CrossFitting Since: I was first exposed to some CrossFit-style workouts by Keith in 2006, but when CFV opened, I started CrossFitting on a regular basis.

What advice do you have for people just getting started? Listen to the coaches, they know what they're doing. Oh, and stretch. Definitely stretch. Take the coaches' mobility instructions seriously, because that's half the battle. And scale. It's better to do a movement right with a lower weight than to do it wrong with a heavier weight.

Another year has gone by, and it's time once again for an NYC affiliate throwdown: the 2013 Subway Series!

I write today to ask for your help in fighting the epidemic of Workout-Induced Forgetfulness that has overtaken our beloved gym, leaving it littered with water bottles, tape, and other such heartbreaking tokens of minds that have wandered.

On Saturday, July 6th, we'll be hosting the CrossFit For Hope fundraiser, to raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. We will be completing the "Hope" workout at 10am, 11am, and noon classes.

No better time for CrossFit Kids Virtuosity! We are now registering 3-5 year olds and 6-12 year olds for our Monday and Wednesday classes.

Please note the following schedule changes for the 4th of July week / weekend!

Join us after your workout this Wednesday (6/19) at Battery Harris for $3 pints of cider and $5/lb wings (CrossFit special!) We'll be hanging out 7pm onward.

There will be NO 9am class this Wednesday, June 12th due to a photo shoot. All other classes will proceed as usual. We apologize for any inconvenience!

Please note that all morning classes are cancelled and replaced by 5pm and 6pm All Levels class on Sunday, June 9th due to necessary rehabilitation of the gym and ourselves following CrossFit Prom (aka Party of the Year.) We highly recommend that you attend Prom to ensure that you will definitely not miss Sunday morning class!
