Firepower will be hosting a level 1 certification on the weekend of February 27-28th. This level 1 cert teaches people the fundamentals and allows them to teach CrossFit. If you ever get a chance to take one of these certs I highly recommend it.  Unfortunately the FirePower cert is sold out already and the gym will be unavailable for that weekend. We will have alternative arrangements though for our members.

“Every Second Counts” a film by producers Sevan Matossian & Carey Peterson have put together a truly wonderful documentary on CrossFit and the CrossFit Games. “Every Second Counts” documented the lives of some of the most talented athletes in the CrossFit community, as they prepared for the 2008 CrossFit Games, held at “The Ranch” in Aromas, California. With the approval of the Producers Greg & Lauren Glassman, Dave Castro, and our wonderful directors, Sevan and Carey, FirePower CrossFit has been granted a chance to show “Every Second Counts” to the public before the final Theatrical release.

This screening is a chance to show our athletes, along with family, friends, and all those interested, what it takes to make it to the Worlds most challenging test of Fitness. CrossFit is our sport the time and efforts it takes to achieve success in this sport are just as demanding as they are rewarding. Throughout “Every Second Counts,” you will see the daily lives of four of the 200 competitors as they train for and participate in the Games.

This film was a “labor of love” for the directors and producers. The hours of footage they went through are mind-blowing. Their hard work and sacrifices turned out a phenomenal documentary that truly embraces the CrossFit spirit.
