Most things are not in your control. Let me give you an example. This morning I was planning to wake up at 5:30am and write you a blog post. After posting that to our website and then emailing it to you, I would then check emails and then get Connor ready for daycare. The morning…
One of the most common questions I get during our free intro process is: “Is this a franchise?” and the answer is a resounding “Nope!” There are a lot of fitness franchises out there. A quick google search shows that there are over 1800 fitness franchises available. The benefit to owning a franchise is that…
Now that the holidays are over, you might have come up with some New Year’s resolutions or you’re thinking of one to implement. A lot of you are probably thinking about “eating healthier.” You might be tugging at your clothes and feeling “puffy.” You’re tired and getting winded easily just won’t cut it anymore. This…
It’s that time of year where people are coming down with the flu, colds, allergies, and all the sniffles, sneezes, aches, and pains that you wish you never had. So what do you do when you want to hit the gym or go for a run, but you’re coming down with something? Every case will…
It’s been a pleasure having Stew in the Kanna community for the past year. One of the things that sets him apart is his intense drive to attack his weaknesses – not an easy thing to do for anyone no matter how much CrossFit experience they have. Always coming in early and mobilizing and making…

Have you gone to bed without brushing your teeth? I have. When that happens, my teeth feel gross and for lack of a better term, “mossy.” How often should you brush your teeth? I would say twice (morning and night). Some would say once more after lunch, so kudos to those people who keep a…
by Coach Chris I learned how to type in the 5th grade. Mrs. Szabo had us in front of our computers (Compaqs, I think) and a typing book standing up so we knew which typing drill we were on. At first we learned proper hand placement on the home keys – ASDF for the left…
by Coach Chris Yesterday, I wrote about money and food and how you should cut out the things that don’t bring you joy and focus your resources on the things that do. I posted it to my Facebook page and one of our Kanna members wrote the following: “I’m going to go find [Ramit Sethi]…
