Definition of Cherry picking:  Selecting only the best from a group or other range of choices.

Cherry Picking sucks.  I can't stand it when insurance companies only pick the healthy patients.  Or pharmaceutical companies that only show the good data.   Or when someone picks all the M&M's out of the trail mix.  Ugh.

All over Eugene there's gyms full of Cherry pickers.  Whatever they like best, that's what they do.  As a result, they have a hugely blunted fitness effect.  You like heavy weights? You're going to struggle under a lot of reps.  You like running far?   You're going to be slow. 

Even worse, these cherry pickers often injure themselves by overtraining, creating imbalances in their body and taxing the same muscles repeatedly.
 
There's no cherry pickers in Crossfit, right?  Well I hope not.  We term a cherry picker as one who looks at the WOD, and then decides based on the WOD whether he or she will come.

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.
