Good grief Kennedy! This looks like a Hollywood poster for an action thriller staring ‘Stud Muffin’. Josh K is the real deal in and out of the gym. He loves his family, his community, and his country. He does right by all and does so with character and humility. He’s also been doing CrossFit before it had a name and continues to climb mountains in his total fitness. You’re the man!

Bad to the bone!

Oh yeah, there he is! This man is a fitness icon and he's been getting after it CrossFit Huntsville style for as long as I can remember. Josh has run, hiked, and trekked across more terrain than most people will ever see. He's a man of loyalty, commitment and service, to his family, his community and his country. Come on! You GOT to love Josh Kennedy! :)

Josh makin' that run look easy breezy...

Awesome coaching this morning, Bradley!

What most people don’t realize. Is when this beast works out on Saturday mornings at 8:00. He has already ran 8-10 miles on a trail. Looking good Josh.

Okay so knowing this is how he looks after a 8-10 mile run means I have to step up my game. Great Picture Josh!
Always a good class when you are there!

Josh!! This dude is THE MAN! Been in the CF game for a long time and it shows. Now he’s got his son, Andrew, following right in his footsteps. Such great people and honored to have the opportunity to coach two of his boys! The apples haven’t fallen far from the tree... all natural athletes and awesome people!

Thanks to all, some pretty good photoshop action in that picture! Think we were doing “Naughty Nancy@, but not sure I was actually running at the point. Just glad the natural lighting didn’t show my greying chest hair.

With my 15sec of fame, would like to make a shout-out to the entire CFHSV staff and athletes group. In my wanderings for work over the years I’ve gotten to visit a pretty good array of boxes, in the USA and internationally. I am very comfortable in saying that our box is at 95th+ percentile of all the boxes out there. We have it very good! The combo of facilities, top-notch programming, array of athletes, Kids and specialty programs, and more all go into that. And our staff, oh my gosh our staff: among the best you will ever see. Knowledgeable, intense, disciplined, friendly, hard-working, helpful. Mandee, N8, Misty (normal classes and Kids), Bradley, Clair (yoga), Carolyn (kids) Bryan, Bailey, et al just an awesome team. A measure of how good we all have is how the staff and the whole box handled the COVID shutdown, then re-start, and just kept on trucking. All three of our sons have been part of CFHSV, and they learned a ton about taking care of themselves. Last month was my 10-year anniversary with CFHSV, and will happily the bills for another 10 years; money well spent!
In the meanwhile: all squats should be A2G, don’t peel your pushups, and accessory work is your friend.

I could not agree with you more on all points. I was just telling a friend today CFHSV has been the best investment for our entire family. No question, worth every penny. Coaches are super invested in every athlete, the athletes show out every day, programming is awesome. CFHSV is not just functional fitness. It’s so much more than that. I think that’s the secret sauce through the pandemic especially. At the core we're all in this together.
