VETERANS’ DAY HERO SCHMALLS

Work Out of the Day
TODAY WE CELEBRATE VETERANS’ DAY.
Many people get Veterans Day and Memorial Day confused. Memorial Day is a time to remember those who gave their lives for our country, particularly in battle or from wounds they suffered in battle. Veterans Day honors all of those who have served the country in war or peace — dead or alive — although it’s largely intended to thank living veterans for their sacrifices.
So today, our thanks go out to all military and service personnel who fight/fought for the freedoms we have as Americans.

NEWS & UPDATES
LEGENDS BRING-A-FRIEND / INTRO CLASS
Saturday, November 23rd at 11:00am, invite your parents, grandparents, “mature in age” friends….as we introduce them to the Legends Program! As most of you know our Legends Program is quite popular…and effective! Using CrossFit’s tenets and tailoring our programming for seniors agest 65+, we are able to increase strength, mobility, balance, endurance and overall quality of life. We have seen bone density increase; blood glucose, blood pressure and cholesterold decrease; posture improve, knee and joint pain decrease…the results are truly unbelievable.
At Legends, we don’t believe in maintenance…we don’t believe being stagnant in anything is good for you. Even our 90 year old are getting stronger, as they age. And the stronger you are, the easier everything is.
Open to everyone, we’re excited to tell people about our revolutionary program!
