Can Girls Get Strong?
Holiday Bodyweight Challenge - Day 30 - Half Way!
Can high school girls get stronger and improve their athletic performance through a properly structured stength and conditioning program? Absolutely! Strength training isn't just for football players!
Check out this video of Hallie Kuhlman, the Kansas state high school track champion in the 100m, 200m, 400m, and 800m!! She obviously works really hard, and is not afraid to sweat. My bet is she doesn't whine much, if at all. Getting a leg up, on the playing field or in life, is easy, if you're willing to do the work. Interestingly enough, most girls are unwilling to put in the work. Hmm.
Who's ready to raise their game? Who wants to be the next state champion?

Hallie is a beast. An absolute beast. And CrossFit Endurance has made her even better.

‘The Chief’ as rx: 5+3, 4, 4+1, 4, 4…up basically an entire cycle in 3rd, 4th and 5th round over last time.
Again, it pays to slack off on the challenge, with 132 pushups completed today of 149 owed…sweet.
