CrossFit Level 1 Certification
@ CF South Brooklyn.
Congratulations Tim and Paul!!!
This past weekend several of us attended the Level 1 Cert. in Brooklyn, it was an amazing experience for all of us. Paul and Tim were able to expand their knowledge base as they learned the fundamental movements and concepts of CrossFit from some amazing trainers. In addition, they were able to push themselves and socialize with some great athletes from around the area.

This Cert was also extremely memorable for me as it was my first time as an CrossFit HQ intern to train. Being able to participate as an intern to some of the best CrossFit coaches has taught me other highly effective ways to train athletes. Ultimately, I will be using these techniques to more effectively train all of you, helping you to reach and exceed all of your personal CF goals.

"To excel means to reach beyond the best you have ever given because doing so matters to you personally, for its own sake. It means to run your own race—as an individual, team, or organization. To excel is to know your greatest strengths and passions, and to emphasize them while honestly admitting and managing your weaknesses."
-Robert Cooper

    Thanks guys in the picture I am in the upper left and tim is in the lower left near Aimee. It was a great time and I can't wait to help the begin to help Aimee and everyone else with everything I gained from the cert this weekend. And Ray as usual was able to spot my ability to spot my childlike self of at least getting somewhat dirty with chalk at every workout. I wonder if they have an AA for chalk addicts?
