Mobility and Recovery at CrossFit South Brooklyn
Want to be more flexible? Move better? Perform better? Just feel better? Have you been "kinda stretching sometimes, sorta", but making little if any progress? Many folks recognize that they have range of motion deficits but are not sure how to go about getting results in reducing them.
…We can help!
We're rolling our next Mobility and Recovery Intensive. It will be held at 12pm on the following days:
Sat 2/20, Sun 2/28, Sat 3/6 and Sat 3/13
We're excited about the new format for the MRI which now also includes a Foam Roller and Self Myofacial release ball for all attendants. For more information on the cycle, click here or Register Here!
Have you taken the Mobility and Recovery Intensive before? What did you think of it?

We installed some storage shelves and a coat rack in the room by the espresso machine. When you get in, please put your stuff in that room instead of on the benches. Does anyone have any extra coat hangers they're willing to part with? Please post to comments if you do, we only need like 5-8 more.
Lost Ünd Found
We have a very large container full of clothing, ice skates, glasses and more water bottles than we know what to do with. The LÜF will be out by the small desk all week, please go through it before you leave and see if anything is yours. Most of the items have been there for more than 3 months, whatever we don't clear out by next Monday will be donated to charity. Get it!

Programming Note
Please come ready to do the posted workouts. For clarity, we'll be posting what WOD will be run on Rest Days too. It can be very challenging for the coaching staff to run several different workouts based on what people have missed or want to do. If you'd like to complete a missed workout, please arrive early or stay late to make it up on your own. As always, running classes have space and equipment priority.

Self Serve Espresso Guidelines

– Feel free to use one of our cups or mugs for your espresso/coffee. Please wash your cup and put it back immediately after finishing your drink.
– Directions on how to use the Nespresso can be found on the table. Otherwise you can ask a Coach.
– Please treat the machine and coffee station with care and respect. If you see a something out of place or messy, please clean it up. We want this to be a service everyone can enjoy responsibly.
Coats
Until we get the coat rack/cubbies installed, please try to put you coats and bags on the benches by the pull-up bar parts. If the couches are covered in bags, no one can enjoy them!
Thank you to whoever brought in the Chess Board. Check the comments for some ideas on how we can get a game going.
Attention SBK early birds, due to a DOB re-inspection tomorrow, the 6am and 7am classes will be consolidated to a single 6:30am class. All other classes are on as usual.
Willie assesses the pull-up bar components.
"The A Team", Anastacio and Armando recycled our old pull-up bar to make this custom system. It will be installed this week.
CrossFit South Brooklyn has reserved a spot for 3 men and 3 women for the 2010 North East Regional Qualifiers. A meeting for interested participants will be announced shortly.
We will be unfreezing contract suspensions today. If you don't receive an email regarding your account by 10pm please contact David(AT)CrossFitSouthBrooklyn.com. In related news, we're currently registering to move OFF Mind Body Online and onto Volusion. We have been very disappointed with MBO's software and are excited to move to a more user-friendly platform. It may take a week or two before everything is settled with Volusion. Stay tuned.
