Homework! What to do when I'm gone!

Put what you did this week  (including the time and the reps) on the comments:

So as you know I'll be gone Monday - Friday on business.  While I'm down in New Orlenes, I'm certainly not going to take the week off, and hopefully you're not either.

There's tons of stuff you can still do without access to the garage gym.  Hop on the crossfit main page and see if the WOD is something you can do, or maybe its something you can modify.  For example. here are the last two days of stuff:

"Griff"

For time:
Run 800 meters
Run 400 meters backwards
Run 800 meters
Run 400 meters backwards

Post time to comments.

Ten rounds for time of:
12 Burpees
12 Pull-ups

Post time to comments.

There's a couple workouts that you can totally do - all you need is a pullup bar for the second one.


Here are some other workouts that come to mind that you can do by yourself:

1.  400 meters of lunges (you may want to scale this one way back, ouch!) report time and total lunges.
2.  Tabata (20 seconds on and 10 seconds off - 8 rounds {4 minutes total}) of anything:
       a.  pullups, pushups, situps, squats (Tabata This (official crossfit workout))
       b.  squats
       c.  jumping squats, throw your hands and touch the ceiling on each one
       d.  my personal favorite, set the treadmill to the highest incline and tabata it 2, 3, or even 4 rounds (record speed on each round)
3.   150 burpees for time
4.  Run 5k for time
5.  4x800 meters, or 4x400 meters for time
          note:  if your not used to running fast, dont go much shorter than 400 meters, you may             pull a hammy.
6.  4 rounds of as many jumping squats touching the ceiling as you can.  As soon as you miss touching the ceiling, stop and rest 2 minutes until you start the next round.  Report total number of reps and height of ceiling.
7.  Come over and grab the heavy 20 pound wallball out of the garage.  Toss it across the field and back for time.
8.  Turkish getups with your kids

And geez theres a million more.  Most importantly what I want you to do this week is improve your diet.  Good luck and I'll see you soon!

Warning

Don't try Eugene Crossfit if you want to keep the drudgery in your workouts. There are plenty of workout plans that deliver little results, are boring, and don't really have a goal in mind.

Crossfit is very bothersome for people who like workouts like these.

Crossfit will change the way you think about your workouts, and by doing that you see amazing results. You immediatly learn to love to workout, to push your body, to try new things. The program you recieve here will make you fitter faster than anything you can imagine. Every client that has given it a month will testify.

You don't have to be an athlete to come. Heck, you can be in the worst shape of your life, I scale you back and ramp it up at a steady and safe pace. You'll have the results that you never thought possible in no time. And once you get there, you'll be thirsty for more. (instead of yo-yoing)

Eugene Crossfit is NOT a gym. It is a fitness school. In time, along with getting fit, you will learn technique on everything, how to apply intensity, the aspects of fitness, how and what to eat, recovery, motivation, virtuosity, flexibility and much more.

Give me a call or shoot me an email for your free 1 on 1 introductory session. Lets get started now.
