Bring on Passion

There is nothing more outstanding to watch than unbridled passion at it's peak!  So what is passion - 

any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling, as love or hate.

Why So Serious?

Serious - Demanding careful consideration or application

Unattractive Synonyms:
businesslike, cold sober, deadpan, grave, grim, sober, solemn, staid, steady, stern, and my last three favorite:
unhumorous, unsmiling, & weighty. . . .

Cue You

It didn't take long - in hindsight, to learn the basic fundamental movements of CrossFit, but once in awhile we have to throw out the cues that make athlete's react, and react they did. . .

Honoring The Hero

Exceptional job last night on "Abbate" . . .

The CrossFit Virus - Getting the Bug

It started so innocently. . . you know, the CrossFit journey that now has taken a hold on your life.  It started out as a couple of trips to the gym, and POOF. . .

Write it Down - Being Prepared

When we workout or we are getting ready to workout, we should be prepared right?  As prepared as we can be. . .

It Starts Somewhere

Not that we don't already know this, but I came to appreciate the simple statement that everything has to start somewhere, so indulge me . . .

Week 1 Done

So I took the plunge, I put my $10 out there into the CrossFit pool to see where I stand amongst those that compete.  Now, I am pretty sure there are no excuses to anything, but I gotta throw this one out there. . .

Strength

There isn't too much that surprises me on a daily basis, but last night happened to do that and I would like to take the time to discuss a little bit about the technique of the power clean and then talk about last night's workout.

Getting Ready

I started last night off on a sour note.  I was recovering from being sick and I wasn't about to let down the athlete's that I coach and not be there for them.  As I was already on antibiotics and cold medicine, the only thing I really didn't have was my voice, but I would be there for them.
