So all you people that wouldn't join a gym unless you had beautifully painted weights, you're in luck! We spent some time at the new Potomac CrossFit box yesterday cleaning and painting weights, putting rowing machines together, and drawing highly technical dry erase board diagrams on where to place the lifting platforms. This place is huge! Check out the pictures again here.
The best part is the all-glass front so the general public can look in as they walk by with expressions of confusion and shock on their faces. But we also get police officers stopping by and curious locals that seem excited. My favorite is when people walk by on their way to the HUGE globo gyms that are within a block of us. This probably looks a little different than what they're used to. It was the first unofficial Potomac CrossFit WOD and it was BRUTAL.

Notice my poor rowing form ... I am working to address it. I'm built like a rower. I really should be better at it. Too much time spent running on dry land. And the best part, I'll not only be training other people here (private sessions and classes) it will be MY gym as well. I predict a great year. Lots of new athletes to train and a string of personal records for everyone (including me).
You want to join or know more? You can contact me or better yet, you can contact Brian.
