Cressey Performance is in the midst of a massive renovation, and last night was demolition night. Myself, Eric, as well as a few CP interns/clients who were present grabbed the sledgehammer and took a few whacks at the walls. I took video of it, but for some reason my digital camera is being a jerk… Read more
Well I hope everyone had a safe and Happy Kwanzakahmas; or, Merry Chrishanuza (depending on your degree of political correctness) this past weekend.

I know I’ve been slacking on the content as of late, but it’s for good reason – I swear! For starters, Cressey Performance is continually growing; and, as of last week, not only did we break our record for most sessions done in a day (twice!), but we broke our weekly record as well. Needless… Read more
