NEWBIES!!!

I JUST WANNA TAKE A MINUTE TO RECOGNIZE AND WELCOME A FEW NEW PEOPLE THAT WE'VE GOTTEN AT CROSSFIT GROTON OVER THE LAST FEW WEEKS. I'M PUMPED TO HAVE SUCH A DYNAMIC CREW THAT MENDS SO WELL TOGETHER. TO THE MEMBERS THAT HAVE BEEN AROUND SINCE OUR OPENING, I WANT TO THANK YOU AS ALWAYS AND ASK THAT YOU WELCOME THESE GUYS AND GIRLS WITH OPEN ARMS...

THANE AND JUSTIN- 2 LARGE VETERAN POWERLIFTERS THAT CAME FROM SOUTH SHORE. FUNNY AS HELL AND SOME OF THE HARDEST WORKERS I'VE SEEN. JUSTIN RESPONDS WELL TO YELLING!

BEN FROM FLORIDA- AWESOME DUDE AND A PRETTY EXPERIENCED CROSSFITTER WHO TOOK A JOB IN THE AREA WITH AIRPLANES

7FT TALL JUSTIN- WATCH OUT FOR THIS TRACK STAR. CAN'T MISS HIM- BIG SMILE AND FAST AS MO FO

CODY, JON, AND JEREMY- SOME LOCAL TROOPS FROM THE NAVY BASE. JON AND JEREMY ARE NAVY CORPSMAN. JON JUST GOT BACK FROM A TOUR OF DUTY AND IS GROWING INTO AN EXTREMELY TALENTED CROSSFITTER

JOHN CHIANGI- OWNS THE WAREHOUSE NEXT DOOR AND CAME OVER ONE DAY CUZ HE WANTED TO SEE WHY THE WALL WAS SHAKING... HAHA! WHEN HE SAW WHAT WE WERE DOING, HE HAD TO HAVE A PIECE. DON'T LET THE GREY HAIR FOOL YA, THIS GUY IS STRONG AS A BULL!

BIG ED- SPEAKING OF STRONG... ONE OF MY COWORKER'S DADS HAS JOINED THE CREW. NOT ONLY IS HE 57, BUT HE CAN OUT WORK MOST OF THE GUYS HALF HIS AGE. HE'S ALSO PUT TOGETHER A 531 WORKOUT SPREADSHEET THAT AUTOMATICALLY CALCULATES YOU WEIGHTS FOR ALL YOU POWERLIFTERS OUT THERE.

ANNETTE- ONE OF THE SWEETEST PEOPLE I'VE EVER MET. SHE USUALLY COMES IN AROUND 8AM AND LOVES HAVING NEW PEOPLE TO WORKOUT WITH. HER FORM IS UNBELIEVABLE, AS IS HER WORK ETHIC!

YOU'LL ALSO SEE A FEW NEW OPEN GYMERS, JANEIL (TRAINING FOR THE CROSSFIT GAMES) AND CHRIS JONES, A LOCAL RUGBY PLAYER AND COLLEGE STUDENT- BOTH AWESOME PEOPLE

ALSO ON THE ROSTER WILL BE A LOCAL MARINE AND WAR VET BY THE NAME OF ADRIAN AND HIS COUSIN NICK PERRY- THESE GUYS ARE HILARIOUS, VERY COACHABLE- AND HAVE BEEN SAVED FROM THE DEPTHS OF WORKOUT WORLD

ALSO JOINING THE CREW WILL BE 2 MORE OF MY COWORKERS FROM THE FIREHOUSE- KEITH "HECTOR" GOMEZ AND JEFF ERHART

WE'VE ALSO RECEIVED ANOTHER SAILOR BY THE NAME OF DUSTIN, RECOMMENDED TO US BY RANDY AS SECT. DUSTIN IS A TRIP AND A HARD WORKER. HE'S GOT AN EXCELLENT FOUNDATION AND I'M PUMPED TO HAVE YET ANOTHER SERVICEMAN IN OUR GYM.

ANYWAY, THANK YOU ALL AGAIN FOR YOUR SUPPORT. I'M FIRED UP THAT WE'LL BE HOSTING SOME HIGH ENERGY GROUP SESSIONS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE ALREADY GREAT VIBE AND INTENSITY THAT WE'VE GOT AT CFG! KEEP SPREADING THE NEWS- IT HURTS SOOOO GOOD.
