“I am being strict with the diet. I am getting serious headaches and my energy is super low. I had to leave work today. I feel really burned out. I would love some pointers. Should I keep doing what I’m doing or do something a little differently.
On a positive [...]
Day 3 for the Paleo Zoners. I think Erin has a good point in her comment from yesterday and it is the exact sentiment that Robb Wolf emphasizes at his Nutrition seminars. If Paleo-Person came to to Tucson they’d be lined up at DQ. The human being is not hard-wired for self-control with regard to [...]
I love Grace. A whole bunch of you did 30 Clean and Jerks for time yesterday and it was pretty cool. I believe there was even a men-followed-by-women version at 5:00. I like the picture of Larry’s pull at the top and look at those elbows on Cullen! His technique is so good. Christine’s push [...]
Hey!! We have about 25 people going Paleo tomorrow and Zoning too. Awesome. If you are not one of these people be ready to be a little bit patient with your fellow CrossFitters in the next couple weeks as they adjust to a new way of eating. And then, watch out… Well, I’ve been to [...]
Check out www.crossfit.com on Sat April 25.
You will see two videos from the Regional Qualifying Games this weekend that really give you an idea of what the whole thing was like (and I know some of you are thinking about next year…). Especially interesting was the women’s competition. Due to the point system that was [...]
What do all these photos have in common? They are all of an unbelievable athlete getting their range of motion verified. On a daily basis during your workouts we focus on increasing your range of motion, making sure you are doing each move safely and to the extent of your ability. Very, very rarely do [...]
One of the things I love about CrossFit’s group workouts is the chance to be absolutely inspired by watching someone else’s workout. When I am in a rut with my training or losing focus or getting discouraged it can all be fixed by seeing a really huge effort by someone else. This weekend, in Flagstaff [...]
Hello from Flagstaff, AZ!
Carl, Kate, Andres and Jenny and I are all here for the Regional Qualifying Games. Carl, Kate, Andres and Jenny are all volunteers which means they get to tighten bumper plates on bars after they’ve been dropped, watch the 100M sand bag carry lines, keep runners safe at street corners and other [...]
Hey, hey. Heather got her first kipping pull up the other day. That certainly is a huge milestone for a CrossFitter. Congratulations on that sister! Heather is going to be one of these quiet, unobtrusive, suddenly top finishing people in your workouts. Watch and wait. The other thing that Heather got recently, and perhaps no [...]
Well, April 15th-Tax Day. I actually began this day happily at my accountant’s office, picking up my completed taxes. Bryce at Pinnacle Accounting, Financial Guidance Services fixed me up. It is so important to have people in life that really offer information, support and guidance in a respectful way. I feel like my accountant should [...]
I have become accustomed to a small quiet 6am start to my Tuesdays. Hanging out with Susie or maybe Heather and Kristine. Today a whole bunch of you came out to start your Tue with some heavy deadlifts and some 800m runs (hmmm, I guess I’m giving something away to those of you who are [...]
As I think I said before, one of the best reasons for venturing out to the Farmer’s Markets are proper eggs. Contrary to what many proponents of the Paleo Diet say (including Dr. Cordain), there is a vast difference in the nutrient content of food depending on how it is raised. I’ve seen enough lab [...]
This is Matt and congratulations on your first Muscle Up! I love seeing Matt work out. Fast, flexible, graceful, pretty strong. He is very understated when it comes to this whole CrossFit thing. Like some people would’ve been telling everyone who came in the door, “Hey, guess what? I did my first muscle up tonight!” [...]
Hey there everyone, April is upon us (sort of took me by surprise with this whole sickness thing). Here is what you need to know: This Friday, April 10th the 5:30 class will be a “Member’s Choice” pick your own CrossFit Benchmark workout, either a “Hero” or a “Girl” and attack it. We [...]
