[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Welcome to This Day in Barrington History” title_align=”separator_align_left”][vc_column_text]Good morning and welcome to February 25 and Day 56 of 365 in Barrington, Illinois! You’ll find our stories of the day – past, present & future (events) – right here on today’s DailyPage. Because every day has its own rhythm, we’re sharing a song of the day here at 365Barrington.com.
On this day, February 25th in 1943, George Harrison was born. Sometimes called “the quiet Beatle”, the English musician, singer, songwriter and music and film producer achieved international fame as the lead guitarist of the Beatles.
Harrison released several best-selling singles and albums as a solo performer. In 1988, he co-founded the palatinum-selling supergroup, the Traveling Wilburys.
Although the majority of the Beatle’s songs were written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, most Beatles albums from 1965 onwards contained at least two Harrison compositions. His songs for the group include “Taxman“, “Within You Without You“, “While My Guitar Gently Weeps“, “Something” and “Here Comes the Sun” which is our song for today!

💪 LET`S TALK PROTEIN! 💪
You show up to the gym. You put in the work. You`re getting stronger.
But are you giving your body what it needs to recover?
Protein plays a HUGE role in muscle recovery, building and maintaining muscle, and keeping you feeling satisfied throughout the day.
And here`s something we see all the time — people think they`re eating plenty of protein, but when they actually start tracking, they`re surprised by how little they`re getting!
🥩 So how much protein do you actually need?
For many active adults, a good starting point is around 0.7–1 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day, depending on your goals and individual needs.
And no, you don`t need to eat chicken breast six times a day to get there! 😂
Try incorporating a quality protein source into each meal and snack.
Remember: You can`t out-train consistently under fueling your body!
At CFB Nutrition, we`re helping members understand their macros, fuel their workouts, and build sustainable habits that support their goals.
📩 Curious about nutrition coaching? Reach out! We`d love to help!

🍁 16 YEARS STRONG! ❤️💙
What a way to celebrate 16 incredible years of CrossFit Barrington! 🎉
A HUGE thank you to everyone who came out to our CFB Fall Fest & 16th Anniversary celebration! From delicious chili and pumpkin decorating to lots of laughs and great company, it was such a fun afternoon with our CFB family!
🌶️ Let’s talk about that chili cook-off! Every single chili was delicious, but Jen Parisi took home the win! 🏆 And apparently it was Jen’s lucky day because she ALSO won our ruck raffle! Someone needs to take that girl to buy a lottery ticket! 😂👏
But the best part of the day? Seeing our members, spouses, kids, and families all come together outside of our regular gym routine. ❤️
That’s what makes CFB so special. We may come together for the workouts, but it’s the friendships, connections, and community we’ve built over the years that make this place so much more than just a gym.
16 years of fitness, friendships, memories, and showing up for one another. We couldn’t do any of it without YOU!
Here’s to 16 years of CFB and many, many more! 🥂
More than a gym. Always a community. ❤️💙

You probably already know what you should be doing.
Eat enough protein. Drink your water. Move your body. Get enough sleep. Manage your stress.
The hard part? Actually doing those things consistently.
That’s what the CFB 6-Week Nutrition Challenge is about.
For six weeks, we’re taking the guesswork out of nutrition and focusing on simple, repeatable habits that fit into real life. You’ll receive personalized calorie + macro targets, track your daily habits, check in weekly, and have coaching and accountability along the way.
No crash diets. No cutting out entire food groups. No trying to be “perfect” for six weeks.
Just a plan built for you, a little friendly competition, and a reason to finally string some consistent weeks together. 💪
Starts Monday, November 2
$100 for all 6 weeks

REAL RESULTS. 🙌
Penny has been working with CFB 1:1 Nutrition for just 3 months, and her progress speaks for itself:
🔥 10 lbs lost
💪 3 lbs of muscle gained
📉 6% body fat lost
But the numbers are only part of the story.
When Penny started, one of her goals was simple: she wanted to feel good in her dress for her son’s wedding.
Well… last week she told me they had to TAKE. THE. DRESS. IN. 👏👏👏
Over the last three months, Penny has consistently tracked her food, worked toward her nutrition targets, and checked off her daily habits. Nothing crazy. Nothing extreme. Just showing up and putting in the work week after week.
And every month when we sit down and talk about her “bright spots,” one thing keeps coming up: her clothes fit better. She feels better. And other people are noticing the changes, too.
THAT is what we’re after.
And Penny isn’t finished yet. 💪
We’re rolling out our new and improved CFB 1:1 Nutrition Coaching, with an even bigger focus on nutrition, habits, accountability, and building something you can actually stick with.
And if you’re not quite ready for 1:1 coaching, our 6-Week Fall Nutrition Challenge starts November 2nd! It’s the perfect opportunity to dial things in, build some momentum, and see what six weeks of consistency can do.
Penny put in the work—and the results followed. Your turn could be next. ❤️
Send us a message or talk to Coach Lauren at the gym to learn more about 1:1 Nutrition Coaching or the Fall Nutrition Challenge!

Sometimes you show up for the workout… and end up finding your people. ❤️💙
We had to grab a picture after class when we realized these four all showed up twinning 😂 But it also felt like the perfect little reminder of what makes CFB so special.
Inside these walls, friendships are built between sets, during warm-ups, after class, and somewhere in the middle of suffering through a workout together. 🫶
The fitness is great. But the people you get to do it with? That’s the best part.
If you’ve been looking for a place to get stronger, have some fun, and find people who will genuinely be glad to see you walk through the door, come check out what CFB is all about.
Your first class could be the start of a whole lot more than a workout. ❤️💙

🥾 OCTOBER RUCK CHALLENGE IS ON! 🍂
You may have seen it in the newsletter and we know a few of you have already gotten a head start 👀 but it’s time to officially kick off our CFB October Ruck Challenge!
The challenge is simple:
🥾 Grab your ruck
📍 Get outside
💪 Ruck as many miles as you can throughout October
🏆 Most miles at the end of the month WINS! (Log miles on the whiteboard at CFB)
That’s it. Nothing fancy. Just another reason to get outside, get moving, add some extra steps to your day, and maybe get a little competitive with your CFB crew. 😏
Walk the neighborhood. Take the dog. Grab a friend. Ruck before or after class. Stack up those miles however you can!
AND — we’re finishing the month together! 🙌
Weather permitting, we’ll be doing a CFB Community Ruck on Saturday, October 31! More details to come as we get closer.
You have ALL of October — so get moving!
