Thanks to everyone that helped out on the 18th of February with big move. I love the new space and hopefully you have enjoyed it as well. We are already planning to hold our first annual CFM Competition.
CrossFit Macomb is growing up. With this growth we are working on buttoning up some policies. Most of this should not effect you. We are also bringing on some additional Trainers and Spotters. We will announce this later, but please recognize that we are adding some people with some specific roles. All of this is only making sure that we continue to run efficiently and to provide you with the best training, environment, and CrossFit community around.
Paleo Challenge Winners
Congratulations to the Paleo Challenge winners!
1st Place: Doug R
2nd Place: Steph (Sammy) M
3rd Place: Sandy L
Great job to everyone. Those 6 weeks were tough but definitely worth it. Hopefully we made some lifestyle changes in how we eat. Most people try to find a good balance between Paleo, zone, and "normal" eating. That balance is usually 80% Paleo. It is important to remember that trash in equals trash out. What that means is that it is essential to fuel our body with good sources of whole foods such as meat, veggies, some fruit, nuts and seeds.
The CrossFit Games
February started the 2012 CrossFit Games season. We are into week 2 of the CrossFit Games Open. Both week 1 and week 2 were grueling. We will see if week 3 is another AMRAP...
Membership Accounts
Starting in March we will be moving the activation of new memberships to the first of the month. I have been getting a lot of feedback saying that having the memberships activate throughout the month is confusing. So, put a reminder on your calendar that memberships are to be renewed on the 1st of each month and must be paid by the 15th of the month. One of the policies that we had is that there is a $15 late fee if your membership is not received by the 15th of the month. (This has not been a problem just wanted to remind you of it with this change to membership activation).
The Macombies
We wanted to start a new tradition at CrossFit Macomb that recognizes our members for their extraordinary efforts, unique personalities, and bring attention to some of the fun that we have. Each month we will highlight one or two athletes and award them this honor (with their permission). This month we are recognizing two individuals.
First the award for "Honorary 1st CFM Member" goes to Ben S! Ben has been with CFM since the start (even earlier). You can find him cleaning his body weight and performing an overhead squat with it.
