MEMBER SPOTLIGHT. Needing to feel the void of not being able to play golf during the winter months, Troy turned to Crossfit and join CFNA on October 2021. He likes that he is able to easily measure his progress in the gym - whether by learning a new skill or being able to do the same movement with a heavier weight.

His favorite workouts usually involve pull-ups or double under. You will usually find him in the gym 4-5 times a week which he finds allows him to properly recover and perform best. This is in keeping with his goal to get stronger and avoid injury. The next time you are in the box, say hi to Troy and talk to him about OSU Football and Basketball.

Today we are doing this hero workout dedicated to Police Officer Eric Taylor, Massillon PD, OH, who was shot and killed on August 9, 2002, while engaged in a foot pursuit following a vehicle pursuit.
The chase began when a state trooper made a traffic stop at Ohio 21 and Edwards Street in Doylestown. During the stop, the suspect opened fire on the trooper and fled. The suspect’s vehicle became stuck in a field and Patrolman Taylor and the suspect exchanged gunfire while still in their vehicles. The suspect then fled on foot and continued to exchange gunfire with Patrolman Taylor and other officers as they pursued him. Both Patrolman Taylor and the suspect were fatally wounded.
The workout was created by Coach Tom Roehlig of CrossFit Massillon (Massillon, OH, USA) which is 400 meters away from where the incident took place.
The rep scheme signifies Patrolman Taylor’s badge number, 91.

Join us for our Back To School schedule starting August 22nd for our CrossFit Kids Programs!

We provide a fitness outlet to keep kids active while getting a break from the specific sports that they may specialize in during the school year. CrossFit is a sport in itself for those looking for something new. We incorporate principles of speed, agility, strength, endurance, plyometrics and flexibility through a variety of functional movements including squats, lunges, pulling, pushing, jumping, rowing, biking and running. We will be teaching fundamentals of lifting weights to help with body awareness and explosiveness. Each class will include an aspect of teamwork and creativity to build friendships and hold everyone accountable to be able to transfer these skills to life’s demands as they grow up.

☀️2 weeks ago we hosted the 1st inaugural Summer Jam!

Male/Female partners competed through 3 grueling events all in the name of community, oh and a few prizes!

This event consisted of athletes from both and . Most had never formally competed but everyone had such a great time!

The turnout was so great and we can’t wait to host it again next year!

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT. As an introvert, John would normally never talk in the gym. But with the help of our coaches and members, he now gets excited for the WOD when he’s working out with more familiar faces. So, when you see him in the gym, make sure that you introduce yourself.

John joined CFNA on January 2022 to help him with his goal to lose weight. He needed a change from the usual lifting routine. He has been enjoying the Olympic lifting movements and gets more and more confident as he sees the weight go up. He aspires to develop his pace and increase the number of rounds he can complete in the AMRAP WODs. He also wants to learn double unders and handstand pushups by the end of the year, so make sure to give a tip or two that helped you with those skills.

This Memorial workout from OUTAthletics .athletics (formerly OUTWOD) is dedicated to Gilbert Baker, an American artist, LGBTQ rights activist, and creator of the rainbow flag. The 6 minutes in the workout represent the 6 colors of the Pride Flag most widely distributed, even though the original flag has 8.

Baker set to work in 1978 to design the symbol for the gay liberation movement. He wanted it to be beautiful, unique, and to speak for itself as representative of the LGBTQ community. The very first pride flag was comprised of eight colorful stripes representing diversity: hot pink (sexuality), red (life), orange (healing), yellow (sun), green (nature), blue (art), indigo (harmony), and violet (human spirit).

With help from volunteers, Baker filled eight metal trash cans with natural dye and organic cotton in the attic of the Gay Community Center in San Francisco and used his sewing machine to stitch together the two initial flags that flew in the San Francisco Gay Freedom Day Parade on June 25, 1978.

In the 1970s, Baker participated in drag shows and joined the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a non-profit LGBTQ advocacy group whose members dress as nuns to bring attention to gender and sexual intolerance. An emerging activist and prominent drag performer, Baker joined forces with Harvey Milk. Baker became Milk’s right-hand flag man, utilizing his drag queen costume sewing skills to design and stitch numerous banners protesting the Vietnam War and supporting gay rights. In fact, when Baker’s very first rainbow flags made their debut, Milk stood beneath them.

An artist until the end, just before his death, he created 39 nine-color flags which included “the eight original colors, plus lavender to represent diversity in order to commemorate the 39th anniversary of the first rainbow flag,” stated in his obituary in the New York Times​. On March 31, 2017, Baker died from hypertensive and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in his New York City home at age 65. His life is celebrated in the documentary, ​Rainbow Pride (​2003) and his original sewing machine used to create the first flag is on display at the LGBT Historical Society in San Francisco.

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT. In this series, we will be highlighting some of the members who joined our community recently. First up is Nate.

Before joining CFNA, Nate felt that we wasn’t efficient with his time in the gym. He needed the extra push which he didn’t get working out by himself. He joined our community on Feb 2022.

In the first few months, he worked on building up his endurance and transitioning back into Crossfit after a year off. Now, he enjoys the workouts that are 8 minutes or less, bonus if it includes his favorite movement - the clean and jerk. He likes the atmosphere here at CFNA and hopes to continue to have fun in his workouts. Make sure you say hi to him the next time you are in the gym.
