Mouth to Mouth

Now that I have your attention...

When was the last time you got certified in the life saving technique of CPR? Did you know it's no longer 15 compressions and 2 breaths (if you still think it's 5:2, we really need to talk). Compressions, which has much greater emphasis, should now be performed at a rate of 100/minute. Did you also know that anyone can use a defibrillator now? Did you know that there is such a thing as Compression Only CPR (no breaths)? I have another tidbit for you... I'm sure you're familiar with A-B-C (Airway, Breathing, Chest compressions). As of October 18th of this year, the American Heart Association released new guidelines for CPR. If you want to find out what that change is, you have to be at King CrossFit this Sunday, November 7th, from 9 am to 1 pm.
There is an Adult/Child/Infant CPR class being offered this Sunday at the box. You'll also learn how to deal with Foreign-Body Airway Obstructions and learn about Automated External Defibrillators. There is no written exam either! You get a card good for 2 years and the comforting knowledge of this important skill. You get all this for the low low price of $35. This class is for you, your spouse, and your family. Sign up on the white board at KCF.
See you Sunday!
