“Last Week @ RainCross…”

So…

Here Come The Tears…

BaseBall… FootBall… General Physical Fitness… Body Building… Strength & Conditioning… Olympic Lifting… Gymnastics… Plyo-Metrics… The List Goes On & On…

Eventually A Coach…

But Still & Always…

A Student… Hence… Why I’m Going BACK To School…

As A Kid… I Started Out With BaseBall Out In L.A. @ Aviation Field… As Well As Throwin’ & Catchin’ A Football With My Grandpa Johnnie @ Lennox Middle School…

I Was Also A Savage @ Dodge Ball @ Buford Elementary School…

Moved To MoVal During My 5th Grade Year… Still Playin’ BaseBall…

Once I Entered Middle School… Pop Warner FootBall…

And I Fell I Love!!!

I Was A “Fatty”… I Was On The Offensive Line… Every Position…

Tackle… Guard… Center… I Even Ran FullBack…

My Last Year Before Going Into High School… My Defense  Coach Asked My Head Coach To Let Me Play LineBacker…

He Said Yes…

After Years Of FootBall Training… Apparently… I Went From A “Fatty To Fit”…

Small But Strong… I’ve Heard That All My Life…

My Last Name Is Macias…

My Coaches Called Me… ” Mac Truck”…

Because That’s How I Would HIT!!!

Not To Harm People… But I Would Just Hit With Intention…

When You’re Performing Any WOD…

You Should “Hit” That WOD With Intention…

With “Smart” Intention…

Same Goes With Coaching & Programming…

I Ain’t Gonna Lie… Shit… Just This Past Week…  Mid-WOD… I Changed The Entire WOD… Why?!?!

As You Were Going Through The WOD… I Realized… I F–Ked Up!!!

So Yes… I’m Human… I Make Mistakes…

But I Also Know How To Fix Things On The Fly…

I’m A United States Marine…

I Hope… I Hope That You Know…

From L.A. Fitness… To CrossFit Riverside… To Our 2 Locations @ RC CrossFit… To Our Last Home… RainCross Strength & Conditioning… To… I’m Still Coming Up With A Name… But All I Got So Far Is “Ryker’s Gym”… Which… I Think Is A Pretty Bad Ass Name… Think About It?!?!

“Where Do You Train?!?!”

“Ryker’s”…

They Would Be Terrified Of You… But You Gotta Say It With Your Chest Pumped Up!!!

Bad Ass!!!

I Want… I Hope… That All Of You Follow Me To Our New Location…

You’ll Have A Clean Fridge… A Clean Bathroom… A Clean Fridge… You Want To To Cook Or BBQ?!?! Sweet!!!

You’ll Have A Safe Place To Work Out… A Safe Place To Run…

What’s Gonna Suck?!?!

Nothing!!!

We’re Going To Have So Much Fun & I Believe That This Might Be The Best Shape/Fitness That You Have Ever Been In/Felt Ever!!!

No Cost To You… But…

Danielley & I Are Going To Invest In A U-Haul Truck & Storage Unit To Hold Our Extra Equipment…

But…

ONLY For Current RainCross Athletes…

1st Month Is Free!!!

(But I Need You To Communicate With Me!!!)

I Want You To See If It’s “Do-Able” For You…

24458 Quail Nest Road

Moreno Valley, Ca 92557

Look For The Giant Flag Pole With The American & Marine Corps Flags…

Again… We Have EVERYTHING!!!

I Completely Understand…

I’m Very Aware That There Are Numerous Gyms You Can Go To…

Or You Might Think That You Can Do It On Your Own…

I Can’t!!!

I Need A Coach… I Need Someone To Tell Me What’s “Right From Wrong”…

I Learn From Them…

And I Pass It On To You…

And That Doesn’t Have To Be In A “Globo Gym”… A 5,000 Square Foot Gym… A 3,000 Square Foot Gym… Or A Garage Gym…

If You’re An Athlete… If You’re Dedicated…

You Know That…

Work Can Be Done…

When… & Where It Needs To Be Done…

It Doesn’t Matter…

I’m Not Trying To Be Rude…

But If You Want The “Soft/Comfy & Cozy” Stuff… I Can Direct You…

You Ladies & Gentlemen Walk Into the BEST… The SMALLEST/BIGGEST in Riverside, California…

RainCross Strength & Conditioning…

You’ve Trained Here For Months… For Years…

I Got My School… I Got My School/Hone Work…

But Nothing Is Going To Off Balance Me Between The “New” Gym and my School…

I Know I Can be An A-Hole…

Sorry…

I’m Also Trying To Run A Business…

A Business… That I Don’t Call A Business…

Family…

When I See You Names/Facs Pop Up On ZenPlanner…

I Get Excitced!!!

“I Get To See My Friend!!!”…

And I Hope To Be Able To See You… To Coach/Train You… Just To Be Your Friend… For A Lifetime…

One More Week…

Let’s Do This!!!

ALRIGHT… HERE WE GO!!!

Active Rest Day… GET OUT & DO SOMETHING!!!

3…2…1… GO!!!
