BOD POD IS COMING!
A number of people showed interest in having a BodPod body composition test and we was able to schedule a company to bring one out to the gym. The BodPod is a device that takes super accurate measurements of body composition (body fat vs. lean muscle) to get an idea of where you stand and the amount of calories your body should take in. It is used by both the NFL and NHL in there combine testing.
The date are will be Monday June 27thfrom 4 PM to 7 PM. The cost is $50 (which might seem expensive) but it’s a great piece of data to have if you are looking to change your body composition. Coach Brian does it every 6 months to a year to see if his training is helping me grow as an athlete (and turns out, it has!). You always want to know where you are starting before you plan on how to get to your destination. Or if you have a past measure, this is a great way to see how far you’ve come!
Here is a link to a PDF on information about the BodPod – http://cove-fitness.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/BeFit-Test-Bod-Pod-brochure.pdf
We will post a DoodlePoll sign up shortly!
Non-Cove members are welcome to take the test as well. If you have any questions just email Brian@CrossFitCove.com.
MAEGAN’S FAREWELL WOD!
As many of you know, Maegan is leaving to relocate to North Carolina with her husband next week. Not only has she been amazing to work with, she has taken such great care of so many Cove Kids in the kids’ room — AND she is just an awesome athlete and friend. While we know she’s making the move to make life better for her family, we know her Cove family will miss her terribly.
Please join us for a special “farewell WOD” during Open Gym this Sunday at 10am. You’ll find some of her favorite moments will make an appearance (ahem… deadlifts?!) so come and wish her a fond farewell and stick around after for some snacks and socializing. A bittersweet Sunday Funday in honor of Maegan!

New(ish) member Nassim decided she wanted to give rope climbs a try even though she’s afraid of heights. First time trying…and success! Great work and congrats on overcoming a fear big time!
