Those who accepted the challenge of Open workout 15.2 this past Friday got exposed to one of the most challenging movements in CrossFit, the overhead squat. It places a tremendous demands on our ability to stabalize our core while under load. Today we will once again attack the overhead squat but also work on a number of supporting drills/stretches. Here is a video from the master of mobility, Kelly Starret

We hope everyone is as excited as we are for Friday’s Open 15.3 workout at 7:30p. It was a blast last week and we hope to see everyone (plus more) this week! Invite friends your friends and relatives to cheer you on (and show them all this crazy stuff we love to do). We’ll have some beer and food but we’d love to make it more ‘potluck’. So feel free to bring your favorite post-WOD snacks.
Coach Chris looks on as his baby mamma Lauren crushes 15.2. Yep, that woman is PREGNANT!
So inspiring. And congrats to both of them on the big news!

We often get the question of how we arrived at the name “CrossFit Cove”. If you haven’t read our story on the website, here’s why…
“When you step into the Cove you are in a unique place where positivity, support and encouragement prevail. The very nature of our name “The Cove” connotes a protected enclave – that is, place you can go to that offers a respite from the pressures and judgments of the outside world. A place where you can just let loose. We believe in ‘play’ and ‘fun’ but believe equally in hard work and getting results. That’s why we call our kettlebells, rowers and ropes are our ‘toys’ and we love coming in each day to get to play hard with them.”
Simply put, the “Cove” fit our vision for this gym and community. We hope everyone feels comfortable in this space to be themselves, to push themselves physical, and gain all of the physical, mental, and social benefits this community has to offer!
