Crossfit DC would like to recognize two of our long time trainees. Steve Opiyo and Fred Fialco. These two man are truly motivating. Since I’ve known them they have each improved there fitness on so many levels. Fred had become enthralled in Olympic lifting so much so that he has created a club for it that meets every Saturday at Balance Gym. Just in the last few months of Fred’s Oly training he has increased his speed and form significantly.
Steve is fast and strong. Two weeks ago after a epic CFDC workout Steve decided to try a TGU with a 100# DB! We unfortunately we did not get pictures of this impressive achievement.
Every week both Fred and Steve push there limits in all areas of fitness.

Fred shows us some excellent Push press form by driving his head through the arms.
