February 6th, Crossfit ToyBox, Raritan, NJ

After the trip from hell to the East Coast, I needed a Crossfit fix.  I found it at Crossfit ToyBox, http://crossfittoybox.info, in Raritan, NJ.  From the very beginning, I felt right at home.  Fellow Crossfitters were very friendly and the Owner/Coach, Donna Giesler was just awesome.  The day I visited was an open gym, however there was a WOD ready for those who wanted to play in the Toybox. 
Donna was very knowledgeable with body mechanics and physiology.  We started with a good warm up and some techincal isolation movements to isolate our back train.  WOD was:  KB swings and KB Thrusters followed by a shuttle run each round.  2,4,6,8,10,12,10,8,6,4,2.  Finisher was 5 min EMOM 7 Burpees and max situps.  Everyone kicked my butt on the WOD, but I held my own on the finisher.  Can't wait to get back to visit again.  Hope Donna will make it to Nor Cal to visit Oroville Crossfit.
