Early Canceling: We’d like to ask for some help with WOD reservations. If you know you cannot attend a WOD please early cancel as soon as you know. It allows everyone the best opportunity to attend the WOD and if wait-listed to be added to the WOD.
We know everyone has crazy schedules and things come up last minute. We don’t have any plans at the moment to change our reservation system/policies but we think that if everyone pitches in we can get things running smoother. Ultimately we want to see everyone as often as possible. Oh, but take rest days, those are important too. Thanks!
Last Week: This is our last week of the current strength cycle. Come in, run your percentages, struggle and get stronger. You’ll get a deload next week. Promise.

21 Guns, a Memorial Day Salute
If you’ve been around CrossFit, you know Memorial Day is always an ideal day for a tough WOD; typically a hero WOD.
This year we’ll be doing 21 Guns. The event is going to benefit Team RWB, which we think has a pretty cool mission. We’re trying to engage as many athletes inside and outside of the gym as we can. Please feel free to bring friends, we’re going to have a good time. Right now we are the only gym in NYC participating. Please help spread the word!
