Where Science Meets Fitness

No matter what your current fitness level or former athletic experience, you can learn to train like an Olympic-caliber athlete. I am Erin Borchard, a former elite springboard/platform diver (NCAA Champion and multi-year All-American at Stanford University, former member of the US National Diving Team, and two-time competitor at the US Olympic Team Trials), specializing in personal and small group training sessions. I am also a Phi Beta Kappa student with a B.A. in Human Biology; my strong science background is an ever present influence shaping and changing my training philosophy.

I want to help you push yourself to YOUR maximum...you'll be shocked to find the true athlete living inside of you.

"Best of the Open"


The Best of the CrossFit Open WODs - Athlete’s Choice

EQUIP: Barbell, Pull-Up Bar, Jump Rope

NOTE: Hand out a # on a piece of paper to each person in class.  Keep a hat full of pieces of paper with a matching set of #s inside.  Pull out a #, call it out, and ask the person with the matching # to pick the WOD to do right then.  Once that WOD is done, rest and recover, then pull another # out of the hat for another person to pick the next WOD…until we run out of class time.

The WODs in purple are the ones my athletes chose to do today.  We completed them in this order: 12.1, 11.5, and then 11.1.

NOTE: “In this movement, the barbell goes from ground to overhead with the athlete passing through a full squat position while the barbell is racked on the shoulders. This can be a full-squat-clean-thruster, a power-clean-front-squat-split-jerk, or anything in between as long as the three key positions are reached. The barbell begins on the ground. Touch and go is permitted. No bouncing. The athlete must pass through a full squat with hips below knees. The barbell must come to full lockout overhead with the hips, knees and arms fully extended, and the bar directly over the heels.” (www.games.crossfit.com)
