Hyrox Ottawa ✅🏁 Next up, Toronto 💨 ily @katherine__gray

Expected this one to go a little better 😂 Still recovering from last weekend’s AG @crossfitgames semifinal and definitely not in HYROX shape, but we got it done. Adam absolutely dragged me through the majority of this one. Awesome atmosphere, cool experience, and a fun event to do with a good friend, even though no words were spoken during the suffering! Now back to CrossFit! @syndicatecrown in 2 weeks 👑 #Hyrox #notahyroxer #fitness #fitnesswithfriends @lskd @lskd.usa

✨ PARTNER DROP ✨ We’re excited to introduce another featured partner for the HSKW Fitness Festival… 🌿 Kristine Sondergaard 🌿 Kristine will be guiding a powerful Somatic Movement Practice—and this is something truly unique. So what is somatic movement? It’s a body-first approach to movement that focuses on internal awareness, control, and connection—helping you tune into how your body feels, not just how it performs. Because here’s the thing… A lot of us train hard—but we’ve lost connection to our bodies along the way. That can show up as: • Tightness that never fully goes away • Movements that feel off or restricted • Stress that lives in the body • Feeling disconnected, even during workouts Somatic movement helps you reset that connection. Through slow, intentional movements and guided awareness, Kristine will help you: ✨ Release built-up tension ✨ Improve mobility and control ✨ Move more efficiently ✨ Feel more grounded in your body This isn’t about pushing harder— It’s about learning how to move better, feel better, and reconnect. We love bringing different modalities like this into the festival—and Kristine’s session is one you’ll feel long after it’s over. 🎟️ Link in bio to purchase your tickets! Come experience something different. #ontariofitness #hybridtraining #fitnesscommunity #fitnessevent #KitchenerWaterloo

Something big is coming… Like, really big. Contest drops tonight at 7PM. Don’t miss this. 👀 #contest #hybridseries #community

✨ PARTNER DROP ✨ Introducing another incredible featured partner for the HSKW Fitness Festival… 👊 Move Strong 👊 Based right here in Kitchener, Move Strong is changing the game when it comes to strength, mobility, and long-term performance. No quick fixes. No fluff. Just smarter training that builds resilient, capable bodies that actually last. Here’s what they’re bringing to the festival 👇 Your shoulders are meant to move—freely and without hesitation. Overhead. Behind you. Across your body. But over time, most people lose that ability… Not because they stopped stretching— But because they stopped building strength where it matters. That’s when things start to show up: ⚠️ Restricted overhead ⚠️ Pinching ⚠️ Clicking ⚠️ Avoiding movements altogether This is where Move Strong comes in. 🚫 This is NOT a stretch class ✅ This is intelligent strength training for your joints In this session, you’ll learn how to restore strength and control through your full range of motion—so you can move confidently, train properly, and stop working around limitations. We’re fired up to have the Move Strong team bringing this level of intention and education to the festival 🔥 🎟️ Link in bio to purchase your tickets! Trust us… this is one you don’t want to miss.
