Re: Stop Anthos from Taking over CrossFit

Re: Conditional use permit
I've worked with economic development folks, and they're very good at getting you through the red tape legally. But remember, "legally" involves no special exemptions, so if technically the law says...

Re: Startup Costs
That's a pretty neat calculator. Pretty simple.
My suggestion: Do NOT take out a loan to start a business. Also, don't empty your savings to go massive right off the bat. Start small, learn it,...

Re: Conditional use permit
Ugh, don't get me started. I'm in Michigan and it's bad enough, I couldn't imagine trying to open a business (*gasp* profit?!?) in California.
My suggestion to people is to start small (read:...

Re: Speal Strength
Speal is fast. That's his thing. Snatch, C&J, and other movements like that lend well to speed. Brute strength (though he is strong) isn't his strong point.

Re: Trans Fat illegal in CA.

Re: Pendlay econ bars?
I don't know, but if they were, I'd suggest just going one step up to the HD bar (if it's still available). We just went with the Rogue bars, and love them. No bending issues like we had with an...
