Paramount Strength & Conditioning recently moved into the Mountlake Terrace neighborhood and we are excited to grow a strong presence in our new community. To introduce our new location, we are hosting a Grand Opening & Open House on April 17, 2016 at 22402 44th Ave W. in Mountlake Terrace.

If you’ve always wondered what a CrossFit gym is like, we will be holding free classes every 30 minutes starting at 1pm. The first three classes are open to anyone and the fourth class will be reserved for a Parents and Kids (ages 8-12) workout. This is a great opportunity to meet the coaching staff and try a class to see what the gym is all about! Once class is over, we hope you’ll hang out and socialize while helping yourself to some food and beverages.

Please sign up for a free class by RSVPing to rsvp@paramountbarbellclub.com. Classes are scheduled as follows:

  • 1:00pm
  • 1:30pm
  • 2:00pm
  • 2:30pm (parents & kids workout)
  • 3-4pm Hang out time or WOD for our experienced CrossFit friends

Along with hosting a fun community event, we will be raffling off:

  • One-month memberships
  • Personal training session

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Are You Ready for Summer?

April 5, 2016 by Christopher Douglas

Once spring has sprung, we start thinking about the upcoming bathing suit season. It’s fine to want to look and feel good in your suit this summer, but remember that getting fit is about more than weight – it’s about strength, endurance, and good health, too. If you want to have energy to enjoy the outdoors this summer, there’s no better time to start than right now. Check out our classes and see which one best suits you.

Optimize range of motion, increase athletic performance, and promote recovery

ROMWOD: Stretching Routines for Athletes

  • Boost Performance: increased range of motion can generate power and promote efficiency of functional movements through improved position and posture.
  • Optimize Range of Motion: range of Motion is optimized through the strengthening of ligaments and tendons while simultaneously removing excess fascia through specific stretching routines.
  • Accelerate Recovery: recovery is increased through the natural release of hyaluronic acid while simultaneously resetting the central nervous system.

Grandpa Tom Robertson on CrossFit: I Love It

March 15, 2016 by Christopher Douglas

“CrossFit is and can be for anyone!”
—Coach Chris

As he approached his 70th birthday, Tom Robertson came to a hard realization: he could no longer move around like he used to. He knew if he wanted to be around for his grandchildren, it was time to make a change, so he turned to CrossFit. Here’s his story.

“You can make all kinds of excuses about why something is or isn’t good for you: I’m too fat, I’m too old, I’m too short, I’m too tall, I’m too whatever. The reality is I am who I am, and it’s what I do with who I am, what I’ve got, that makes the difference.” —Grandpa Tom, CrossFit Santa Cruz

Warm Up Early

March 7, 2016 by Christopher Douglas

The reason I like morning warm-ups is the idea of creating a habit. I know I’m always in a rush to squeeze a workout in as a coach. That doesn’t mean I shouldn’t take care of maintenance work for my body. Creating a habit or a ritual can be very responsive to our end goal.

—Coach Chris
