Our Favorite Things

We believe that you don’t need a lot to get started.

But that doesn’t mean there aren’t tools that we love & recommend for athletes. These are a few of our favorite things.


Lifters
Wearing lifters can help with mobility, especially the bottom of your squat. Jared wears Nike Romaleos & Alison wears Reebok Lifters.

Weightlifting Belt
You can wear a weightlifting belt as a reminder to brace your core for those heavier lifts — over 80% of your 1 rep max. We both wear 2POOD weight belts.

Knee Sleeves
Knee sleeves give extra support to your knees when squatting or lifting heavy weights. We both wear Rehband knee sleeves.

VooDoo Floss
Keep a VooDoo Floss band in your gym bag so you have it handy the next time you’re feeling sore from a workout.

Boxstar Apparel
If you’re looking for some fun shirts or comfy hoodies, Boxstar Apparel is a good spot to check out. You can use the code JARED15 to save money on your order & Jared will get a small thank you too.

Vital Proteins
Taking Collagen Peptides has helped Alison with minimizing joint creaks & pain. Try the flavorless stuff from Vital Proteins in your water or shaker bottle.

FNX Fit
If you’re looking for some good supplements, FNX is our favorite. Jared likes their whey protein & BCAAs. Alison likes their creatine & AM protein powder. Use code MONDAY15 to save money on your order & send Alison a small thank you too.

When Jared & Alison wanted to host a seminar at CrossFit DeForest, we knew that it would be a great opportunity that couldn’t be passed up. Individually, they each have years of experience as athletes, mentors, instructors, & coaches.
