CrossFit Polaris Raises Over $7000 for Breast Cancer Organization -by Jessica Clay

I would like to say thank you to PROLAB for helping out at the numerous CrossFit events that I have been involved with recently. Many CrossFit Athletes are becoming aware of the benefits of proper supplementation and are turning to PROLAB products to help them achieve their physical goals!  My Team and I have provided PROLAB samples at numerous CrossFit gyms around town, and PROLAB has been kind enough to provide Product Prizes for our various events.

The feedback from the athlete has been fantastic!  They mention having better stamina, improved recovery, better focus as well as improved strength and energy. Some of the PROLAB samples and prizes included:

  1. Beta Alanine Extreme
  2. BCAA Plus
  3. Glutamine Powder
  4. Quick Fire

Below are some of the events that myself and PROLAB have been involved in over the past few weeks.  And yes!  We have been busy!

1)     As a co-owner of CrossFit Polaris we hosted an event called:  Barbellsforboobs.org (B4B).

Barbells for Boobs is a 501(c)3 non-profit breast cancer organization whose mission is to provide funding through the MAMMOGRAMS IN ACTION ® GRANT PROGRAM for qualified low-income and uninsured women and men who need screening and/or diagnostic procedures in the prevention of breast cancer.  This event was an amazing success!  We were able to raise over $7,000+ dollars for B4B!

At the event, participants did a WOD called “GRACE.”  This WOD includes doing 135lbs. Clean & Jerks (the ladies did 95lbs.) – and whoever does the most in 30 seconds wins.

The top 3 Males and Females received awards including PROLAB Glutamine, Quick Fire, and BCAA Plus. First place Male and Female winners also received PROLAB prizes.  Not to mention all the samples that were handed out throughout the day.

2)     Friendship CrossFit is another local CrossFit Gym.  They hosted a Master’s event recently that was a great success! In their awards and giveaways were PROLAB samples and supplements; I received great feedback from some of the athletes that received the award supplements.

3)     This past weekend was the Columbus Marathon.  I volunteered at an aid station and CrossFit Polaris was there giving out brochures of our CrossFit gym, samples of PROLAB and showing people was CrossFit is all about.

Thanks again to PROLAB for continuing to help in our CrossFit community!
