💧🍉 Hydration isn't just about what you drink—it's also about what you eat.

Many fruits and vegetables are made up of 90% water or more, making them a delicious way to support your hydration goals, especially during the warmer months.

Adding more water-rich produce to your meals and snacks can help support:
✅ Hydration
✅ Energy levels
✅ Digestion
✅ Exercise recovery
✅ Overall health

Meet one of our part time coaches, Jenny Dutchess! 💪

Jenny joined our team at the beginning of the year after receiving her CF-L1. She has been a phenomenal coach since day 1! She makes sure each class runs smoothly and everyone gets a great workout, all while having fun doing so. She puts 110% into each class she coaches!
Outside of the gym, she is a teacher. She loves to cook, travel, and spend time with her husband Colton and dog Enzo. Jenny is also our first bilingual coach, being fluent in both English and Spanish!

Read Jenny's 'coaching why' below. ⬇️

"CrossFit brought an incredible community and countless small victories into my life. Becoming a coach is my way of paying that forward. I get to create that environment for everyone else. I love being part of that journey for others—guiding them as they conquer a challenging lift or master a skill they have worked tirelessly to achieve."

⚡ Electrolytes do a lot more than just help with hydration.

These essential minerals play a key role in:
💧 Hydration
🧠 Nerve function
⚖️ Fluid and pH balance
💪 Muscle contractions
❤️ Blood pressure regulation
🔥 Managing inflammation

Electrolytes help attract water into your cells and keep fluids balanced throughout the body—making them especially important during hot weather, exercise, sweating, illness, or periods of dehydration.

Many of the electrolytes your body needs can be found in everyday whole foods like fruits, vegetables, dairy, legumes, nuts, seeds, and quality proteins.

Focus on building balanced meals first, then consider adding electrolytes when your activity level, sweat losses, or hydration needs increase.

1. What is your favorite thing to do in Danville?
I love walking around downtown and taking advantage of the coffee shops, stores, and restaurants that the River District has to offer now.

2. What is your favorite thing about Old 97 CrossFit?
The community at Old 97 is unmatched! It really makes being a member a fun experience because it’s so much more than just a place to workout.

3. What is one fitness goal you have in the coming year?
I would like to get better at both strict and kipping pull-ups.

4. If a workout was named after you, it would definitely have what movement? Why?
Cleans are my favorite lift, so I’ll take a hang, power, or squat clean any day of the week.

5. What’s one thing you’ve achieved since becoming a member?
My strength numbers have improved a lot since I joined, so it was a big personal win for me when I got my back squat up to 185.
