"Helen", Monday, 3/9/09

Hey guys!  I just got back from the work in Chicago (bleh!) and the Dutch Crossfit seminar this weekend (yay!) and I have to say its good to be back!  I can't wait to see each of you and missed you a lot!

I learned a ton from the seminar so expect some changes (both immediate and ongoing) that involve you getting fitter faster.  Some of these changes include:
  1. I'm going to be adjusting your workouts A LOT more based on power outputs.  This means I'm going to have to be on my game as a coach and knowing your ability so I can give you the right type of workout to make you fitter, faster.  This also means
      • Workouts will be shorter
      • Workouts will be more intense
      • Your workout should end at about the same time as everyone else.
      • Workouts should deliver exponentially more results than what you were doing before.  (me and you will test this)
  2. I will be programming the workouts.
      • Remember, you come here for the absolute best fitess - and I have thought long and hard about each of you, and the changes I believe will bring us to our goals faster!
The number 1 thing you can do for me - not get hurt feelings when I scale you DOWN.  I am not scaling you down because I don't think you can do it, I am doing it to maximize your power output.  So when I say to do less reps, run shorter distances, use a lighter weights, or substitute something - I am doing it to make it HARDER not easier. Just trust me and use the weight I tell you to use.  =)

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.
