New class: Saturday 7:30 AM CrossFit

It’s our anniversary in Leschi! What better way to celebrate than by deadlifting? I’m updating this post with evening deadlift photos. First of all Steve with his giant bar-bending 301 pounds! (See that little blue weight on the end? It’s a half pound.) And then Sabrina, who announced she was feeling frisky and then lifted...
