This week's Shout Out

Naugy’s CrossFit Champ

Brian Mariano, Dean of Students and Athletic Director at Naugatuck High School, found that CrossFit was a great way to stay in shape. However, he kicked it up a notch when he went with his sister flew to Miami to compete in Wodapalooza, an international CrossFit competition, where he ended up placing first in El Circo. 

This involved a series of carrying heavy kettlebells over your head for 90 feet, rope climbs, pulling your toes up to a pull-up bar and a hand-stand walk; and Cortadito, which consists of a series of parallel bar dips, lifting weights, and muscle-ups that require pulling your whole upper body above a pull-up bar. 

Listen to Mariano talk about his cutthroat experience in this week’s Community Shout Out.
