Parking Issues

I just want to make sure that everyone is aware of this situation and can hopefully do your part to help remedy it. We’ve recently had the property manager of 1193 South Brownell Road tell us that clients from our business are not allowed to park in their lot and that they will tow cars. As far as we can tell from talking with the town, the lots are deemed a single lot (this actually includes the Edge as well), it is not there’s solely to park in. In addition there is no signage stating that clients of a specific business can/cannot park in the lot. Unfortunately we have someone who has chosen to create an issue where there is none, solely because they can. While the lot is rarely more than 5o% full, they’ve chosen to make a big deal about it…

The Open Is Coming

It’s that time of year again, the CrossFit Open is just around the corner, 3 weeks to be exact until the first workout will be released. Champlain Valley CrossFit has been fortunate enough to take part in this event every year since it has started in 2011, and even more fortunate to have some amazing athletes that we’ve been able to cheer on every year that have made it all the way to the CrossFit Games. We truly do have one of the best gyms and communities in the world, and we also have some of the best athletes, literally, and that’s pretty damn cool!   Each year I write a post about why you should sign-up for the Open, but not this year. Why, because frankly plenty of you shouldn’t. These are just some of my observations as and affiliate owner, the…

Winter Sniffels

It’s that time of year again. I’d like to take just a minute to formally address being sick and training. At some point each and every one of you are going to get sick throughout the winter. Some of your are courteous enough to stay home and rest, while other comes in coughing, sneezing, dripping  snot and nastiness everywhere. First a foremost, if you’re sick, coming into the gym and training is not going to help you get better. Sweating it out is a great way to help yourself get better when you’re sick…however that sweating it out refers to sitting in a Sauna, putting sweats on and walking up and down the stairs, or something of minimal intensity, not going to the gym and further beating your body down weakening it’s immune system. That’s right, when you train, while ultimately exercise helps…
