Memorial Day CrossFit Murph at Sugarhouse Park

If you have what it takes, join us at Sugarhouse Park on Memorial Day for a CrossFit tribute to our fallen men and women.

We will be doing the original CrossFit Hero workout “Murph” named in honor of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy.

Bring your own 20# weighted vest, body armor, or rucksack to compete for prizes.

Anyone can enter and there is no entry fee.

CrossFit Mt Olympus honors Murph

You can do “Murph” alone or in teams.  The only cost is your sweat.

Workouts will begin at 8am, 9am and 10am. The hardcore firebreathers will be there at 7:00am to help Tommy set up the pull-up rig!.

Bring your friends and family! We will assemble teams at the site for those who don’t yet have the fitness level to do it solo.

 We’re doing the workout for pride and The Dirty Dash has donated prizes with guaranteed entry to the sold-out race on June 2nd:

            • Fastest Male Time (weighted vest required)
            • Female Solo Time (weighted vest required)
            • Fastest 2 person team
            • Fastest 3 person team
            • Coaches Favorite–Best Effort

CrossFit Mt Olympus gets down and dirty!

Achiva Native Energy will be on hand to keep everyone fueled for this grueling workout.

19 May, New Classes Coming

We are excited to start our new schedule next week!  Check the schedule before coming in!

CrossFit BootCamp

We will introduce our new CrossFit BootCamp series which will be required for all new clients.  The BootCamp classes will teach the fundamentals of CrossFit followed by a benchmark workout.

CrossFit Mt Olympus Bootcamp

We highly recommend current Mt Olympians attend the entire series. We value virtuosity–doing the common uncommonly well.  You will perform better if your fundamentals are sound.  Feel free to attend to any of the BootCamp classes at anytime.

CrossFit Endurance

Running

Tuesday morning at 5:30 will become an Endurance–Running class.  We will meet at Sugarhouse Park or the Highland Track depending on the workout and go through CrossFit Endurance workouts designed to help you run further and faster.

Learn to Run at CrossFit Mt Olympus

We have partnered with Altra Running to begin the Learn to Run Intitiative in Salt Lake City.  You can now get outstanding coaching on run form in Salt Lake City.  Our first event will be May 28th at 8:00am and cost is only $10.  Membership discounts apply.

Swimming

The Thursday morning 5:30 class will be held at a local pool (to be determined) for those looking to add a different endurance element to your training regimen.  Coach Brandon will take the lead on these.

They aren’t just for triathletes.  Swimming requires a different skill set than any other cardiovascular training modality and will improve many of your other training.  No matter what you’re training for, get at least one of these in every month.
