Good vs GREAT at WildFire CrossFit

At WildFire CrossFit, we believe in Coaching good form and technique in every exercise we program. During class, we use the triage method while circling the gym. First, our goal is to make sure everyone is moving safely, then, we work on increasing each athlete’s efficiency. As we have evolved as a fitness community, our athletes do a great job of working together to help each other move through exercises safely, and that gives us the ability to work on increasing the efficiency. This brings me to the point of this article, and that’s talking about Right vs More Right. Take the squat for example. Any athlete who has gone through the Baseline workout has ....

Drink Water & Perform Better at WildFire CrossFit

It’s the end of Spring, and you know what that means. While most Americans are still enjoying cooler temperatures, here in the desert, we are already seeing triple digits, wearing as little as possible, and being careful not to burn exposed skin when we get into a hot car. In many parts of the world, clean drinking water is in short supply. Here in America, even though we have access to plenty of the best water available, it’s still the second most popular drink behind soft drinks and sodas. Our bodies are made of almost 60 percent water, so it only makes sense that staying hydrated will help our body work better. As the heat goes up, we need to drink more to stay ....

The Weekend Evolution - Today at THROWDOWN

We have always loved weekends at WildFire CrossFit! Much like our other programs, the weekends at WildFire CrossFit have evolved into what they are today, a full schedule of classes with something for everyone. It used to be that we only had one class, at 9am on Saturday. Much like the current 9am class, it has always been free and open to the public and we encourage our members to invite their friends and family. We began doing partner and team workouts when the classes got busy and that tradition lives on today. First we added and Olympic Lifting class, then, Open Gym and Mobility on Sundays and now we have a full schedule with plenty of options to train for everyone, ....

Rope Climbs Today - Great Week Ahead...

Today, among other things, we are going to be working on Rope Climbs. While you may think, the Rope Climb was just an exercise used to torture kids in gym class, it’s actually an important skill to have for survival. Sure, nobody plans to be stuck on a cliff or down in a hole, however, it sure would be nice to know how to climb a rope if there was one that could get you to safety! Today we are going to teach you the skill of climbing a rope by using your feet to hold on. It’s very important to wear long socks, pants, or even shin guards to prevent rope burn which will happen if you don’t cover your shins. Property footwork can be learned, grip ....
