Waves of the Future!

Waves of the Future!

Crossfit Kids Pacific Coast kicks off Wednesday, March 9th and I could not be more excited. The equipment has arrived, the workouts are programed so get your children in the doors so we can build the waves of the future!

Top 5 reasons you sign your child up for Crossfit:

1. CrossFit Kids is a safe and effective way to ensure your children are physically fit, stronger, faster and healthier. Some may be concerned about the safety of Crossfit for kids but according to a CrossFit Journal article from 2008, "Our experience with Crossfit kids is testimony that weightlifting is a safe and positive activity for kids. Not only are we seeing injury free strength gains and increased coordination. We are witnessing perceptual changes in what they believe about themselves and their abilities." A host of articles generated by the scientific community reinforce this with their statement that "strength training is safe and beneficial for children and teens."

2. Crossfit Kids will make your child smarter. Studies have shown that areas involved in movement and learning are intimately connected, and physical activity
could increase those neural connections. Physical activity can not only increase hormone levels which impact mental performance but can improve a child's attention and focus levels. Crossfit Kids programs have shown the ability to increase students' grades and motivation in school. Kids are strongly encouraged to study for 15 minutes after their workout.

3. Crossfit will make your children tired! Enough said!

4. Crossfit Kids will increase your child's confidence and motivation.

5. CrossFit Kids prepares our children for the future. Not only will children build a life long love of fitness but they will also gain invaluable knowledge about nutrition, healthy life styles and their bodies.
