Crossfit Thousand Oaks - Thousand Oaks, CA - June 26th

I was in So Cal on June 26th and stopped in for a WOD at Crossfit Thousand Oaks - www.crossfitthousandoaks.com.  The owner and coach for our WOD was Dan Kallen. 
Great strength work and WOD. 
Started with 3x5 backsquats at 65% of max.  3 second count on decent, 3 second count at the bottom then up.  This was real leg burner.
WOD was 5 rounds of 15 deadlifts and a 400m run.  Weight for the deadlift was 65% max.  That was a lot of deadlifts!
Had a great time with Dan and the class.  Dan was very motivating.  Thanks to the team at CFTO, I will stop by again to get another WOD and a shirt I hope!

Crossfit All Terrain - Bend, Oregon, June 14th

Last visit to the Crossfits in Bend Oregon for the Level 10 Crossfitters.  We went back and saw Colin at Crossfit All Terrain today.  http://crossfitallterrain.com.  Awesome heavy WOD today: Every Minute on the Minute (EMOM) for 14 Minutes 3 Back Squats (use 60% of 1 Rep Max ; this should be taken from the ground) and 7 burpees.  Can't wait to get back to sea level, this altitude is tough!  Thank you Colin for making us feel at home this week and opening your Box to us.

Crossfit All Terrain, Bend Oregon - June 11, 2013

We traveled with a group of friends to Bend, Oregon for our family vacation.  One important part of the vacation was to visit some new Crossfits.  With 8 Crossfits in Bend, it was a difficult decision where to start.  After researching on the Web, we decided to start with Crossfit All Terrain. http://crossfitallterrain.com
We had a great time at All Terrain.  Our coach was Colin Richards.  We went at 11am to an open class; our plan was to warm up with Annie and then move on to a WOD of Crossfit Poker.  Colin was great, he jumped in and did both WOD's with us.  (between attending to customers as they dropped in)  Had a great time and want to thank Colin for the hospitality!    Plan to visit at least one more time for some O Lifting.  If you get to Bend, go by and see Colin.
