Natural Solutions Class with Savanna & Graham Holmberg - October 28th
Savanna & Graham Holmberg are coming to OV CrossFit in October for the Natural Solutions Class!
This class will be Sunday October 28th beginning at 10am and they will share how natural solutions have impacted their lives.
Here are a few of the topics they will cover:
▪️Recovery (they have some free products to give us!)
▪️Soreness/Tightness/Injury
▪️Sustainable Energy (to help those who work 9-5 and want sustainable energy for their evening WODs and for those who want to go to the next level of training)
▪️Inflammation (how to tame after WODs and then touch on chronic inflammation)
▪️A small bit into family wellness (they love to bring it all together for the moms and dads too!)
They will keep this all within one hour and then will stick around and make themselves available for questions and support.
Get a FREE body scan after class! This is a FREE gift from the Holmberg's that will help you better understand any imbalances you have. This will scan for stress, inflammation, cellular support needs and more. You will get an copy of the scan emailed to you to keep and review with them if you choose.
We hope you can make it!

1-rep-max back squat
1-rep-max shoulder press
1-rep-max deadlift

Cost: $10 (or more) donation + Side Dish to Share
Proceeds from our CrossFit Total BBQ will be donated to benefit Dysautonomia International.
Dysautonomia is an umbrella term used to describe several different medical conditions that cause a malfunction of the Autonomic Nervous System. The Autonomic Nervous System controls the "automatic" functions of the body that we do not consciously think about, such as heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, dilation and constriction of the pupils of the eye, kidney function, and temperature control. People living with various forms of dysautonomia have trouble regulating these systems, which can result in lightheadedness, fainting, unstable blood pressure, abnormal heart rates, malnutrition, and in severe cases, death.
Dysautonomia is not rare. Over 70 million people worldwide live with various forms of dysautonomia. People of any age, gender or race can be impacted. There is no cure for any form of dysautonomia at this time, but Dysautonomia International is funding research to develop better treatments, and hopefully someday a cure for each form of dysautonomia. Despite the high prevalence of dysautonomia, most patients take years to get diagnosed due to a lack of awareness amongst the public and within the medical profession.

OVC "OPEN" Performance Challenge RESULTS!
Over the past 12 weeks we have challenged ourselves to work harder and eat healthier as part of the 2018 OVC "OPEN" Performance Challenge.
We experienced the excitement and struggles of the CrossFit Games Open together and grew as individuals, teams, and a community within OV CrossFit.
In this time we improved in every aspect of our fitness leading to amazing results during our check-out assessments over the past few weeks:
- 330lb. Cluster Improvement
- 942 second Assault Bike Improvement
- 440 rep Wallball Improvment
- 211lbs. Weight Lost
- 97.7lbs. Body Fat Lost
- 2,204 Individual Classes Attended
This was named a "Performance Challenge" because at the end of the day nutrition is about what you put in your body to fuel its performance in life, work, and sport. What you choose to eat is a direct result of the output you will get, whether too much or too little. We hope that everyone was able to realize this in some way during the challenge and make changes that will improve their fitness and life.
After calculating all scores we are excited to announce Team Ionic as the winner of the 2018 OVC "OPEN" Performance Challenge! Congratulations to them, as well as all the other amazing teams on their performance.
We additionally want to award several individuals for the improvements they were able to make in nutrition and performance on a personal level throughout the challenge.
Most Improved Body Composition
Dawn Schoolcraft
Gaby Martin
Most Improved Performance Results
Mark Waters
Karen Norman
Thank you again to everyone who participated in this year's challenge. We look forward to doing this event again next year, as well as adding other performance challenges throughout the year for our members to take advantage of!
