Details on the Renovation

We want to update you on the status of our current space, the newly removed wall, and the planned renovations.  We are secure in our space for the next year.  If you’ve been to Roots this week (and it’s already Wednesday so we hope you have!) you most likely noticed the gigantic logo wall missing from our space.  Over the next three weeks we have a major face lift planned for the space.  Improvements include a fresh coat of paint, changing stations, larger cubbies, a water bottle shelf, and more kettlebells.  Also in the works is an expansion of the pull-up bar to include 7-foot bars; however, that will occur later this spring.

We appreciate your understanding over the next few weeks.

    Or we could add a 25′ pull-up bar with a rope to climb up to it as a way of teaching me to not break up sets…

    From now on, if I ever have to show somebody what fierce determination looks like, I’m using the pics of Olivia doing muscle-ups. Awesome!

    Thanks for posting the photos. You all got after it!

    The thought running through my mind when doing the 95lb squat cleans was more like F*&K this is heavy 🙂 I love the picture of Olivia doing muscle ups!

    Nicole – Many thanks again for the workout today. It was great to drop in and see CrossFit Roots in actions. Fun WOD today.

    I look forward to cheering on the CrossFit Roots folks along with my MBS CrossFit athletes at Regionals and then in Aromas! You rocked it this past weekend – and made it look graceful!
