🔥 Push Press Power 🔥

The push press is more than just pressing weight overhead—
it’s about speed, power, and full-body strength. 💥

✅ Builds explosive drive from the legs
✅ Strengthens shoulders & core
✅ Transfers directly to sport & real life

At CrossFit Sarasota, we don’t just lift—we train movements that make you more capable in and out of the gym.

💪 Strong legs + strong shoulders = unstoppable athletes.

👉 Who else loves that feeling of locking out heavy weight overhead?

“Why are we squatting to such a low box?” 🤔

Because learning what below parallel actually feels like is a game-changer.
⠀
Here’s why we sometimes use boxes set just below parallel in class:
⬇️ It gives you a clear target for depth
🧠 It helps your body memorize proper squat mechanics
⚖️ It teaches control—not just strength
📐 It builds confidence in positions you may normally avoid

Too often, people think they’re below parallel… but they’re not quite there.
The box gives you feedback—and feedback builds better movers. 💥

Whether you’re new to squatting or just working on consistency, this tool helps you feel it, fix it, and own it.
⠀
Want to improve your squat? Come train with us. We’ll break it down and build it up.

🏋️‍♀️ Weightlifting: Strong, Not “Bulky”

One of the biggest myths in fitness? 👉 “Lifting weights will make me bulky.”

The truth is, weightlifting won’t turn you into a bodybuilder overnight. What it will do is make you:

✅ Stronger – Building muscle gives you the power to move better in and out of the gym.
✅ Lean & athletic – Lifting boosts metabolism and helps you burn fat long after the workout is over.
✅ More capable in daily life – From carrying groceries to chasing your kids, strength makes everything easier.
✅ Resilient & injury-proof – Strong muscles protect your joints and keep you moving for the long haul.

At CrossFit Sarasota, we don’t lift to get “bulky.” We lift to become more capable humans. To run faster, jump higher, live pain-free, and keep doing the things we love for decades.

💡 Remember: strength isn’t about size. It’s about freedom.

👉 Tag a friend who’s still afraid of the barbell and let’s change their mind.

💪 Why Single-Leg Strength Matters in Your Training

When was the last time you trained one leg at a time? 🦵✨

Most of life (and sport!) happens on one leg — running, jumping, changing direction, even climbing stairs. Building single-leg strength isn’t just about performance, it’s about balance, stability, and longevity.

✅ Improves balance & coordination – Strengthens stabilizers you don’t hit in bilateral lifts.
✅ Fixes imbalances – Identifies and corrects one-sided weaknesses.
✅ Boosts power – Essential for explosive movements like sprints and jumps.
✅ Protects your joints – Strong single-leg patterns reduce injury risk.

That’s why movements like step-ups, lunges, and pistol squats are staples at CrossFit Sarasota. They don’t just make you stronger—they make you more athletic, more resilient, and ready for real life.

🔥 Strong legs = strong foundation. Don’t skip your single-leg work.
