Topic: New Lifter

[Mark Cannella]

Folks:
There is a new lifter that is interested in clubs in the DC area.
I sent him the link from the USAW site for clubs; however, if you could chime in that would be great.
Below is his e-mail addy and where he will be at.

Furthermore, I'm going to be moving to the D.C. area in April and would like to continue O-lifting. If you know of any facilities close to the zip code of 20762, please let me know. This area is about 10 miles southeast of downtown D.C..

Mark,

I got this from Joe Prusacki's google Weightlifting club map:

SPARTACUS
Last Updated by Joe on Apr 27
ATTN:  Frank Bires
921 Vicar Lane
Arlington, VA  22302

Looks like it might be a possibility....good luck!

Groovy.

Aaron Adams is getting close:)

We are in the process of getting a club together in DC itself.   We train out of a private PT/ athletic training place in North West DC, where I also run conditioning classes.   We will be getting our second platform in a week or so, and will be registering with USAW(as Capital Barbell Club) as soon as two of us do the certification in Hummelstown.  You can see we are starting from the ground up, but we want to promote weightlifting in the nations capital.   Anyone who is in the area would be a welcome addition.

Hi Tom,

Could you forward your info to Eric?

He is a crossfitter, but has great potential in the quick lifts.

Regards,

Mark

Mark, I will email him today.   Actually, I have been teaching CrossFit since 2005, and working with coach Burgner  led me deeper into weightlifting.  Thanks.

Also, always good to have another Ohioan around.   I'm from Cleveland.
