Putting your CrossFit Skillz to the Test

MBooms 1st, Sarah Wilde 3rd...nuff said

Last weekend two of our CrossFitter’s Mary Boomsma and Sarah Wilde competed in the South Dakota Power lifting competition.

We are proud to announce that Mary Boomsma placed 1st and Sarah Wilde stepped in for 3rd place in their respective classes. Mary and Sarah both trained specifically for this event in less than one month! Goes to show you that CrossFit will prepare you for anything at anytime. One of the elements of fitness under the CrossFit philosophy is “regularly participate in sports”.

We have a lot of members that will run 5k’s, marathons, triathlons; lifting events, play in recreational sports, etc…

What do you use your CrossFit Skillz for? What is your sport?

  11. Awesome job, ladies!!

    I play alot of volleyball and I’ve not only had to step yet another 1-2 feet back for serving, but I have noticed a HUGE difference in my quickness on the court since starting CF. I also have a better jump to block and spike as well…..big difference and excited to see how much more it progresses!

  12. one more reason I go to Crossfit……cause the women can kick my butt!!

    Great job!
