Olympic Weightlifting Foundations Course
Want to gain access to those sweet Olympic Weightlifting classes? Here’s your chance!
Beginning June 1st, CrossFit Roots will offer a 3-week Olympic Weightlifting Foundations Course. Similar to the CrossFit Foundations Course, the purpose of the sessions are to introduce athletes to the form and technique of the Olympic lifts and get them to the point where they can assimilate into the group training environment specific to the Olympic classes.
The course will meet Tuesday and Thursday at 4pm for 3 weeks. For more information or to sign-up, visit here.

The Cordain recipe of the week is one using Sunchokes, I have never heard of or seen them. Can anyone confirm you can get them at WF ? Anyone had them ?

Apparently they are a starchy tuber. It may be off-limits.
