Most of you know that our head coach and programmer Geo Rockwell is also the owner of CrossFit Federal Hill in downtown Baltimore. If you are ever in that area, feel free to drop in for a workout or say hi! Geo and his team of Coaches at CFH have started a podcast. One of his coaches, JP (who, btw, got us the awesome soft climbing ropes we have in the gym!) will be hosting the show and they will feature coaches from CFH and around the area (the Cove got a mention in Ep 1!). They will be covering everything from programming and Oly lifts to the mental side of exercise. Listen or download here- The 4th Pull Podcast. Or go to i-Tunes and search for The 4th Pull Podcast- if you subscribe and leave a review that would be GREAT!
Episode 1: JP and Geo talk about Overcoming Training Plateaus (forgive audio issues in the very beginning Episode 2: JP, Geo, Matt and Eric on How to Get Better at CrossFit

We’ve got another great week planned and we kick off Monday with a different rep scheme that will be fun and challenging!
As some of you have heard, there is now a NATIONAL PRO GRID LEAGUE with CrossFit-esque team competitions (check out THIS VIDEO if you aren’t familiar).
They are offering group tickets in blocks of 10 or more for $22 each. Tickets are good for both matches and likely a meet and greet events with the Anthem athletes.
NPGL is having a double header on Sunday, August 9 at Prince George’s Sports and Learning Complex in Landover, MD. At 2:00 pm the Baltimore Anthem is taking on the reigning champions, the DC Brawlers and at 5:00 pm it’s the New York Rhinos vs the Boston Iron.
If we have at least 10 people interested, we can get the discount (caveat that Brian and Marina will not be able to attend). NO PRESSURE but we thought we would put it out there and see if anyone was interested in going as a group. We will put up a sign up on the whiteboard where you can put your name if you are interested!
