Happy June!

I spent the weekend moving into my AWESOME new place across from Piedmont Park. I’m so excited to be in walking distance to CFM and so many other AWESOME places!
New month, new home, new goals.
Here are a few of my June goals:
1. Continue training 4x a week for Powerlifting Nationals in July.
2. Finalize plans for my TWO-WEEK VACATION in July 🙂
3. Finish reading Man’s Search for Meaning and The Five Dysfunctions of a Team. Both great books… check ’em out.
4. Unpack & organize my new place.
5. Wakeboard.
Add your goals to the whiteboard when you’re at the box this week. AND post them in the comments… HUMOR ME. Let’s see how many people can post a comment on the blog today. MY OTHER GOAL THIS MONTH IS TO MOTIVATE MORE PEOPLE TO GET INVOLVED WITH THE DAILY BLOG CONVERSATION IN THE COMMENTS! Help a sister out.

SHARE YOUR JUNE GOALS IN THE COMMENTS!

New class schedule starts today:

And I am thrilled to announce that CFM is now home to one of USA’s ONLY OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING MEDALISTS! Cheryl Haworth will be training at CFM and leading a weekly Open Gym session for anyone who wants to work on O-lifting technique. This week’s O-lifting Open Gym will be held Saturday from 12n-2p. This session counts as one of your weekly classes. It’s gonna be awesome! Cheryl won a Bronze medal at the 2000 Games in Sydney. Check out some of Cheryl’s highlights here.

Cassie, Carlos & Beka spent the day at CF East Decatur yesterday for Carl Paoli’s Movement/Gymnastics seminar. We look forward to the knowledge bombs they’re bringing back to DROP on CFMers this week!
