DONNIE THOMPSON UPPER BODY STRENGTH, MOBILITY, RECOVERY SEMINAR
CrossFit Spartanburg will be welcoming Donnie Thompson (bio HERE and HERE) for a 4-hour seminar on Sunday 21APR2013. "Big D" posts Back Squat numbers over 1000# plus, Deadlift numbers over 800# plus, and has thrown up 900# plus on the Bench Press. He is also a world renowned physical therapist, has played in the NFL, was in the movie "The Program", trained with Louie Simmons from Westside Barbell, and is a can probably change a car tire without a jack. Nicki attended his seminar down at CrossFit 864 and RAVES about it. At this seminar, Big D will be showing you methods for gaining massive upper body strength as well as mobility/recovery techniques. The cost will be $50 and could decrease depending on number of participants. Contact Tal ASAP if you are interested. Athletes/Coaches will need to be signed up no later than Wednesday 17APR2013. On a side note, I don't usually agree to hosting seminars because I'm extremely skeptical about some of the stuff out there and refuse to let the BS in to exploit my athletes...this dude is legit, hence the seminar at CFS. Well worth the money, sign up or Big D will leave your ride on blocks...without a jack.

TEAM CFS - BATTLE OF THE BEASTS AND JUSTIN L CONTINUES TO RACK UP FREQUENT FLYER MILES
3 of our big body athletes (Josh V, Chris W and Allen) headed down to CrossFit Easley for the 1st annual Battle of the Beasts Strongman Competition. It was a "CrossFit" style event meshed with a Strongman event...meaning the weights got a little cray cray and the movements were a little non-traditional...big tire flips, axle lifts, yoke carries, stones, etc. Big Josh brought home another WIN for Team CFS! The Wheatley boys crushed it as well with Chris V barely missing the podium with a 4th place finish and big brother Allen right behind him in 5th. Continue waging the war against skinny jeans...awesome job fellas!
Josh V - 1st Place Overall Men's Rx
Chris W - 4th Place Overall Men's Rx
Allen - 5th Place Overall Men's Rx
Justin L is traveling yet again...this time its in Uvalde, TX with Big Oak CrossFit and Shotgun CrossFit.

A NOTE FROM THE PALMERS
To our CFS Family,
Whitney and I would like to thank each and every one of you for being such wonderful friends to us as we get to the proverbial 3-2-1 Go of our married life. Neither of us come from incredibly large families, and the relationships we've built at the gym we consider nothing short of an extension of family. We want to extend a special shout out to those who threw us the awesome Shower/Cornhole party this past Friday. Hannah J., Tori, Stacey, Nicki, Alisha, Ashley B., and Leigha did a wonderful job and we are immensely grateful for the effort you guys put into making the night and this fun time in our lives so very special.
To all who attended and those who were there in spirit we thank you too! We consider ourselves remarkably blessed to have such amazing friends. You guys are the best! We love you all!
Insert Mushy/Sensitive/Tear Jerking Salutation Here,
Mr. and Mrs. Palmer (whoop whoop)
The end.
