Memorial Day Murph, 5-25-09 10am-1pm
Come join us on Memorial Day for our yearly fundraiser workout! All proceeds this year will be donated to the Yellow Ribbon Fund , and what better way to raise money and have fun than to get crushed by such a killer workout (totally scaleable, of course!) and finish off with a cook-out. Minimum donations of $25 will be required to participate, but more will be accepted on the day, along with any covered dish item you'd like to bring for afterwards.
I wanted to invite you all to our free Intro to Judo session this Saturday May 2nd from 10-12:30. On Saturday, we are hosting a demonstration and beginners lesson so that you can see and try Judo.
We will start by demonstrating a number of Judo techniques and then follow with a chance for you to try some of them yourself. The environment will be low stress and fun. Please join us.
If you are intending to come, please show up a few minutes early to fill out the waiver and RSVP to

so we have an idea of how many people will be attending.
This weekend, Primal's own Randi "The Natural" Watts and Christy "The Terminator" Phillips ventured down to Virginia Beach to compete in the CrossFit Games Mid-Atlantic Qualifier. The two-day event consisted of four grueling workouts, designed to test all ten domains of fitness.
The girls worked their hearts out among a field of 46 tough women. At the conclusion of Saturday, Randi was in 27th place after several strong performances, while Christy sat atop the leaderboard with a 1:39 lead over second place!
The final workout on Sunday consisted of squat snatches and chest-to-bar pull-ups. Unfortunately, Randi could not finish under the fifteen minute cap and was given a DNF - Randi hates C2B pull-ups. In the afternoon, Christy began a staggered heat consisting of the top ten women. She would not give up her lead. After a long and exhausting weekend, Christy took home first place and qualified for the CrossFit Games in July!
These two young ladies trained absurdly hard in preparation for this event, so feel free to give them some congratulations the next time you see them in the gym. Primal is blessed to have two such amazing athletes to inspire us daily with their efforts. Great work, girls!
Kudos and thanks to all of you who've supported the gym in all the many ways you do, because the reason we're the best gym is because we have you, the best community! So a big thank you and shout out to all of you who know and love and support this gym!
We've known it all along, but now the rest of the city knows it, too! Spread the word!
Because we all know that it's really, "Primal Fitness - The Best Gym in The World!"

All ages and abilities welcome, as each and every skill will be scalable to fit your current strength and fitness level.

The seminar will be on Sunday March 29th from 9am-12pm, cost will be $60 and spots can be purchased in the Primal Store . In order to provide quality coaching, space is extremely limited. Sign up today before all the spots are gone!
