3 sets to complete.

CFSBK August Athlete of the Month: Katie Mohrhauser

By Coach Fox

The hottest month of the year brings you one of our hot new rising stars at CrossFit South
Brooklyn, Katie Mohrhauser. In the short time that she’s has been training with us at SBK Katie
has made quite an impression on the coaching staff. From showing up fresh out of Foundations
to support our team at the Open Sectionals, to enrolling in Coach Margie’s Tough Titsday class
to learn how to better approach a barbell, Katie has thrust herself into pursuit of being a better
athlete and being a member of our community as well. If you don’t know her yet then here’s
your chance to get to know her better.

Fox – Katie, you’re our August Athlete of the Month!

KM – Me? Really? I hope this isn’t a joke…Aren’t I too new to be considered? Will more senior
people be upset? Worries aside, thank you for thinking of me. I’m humbled, and of course,
nervous…

Fox – Yes, you! (I explained to Katie all the things written above and a few more). Nobody will
be upset, that’s not how SBKers roll. Ready? Tell me how you wound up at our roll up gate.

KM – My roommate Libby was constantly telling me about it. We lived in Norwalk, CT together
and she was doing CrossFit at CrossFit Stamford. She’d said she thought I’d love it but I was
too intimidated. I didn’t think I was strong or fit enough. Of course she told me all about it being
scalable and I was interested, but too afraid. Fast forward to my decision to move to New York
and I figured that if I was going to do one scary thing then I may as well do another. I was
thinking of living in Brooklyn, saw that CFSBK was right near where I was looking, saw that he
schedule would work for me, and just signed up. I figured I was going to do this and not half-
ass it. I didn’t do a teaser or anything because I knew that if I did I’d psyche myself out of doing
Foundations. I’m glad I didn’t do the teaser.

Fox – What was it like coming into this environment? Had you been going to “regular” gyms prior
to CrossFit?

KM – I hadn’t been going to regular gyms because I never liked them. I had been exposed to
training through athletics (Katie competed at the high school level in volleyball, tennis, and cross
country) but never really liked the treadmill/machine scene. I’d done some classes but again,
it wasn’t me. And like I said, I’m glad I didn’t do a teaser. Our first night of Foundations was a
Tuesday and you were coaching what I guess was the Competition Class and Jess was taking
it. It was crazy. If I’d done a teaser, I might not have come back.

Fox – Ha! You could have just pretended to be looking for BK Boulders. Well we’re sure glad
you stayed. What brought you to Brooklyn in the first place?

KM – I moved here for a job, but really I moved here to challenge myself. I grew up in small town
Iowa, attended the University of Iowa so of course I’m a big Hawkeyes fan, and just was ready

for change. Most of my friends were moving to Chicago which is nice but it just seemed like it
would be more of the same, i.e. sports and drinking, drinking and sports. Don’t get me wrong, I
love drinking and sports but I decided I didn’t want to be defined by it. I wanted more diversity
and New York, Brooklyn in particular, provided that.

Fox – So what, besides sports and beer, do you do outside of CrossFit? I think each female
AOM so far has told me knitting, do you knit?

KM – Ha! I tried it once and hated it so no. Honestly, CrossFit is my main thing and I talk about
it all the time (probably too much). I have a job as an accountant that I really enjoy, and I even
got two of my female accounting friends to start doing CrossFit. I don’t really do too much else
right now. I guess I’m cooking more at home, lots of paleo meals. The same roommate that
introduced me to CrossFit got me on a paleo diet. I feel great when I’m eating paleo, so now
I do more cooking at home. This is funny. My neighbor, let’s call him bi’s and tri’s guy…He’s
always giving me suggestions on what to add or subtract to my diet. He does the same thing
when he asks about my workouts. He’s actually told me not to lift heavy weights because I’ll get
too big. Me, really?

Fox – Bi’s and tri’s guy, I love it! Although I’ve probably been that guy before… what keeps you
coming back to CFSBK?

KM – The people. It’s kind of a mid-western sensibility here in that people are just nice. They’ll
come up and introduce themselves and have a conversation with you. There’s a mix of old and
new people here. I remember coming to Murph early on, being nervous, and meeting Jessica
Bailey. She just talked to me like she knew me. I also remember my first class and Noah
cheering me on while I struggled with cleans and running. He didn’t know me but it didn’t matter,
he was supporting me. People here seem to really care. I also like being around people who
have a similar mindset to mine in regards to a healthy lifestyle.

Fox – I really like your “mid-western sensibility” comment. That rings true, although I’d like to call
it “Brooklyn sensibility”. Tell me one gym thing you feel pretty good about and one you think you
suck at.

KM – Well I suck at the overhead stuff, all of it. It freaks me out, I’m not sure why. That was a
rough night in Foundations. I feel pretty good on squats and deadlifts though. They come more
natural to me and seem less complicated.

Fox – You’re enrolled in Coach Margie’s Tough Titsday class for ladies. How’s that treating you?

KM – Margie is intelligent, thoughtful, and patient; she brings all of those qualities to her class.
Her class is challenging – mentally and physically – and it’s something I look forward to all
week. I’m so happy to have the opportunity to work with her.

The other women are supportive and inspiring. Forget Mean Girls! Each woman wants to
see the others succeed as much as she wants to succeed herself. The sad truth is that it’s

sometimes hard to find a group of women that treat each other this well. I’m going to be sad
when it’s over!

Fox – Sounds like a great experience. Last question. Tell me what you think we should look for
in a future Athlete of the Month.

KM – Someone who represents the qualities I mentioned about why I love SBK, who introduces
themselves and is supportive. Someone who isn’t too self involved in their own workout to cheer
others on through theirs. The people who seem to train smart and not let ego get in the way are
the ones I look up to.
————–

Thanks to Katie for sitting with me for the dreaded Fox interview. We coaches are proud of what
she’s accomplished and look forward to having her be an inspiration to future SBK bad asses
down the road. When you see her in the gym be sure to show her your Cornhuskers shirt…

Hi, Remember us?

Goal hard or Go Home 

We’ve got a ton of whiteboards at SBK but the Goals and Accomplishments boards are perhaps the most important.  Training with a goal in mind and and having a solid plan to achieve it is the best most effective way to see results in the gym.  And a goal that isn’t written down is little more than a wish.  Starting today and moving forward we’d love to see this board filled with specific, timely, realistic goals that we can help you achieve.  Need help in getting started check out Coach Fox’s award-winning article “Goal Setting” under the CFSBK Articles and Media section. 

When you achieve something in the gym, no matter how big or seemingly small, put it under the accomplishments board!  We love nothing more than when you get a double under a muscle-up or your first push-up or pull-up.  Don’t keep it a secret share it with your friends and training partners.  Let the rewards of your perspiration be serve as their inspiration (I typed that in a Jesse Jackson voice!). 

Let’s get those boards filled up over the course of August!

Tonight’s Strongman Prep Workshop at South Brooklyn Weightlifting Club

This event is open to all CFSBKers whether or not you’re participating this weekend but Paul can accomodate up to 20 people at a time so please email Coach Fox at christian(at)crossfitsouthbrooklyn.com to RSVP. 

If you can Ride the Subway, You Can Do The Subway Series

The Subway Series was designed with ALL the members of our gyms in mind as a chance to get together and hit some challenging WODS as a community.   This event isn’t just for the local Annie Thorsdottir’s and Rich Fronings it’s for everyone.  Never competed in anything before?  A little intimidated?  No sweat homie, we got your back! All you have to do is sign up, come out and have a blast.  There are scaling options galore and it is a great opportunity to explore some other great gyms in the area, meet new friends and maybe learn something new about yourself and your abilities.  We hope you’ll join us in our fight to bring the trophy and bragging rights home to SBK this year! 

You can sign up for Saturdays first event here.  Remember it is capped at 90 people so sign up today!
