WHO’S THE NEW……OH ITS HOGANS!
By
How many of you have come into the gym lately and thought to yourself, “Who’s the new student that looks like Hogans?” The night that I came back with our new dumbbells I literally looked in the window and thought, “oh wow, who’s that?” and was relatively shocked that it was Christina!
For those people that question whether CrossFit will make women bulky or works as an effective way to tone up, I present to you – The Rapidly Disappearing Hogans. Christina is a living embodiment of the potential of what you can do when you set a goal, work your butt off (literally), have an active participation with your diet, work your butt off some more and embrace the spirit of a performance based program.
In the past 8 weeks Hogans has taken her Back Squat from 125 to 140, completed 3 additional rounds in her 10-minute Cindy, while adding a kipping pull up to her arsenal of awesomeness. Ask her if these results just “showed up” in her life or if she had to work harder than she’s ever worked in her life and I’ll put money down on what her answer will be.
Christina, we thank you for raising the bar in our gym and giving our members a physical display for just how effective hard work and clean eating can be. Your dedication to our program and a lifestyle based on health and wellness is an inspiration even to those of us that might have chosen to do this for a living. Keep up the great work; we couldn’t be prouder of your accomplishments or of being able to call you one of our own.
Today’s Workout:
AMRAP 15
4 Handstand Push Ups
8 KB Swings
20 Sit ups

Congratulations Christina, your improvements are amazing and are an inspiration to us all. I’m glad your with us.
I know that soon enough you’ll be pacing me without a band and with toe pushups.

Awesome work all around, Christina! It’s been exciting watching the changes and progress you’ve experienced over the last 6mths.
I think the helmet look is going to be huge this Spring…way to bring it back.

Christina you are such an inspiration, watching you KICK SERIOUS ASS on the WOD’s and how your dedication to CF and your clean eating is really paying off. You have come such a long way in such a short period of time and I think you rock!
This has made me re-evaluate my goals and realize that taking this stuff seriously pays off big time, and you have inspired me to up my # of days of CF to 4, and to eat better.

Thanks to all of you at CPC who have made me want to push myself, do WODs with the Rx and make these improvements. I honestly could not have done it without the constant encouragement, challenge and paleo tips (Thanks for the cupcakes KJ!).
YOU GUYS are truly the awesome ones!
Crossfitting at CPC (the people and the workouts) have changed my body and my life. Thank you for the kind words
I will be designing a spring line of Hogans’ Helmets in hot pink and aqua for those interested!
