It is time to take your CrossFit training to the next level because Alchemy CrossFit is going to send our top 2 male and female athletes to compete in the 2010 CrossFit Games Affiliate competition. That’s right we will buy you a flight and get you from Hamilton, Ontario to Aromas, California and pay your entrance fees. All you need to do is workout hard and constantly strive to improve, eat right, and take part in gym events and monthly contests to earn points which will be used to determine the top 2 male and female crossfitters from Alchemy CrossFit.

So if you want a FREE trip to California (and really who doesn’t?) Get into the gym, get involved, and get into the best shape of your life.

We will be scoring all the contensts and events similar to NASCAR – the higher you place the more points you get, and everyone who takes part gets some points. THe more events you take part in the more points you can earn. Around next June we will tabulate all the points and anounce the 4 winners who will fly to California to represent Alchemy CrossFit at the 2010 CrossFIt Games Affiliate Cup.

Remember to sign in and register online for your classes here.

Let us know how we can continue to improve our schedule to better serve you – our kick ass members!

Congratulations to last months Winners, and all the rest of you who got pull ups for the first time ever, and those of you who improved their pull ups! I am SUPER PROUD of all of you! Amazing job and commitment. Glenn Hulme (AKA Monkey Boy) Really threw down the gauntlet in the last week with 30 gorgeous chest to bar pull ups in a row! Denise came in with a strong 25 rediculously high pull ups as well. Climber Power I guess =) Coming in second were Meathead # 3 in fine form busting out 27 in a row, and Lisa Kvedaras with her 10.75 (too bad lower lip to the bar doesn’t count!) Also a special shout out and congrats to Jane Castelli and Janet Ratcliffe who also broke into double digits – Great Work!

This month’s contest at Alchemy CrossFit Hamilton will be Double Unders – How many can you do in a row, no breaks, no resets, not skips between each double under?
