Crossfit Verve / Plateaus



Had my first workout today at the infamous Crossfit Verve located in the Highlands District of downtown Denver.

I admit that I was in a severe workout plateau. While I stayed true to working out every day, I lacked intensity and focus. I give a lot of credit to my fiancee, Lindsay. She encouraged us to actually join a crossfit gym and benefit from the group dynamic, competition, instruction, and enthusiasm.

I admittedly got a little more that I bargained for today! Cherie and Matt Chan run a tough program at Crossfit Verve. Cherie taught flawless power snatch form and Matt worked out with the group. He finished his WOD in precisely HALF the time I did!

Crossfit Verve posts their own Custom WOD's at www.crossfitverve.com. Pictured with Trainer/Owner Cherie and a picture of the 1230 class.

Welcome to the Box.
Joining CrossFitLasVegas was the best decision. I could have continued doing it on my own just following the WODs on the main site, but with my membership come excellent and personalized training, focus on form makes safer more effective lifts, and the trainers know how & when to scale. Its a real push to have others around you cheering you on to finish a WOD and then you all feel the pain together. I can really feel the difference when I'm traveling and have to go it alone all over again (haven't found a Box near my recent destinations).
Again, thanks for being my inspiration (it's almost been one year since I started CF with you in Balad).
