One of the great things about CrossFit is the community. For clients, community is the bond made when working out together and, sometimes, competing with each other. For those of us who own and operate a CrossFit gym, community is the sharing of ideas to increase the success of our clients, which ultimately translates into increased business success.
Many of the training and nutrition ideas we have implemented at CrossFit Georgetown are ideas that have proven successful at other affiliates, and so now we have turned our attention to supplementation. We always planned to “carry” a line of supplements and have been approached by several people wanting us to endorse/sell their products but we just never found one that we felt was a good fit for us. We have known for some time that many affiliates use and recommend Advocare to their clients (interestingly, no one had approached us about Advocare) but it was last summer when we noticed that many of the top performers at the CrossFit Games included Advocare in their diet that we decided to take a closer look and we liked what we saw. We also saw success after success from other crossfitters so we decided to try the products ourselves—be the guinea pigs—and have been very happy with the results.
One of the things we like most about Advocare is how extensive the product line is. Do we recommend that everyone take every product? Absolutely not. These products, like everything about training, are very goal specific and we would be glad to let you know what we have been taking and why and then take a look at what may be best for your specific goals. To get an idea of what is available, you can visit our “web store”.

ReplyDeleteThis workout mauled me. The rounds of Cindy were not bad at all, but I started the clean and jerks at 155lb and had to go down to 135 after round 7.

At one point I didn't know if William was telling me to move faster or if Kthulu itself had come to torture me. After driving 45miles to the house I had a hell of a time even getting out of my car. This was a GREAT workout.
