SBK will not be holding weekend classes on two occasions this month due to the Certifications we're hosting.  Consider this a great opportunity to either check out a different affiliate or get an outdoor WOD in.  Here are some links to local affiliates for you to check out

CF Queens
CF Staten Island
CF NYC
CF Virtuosity
CF Montclair, Guerrilla Fitness
CF Hoboken
MPower CrossFit

If you're interested in checking out any of these boxes, make sure to call ahead of time to see if they allow drop ins. Otherwise, is anyone interested in organizing a Prospect park 5K or Austere WOD?

Also, if you usually attend weekend classes but can't because of the seminar, please email me so that we can modify your 4 week package to accommodate the change in schedule.

The Rock Club
130 Rhodes Street
New Rochelle, NY 10801

We've got quite a crew planning to head up to New Rochelle on Saturday. If you have not RSVP'd, unfortunately we are completely full.

Here's what you need to know:
We will leave the Lyceum at 12:30pm
Everyone will be assigned to a car, so don't worry if you don't have one
Bring lunch and snacks
Bring $25 cash - this will pay for our class, rental gear and climbing time
Wear workout clothes - tight stuff on the bottom is probably your best bet
Remember to cut your toenails and fingernails the night before. Very important.

We have a one hour lesson at 2pm and then we're free to climb after that. We'll stay until about 5pm and then head back to the city.

SBK talks food.
Sunday 5th of April. From 1-2:30pm, Free
Food is a necessary and sometimes wonderful, sometimes vexing part of our lives. As athletes, our questions surrounding food become even more complicated: what should I eat, when should I eat and how much? What if I want to lean out? Or gain mass? What about eating for endurance vs. weightlifting? What does it really mean to "eat healthy"?

Spend an hour learning the basics about your food quality, quantity and timing. We'll touch on the paleo diet, Zone portions and how to safely experiment with eating to support your performance. There will be plenty of time for questions

Rest Day

Nicole in the good hands of Dutch, EC and Shane.

The following CrossFitters have expressed interest in this weekend's SBK Rock Climbing outing.  Please confirm your spot and if you can drive by emailing Margie@crossfitsouthbrooklyn.com by Thursday.  Theres still plenty of time to sign up if you're interested, it's going to be a blast!
