Thank you everyone that came out to the 2015 State of Gym Address. We had just about one-third of our members show up.
We started off by celebrating some of our athletes. Our longest active member of 3.5 years, who has been with us shortly after we opened was Judy P. She is one of the 5:45AM morning crew members. Our most active member last year was Kelsey S. She came to 392 classes last year. Just behind her with 387 classes was Andrew W. Both Kelsey and Andrew have put in a lot of work last year and it has shown.
Next, we announced some changes to our pricing options. CrossFit Macomb is now offering Unlimited CrossFit Classes memberships for only $125 per month now. One of our goals was to make CrossFit more accessible and through our growth over the past year, we were able to lower our prices.
We have also added a new pricing option called Mac-Pac's.
We will begin offering a 4 Pass and 8 Pass Mac-Pac. The Mac-Pac passes can be used on any of these services offered by CrossFit Macomb:
CrossFit WOD Classes
CrossFit Lite Classes
CrossFit ELEMENT Classes
Yoga Class
Open Gym
Clinics
The Mac-Pac's work as an add-on to your CrossFit Class Memberships to include Yoga, Open Gym, and Clinics but also can be used if you can't quite commit to a three day a week membership.
The 4 Pass Mac-Pac is $50 and the 8 Pass Mac-Pac is $90.
Lastly, we reviewed our direction in 2015. We are going to focus on three things: Programming, Box to Box Events, and Clinics. We will have a calendar out this month that will keep you up to date with these events.
See the events below dates and times.
CFM Clinics
This year we are going to put some focused effort into refining some of the skills that we touch on during the week.
The first clinic we are providing is a Gymnastics clinic. The Gymnastics clinic will focuson learning and developing each gymnastic movements. We will review specific drills and progressions as well as how to improve our efficiency when we are stringing multiple reps together. We will include multiple breakout sessions to "try the movements" while getting critiqued on the movements.
We will learn and practice the following gymnastics movements. From basic to advanced.
Push-ups, Knees to Elbow, Toes to Bar, Pull-ups, Muscle-ups, Handstand, Handstand Push-ups, Handstand Walking.
We will also be offering a Competition Clinic on January 31st. The Competition Clinic will be FREE for all CrossFit Macomb members.
You can keep up with all our clinics on our website at: www.crossfitmacomb.com/p/clinics.html
CrossFit "Macomb Madness!" Competition - March 14th
The CrossFit "Macomb Madness!" Competition is a bracket style competition where a male/female team will compete head to head against another seeded team through a double elimination contest to determine best.
There will be a scaled bracket for those not competing as prescribed and a toilet bowl bracket for the those that are eliminated from main bracket.
All teams will compete in a least 3 WODs. The first WOD will be completed by every team and determine the teams seed for the rest of the event. From there, each team will compete in heats head to head against another team. The better team advances to the next round until only one team remains.
Sign up your team to hold your spot. We can only allow a certain number to fill the brackets properly. Only 25 spots remaining.
Register Team!
January Macombie
This month, the January Macombie for the "Competition Queen" award goes to Michelle K. Michelle participated in a staggering 10 competitions last year. Somehow she managed all this while working and going to school obtaining a degree in Psychology. She is one of few CFM members that attend the 5:45 AM class as well as the PM classes. Great job Michelle, you are an inspiration to who you surround yourself with. Continue to work hard and good luck in all your competitions this year. You can read more about Michelle in her Transformation Tuesday post on our blog this week.
