Announcement! Team Competition!
Bayou City CrossFit(location) is hosting a Team Competition and crawfish boil on Saturday, April 17 at 12:30pm. First WOD will start at 1:00pm and second WOD will be around 3pm. Each team is required to have 4 members (2 females and 2 males). Team fee is $100 and includes competition and food. They will also have a "SCALED" version of the WODs for those who are interested. If you do not want to participate in the workout you can go and eat for $10.
I hope we can get a team or two into this, let me know if you are interested.
And now and Update on the ongoing contest! Keep working hard guys because this is what you are working for! 1st place (best combination of body fat % loss AND strentgh percentage gain) wins...$400! Then overall body fat % loss gets $200, and overall strength % gain wins $200! Keep up the hard work! The final lifts will be done during the last 2 weeks of April and weigh ins will be the last week.
Congratualtions to Leah! She qualified for the CrossFit Games Regional in
I can not wait to go up and support her and I hope a few of you guys from the gym will be able to make the trip as well. Great job to Leah and Callum for participating at the sectional March 13-14th, tough workouts but a good time.
And a BIG THANKS to Drew, Lezlie, Brittani, Anna, and Bobby for coming out and supporting us! Hopefully next year more people will want to participate from CrossFit Katy, I know I am going to be working harder to be prepared!

The results have been more than I could have imagined and the Crossfit community has been great to be a part of, especially at Crossfit Katy. Looking forward to setting and reaching many new goals for next year.

Would anybody be interested in signing up for this 'Warrior Dash'up in Forney on May 1, 2009? Looks like a good time. Maybe we can get a group together and put our Crossfit Skills to use!....

That Warrior Dash looks pretty cool, just don't fall into the flame pit!
Neal, I like the books and keeping up with our lifts and workouts, great idea. Looking forward to this year.
Posted by: Drew Reeves | January 13, 2010 at 09:11 PM
Maybe we could the "Filthy Fifty" to prep for the Warrior Dash!!! Heck, let's do it anyway - i.e., Filthy Fifty (better NOW vs. July)
Neal, the books are great. Knowing the prev max, etc will help us all step it up.
Also, that scale is very cool. Bot one for home today! It also shows the Metabolic age - very cool.

FYI. The scale can be bought at Bed Bath & Beyond @ $100. Use one of those 20% off coupons from BBB. Fwiw BBB is a favorite store of non other than Cody!

It will be my one year anniversary on Tuesday (http://www.crossfitkaty.com/crossfit_katy/2009/03/monday-march-9th.html). That's me dying with a jump rope in my hand in the picture on the bottom right. Thanks for all the training, I am in the best shape of my life thanks to you guys (trainers and trainees). I didn't think I would ever see the results I have seen and enjoy working out. You have built a great program and great community of people that keeps improving. Thanks again and I look forward to many more years at Crossfit Katy.

Came across this website for those interested in tracking their WOD progress, meals, body fat, etc. The site also compares you to other Crossfitters around the country. http://beyondthewhiteboard.com/

matt that is a great site, but it cost money to join. i am a baller on a budget. so if you would like to pay for me that would be great.
Posted by: Callumb17 | March 12, 2010 at 10:12 AM
Callum...$3/month (or 10 cents a day). Come on man? I know you can cut out something to offset this cost....By the way, good luck this weekend.
