Fall is always an exciting time at Pat’s Gym. We had great success at the CrossFit Games. We have partnered up with a company that will help you recover faster. We’re focusing on having new equipment and incorporating those tools into classes, privates, and Online Coaching. Also, the cooler temperatures mean we must hit the workouts harder to stay warm and keep pushing forward. Set your goals, have focus, and stay consistent!
The CrossFit games were a huge success
Over the past 5 months we have had Roman Khrennikov live with us in Madison WI after Roza was able to get him a Visa for the US. He has worked out every day (3 times a day) at Pat’s Gym. His dedication to recovery, nutrition, working out, and stress management paid off with becoming the second fittest person in the world. After the huge accomplishment Roman and his family decided to keep living in Madison and train again at Pat’s Gym with the goal of winning the games next year. They have become a part of the Pat’s Gym family so next time you are in the gym say hi and jump in a workout with him.
Badger State Hydrate
IV therapy benefits many people, whether that’s providing the essential nutrients they need to live, helping them recovery faster between workouts/sporting events, helping improve their quality of life by addressing symptoms such as dehydration, or just simply making people feel better. But that list merely scratches the surface of what IV hydration can do for your body. If you’re interested in exploring what IV hydration can do for you, then check out https://badgerstatehydrate.com. They were kind enough to extend a 20% discount to members of Pat’s Gym if you want to give it a try. The formula that we personally use to help recovery is:
Pat’s Elite Athlete Recovery with NAD
B complex (B1/B3-200mg, B2/B5/B6 4mg)
B12 (cyanocobalamin-1mg)
Mag chloride (800mg)
Calcium Gluconate (200mg)
Taurine (500mg)
Amino Acid Blend (100/100/100mg/mL)
Glutathione (1000mg)
Selenium (100MICROgrams)

This formula combines NAD+, Taurine, and Glutathione, the ultimate trifecta for cellular recovery, with Magnesium and Calcium for muscle and bone health and regeneration.
Here is an article that Pat has written to inform you about all the benefits with using IV therapy.
