August 14th 2005 CrossFit gymnastics coach Roger Harrell will unveil “Everyman’s Gymnastics” in a one day training seminar at Novato Gymnastics in Novato, California. This event will be a seminal moment in our longstanding effort to reintroduce to athletic strength and conditioning one of the most potent training stimuli in all of sport - gymnastics, which has tragically been absent from general athletic training for decades. All comers regardless of age, weight, sex, or experience are welcome and will benefit from this training. Register early if you plan to attend. Here is Coach Harrell’s suggested preparation for the event.

Uncle Rhabdo!
Warning, these workouts can kill! Acute exertional rhabdomyolysis is a serious clinical illness caused by an injury to skeletal muscle that results in the release of myoglobin and other cellular contents, including creatine kinase (CK-MM fraction) and aldolase, into the circulatory system. It can kill. Several cases of “Rhabdo” have been associated with CrossFit workouts. Only newcomers have been affected and poor fitness has NOT been a factor. We cannot emphasize enough the importance and safety of starting slowly: http://www.crossfit.com/cf-info/start-how.html.
