Work and Relaxation

Great work done by everyone this week! Heavy front squats, lunges, pullups, a million knees-to-elbows and sandbag carries while wearing the flac jacket couldn't stop you!

In honor of your hard work, and my apologies for such a late notice, after this week's RAINSTORM at noon we will meet at Banya 5 at 4pm sharp for some rest and much needed relaxation!


from Banya 5.com:

Banya 5 is an urban spa and health facility which offers a unique blend of old world wellness rituals in a friendly contemporary environment. A series of relaxing wet heat and dry heat experiences coupled with exhilarating pool plunges produce a vivid circulatory experience with numerous mental and physical health benefits. Banya 5 is an environment which promotes wellness, vitality and rejuvenation of the soul.

...


In Russia, sweating and health are virtually synonymous. From 1877 to 1911, more than 30 medical dissertations were published in Russia about the healing powers of the banya. Even today the attitude of the banya as a panacea is found in remote villages where traditional folk medicine prevails.


DISCOUNT FOR EVERYONE WHO COMES WITH US! Meaning $20/person (vs. the normal $40 entrance fee). Only thing you have to bring is some water-wear (board shorts, bikinis) because they provide towels and flip flops if you don't want to bring any. The best part is that you can stay as long as you like! They also have a tea service upstairs and other things like massages, body wraps and scrubs, waxing and facials. Check out their website for more info.


And hey! CrossFitters everywhere are invited- you don't have to be a member of our gym to come! Call or email me Andrew@foundationcrossfit.com for anything you might need. We'll need RSVPs for a head count.

SEE YOU SATURDAY!
