Thats right…we have a tie ladies and gentlemen. We based the ranking purely off of the improvements of two scores:
1- Most amount of Body Fat % loss
2- Most amounts of training days
Congratulations to all of the competitors who participated, and even more kudos to those who gave their best effort to win!!
So with no further ado…the CHAMPS are, Nestor Gialiardi and Carlos Benitez!!! These guys achieved outstanding success for many reasons, but mainly because they were consistent. They showed up…sometimes thats all that is required; show up and the hard work just happens. Nestor had perfect attendance showing up 49 days out of 49 days available; that is dedication!! Rosa you lost almost 9 % of your body fat…that is outstanding!! Again all of you deserve recognition; we are proud to have you as the leaders of our Peak fam! Will you be the next 3-60 Champ??? Spring Challenge coming soon…it will be different, it will be fun and you will be challenged by your peers or your coaches!!! Stay tuned!

Presidents Day is a day to honor the men who have lead our country though the good times and bad. They have dedicated their lives to making our country the best country in the world. One of my personal favorite Presidents was Abraham Lincoln. Not only did he put an end to slavery, and sign the Declaration of Independence; but his philosophies on life are principles that will be followed by all mankind for centuries to come.
“And in the end it is not the years in your life that count, it’s the life in your years.”
― Abraham Lincoln
On another note I am proud to announce that our very own Noah Ohlsen is the Caution CrossFit Grounds Champ….and I couldn’t be more proud of him!!! The minute he walked through the doors at Peak 360 18 months ago he was on a mission. He couldn’t even do Grace at Rx but said he wanted to make it to the CF Games!!! I knew this is the attitude and burning desire it’s takes to go from good to great….all he needed was to trust and believe that all he needed was a simple ingredient that few actually can commit to over a long period of time: Hard Work! You deserve your victory my brother, and I look forward to the day we stand on a podium together!!! Father and son!! Haha ; ) The Peak fam loves you!
