Ok.  Hows breakfast week going. 

What time do you eat breakfast?  2-2.5 hours after, if you are:

  • loopy (sleepy, brain doesn't work) you ate too much carbs.  Eat less tomorrow.
  •  hungry, you didn't eat enough carbs, eat a bit more or the right ones tomorrow.
Keeping a food journal is going to go miles.   Learn your body.

Of course, Eugene Crossfit's mascot is our dog, Kassi.  We figure it's about time she got a workout dedicated to her, and she's so tough that we had to make sure the workout reflected her no-nonsense attitude towards fitness.  We're also going to take it to the next level and make our target market people with dogs. What do you think of the new website changes?  Post thoughts to comments.


 
Kathy making sure she gets under that bar during grace.  She's in charge.

I saw a blog the other day from one of you gals' friends about having their children do burpees for punishment.

At first, I was delighted at this funny post.  But then I got to thinking, would you ever punish your child by making him read a book - or playing an instrument?

I also know a couple folks that have a complete aversion to exercise who's father punished them with pushups when they were a child.

So what do you think?  Punishment by exercise ok for children?  I vote no if its going to have any impact on how much they enjoy hard exercise in the future. 

What about our group here, for folks (you) who already LOVE the pain of burpees!? Gosh, what a dilemma.

Last week we had an interesting experience.  Everyone at the 6:00 am group watched as Heather randomly picked a workout from the hopper.  Lots of worried faces that morning.
You seemed to be more anxious, hoping she didn't draw something you struggled at, than eager, hoping she would draw something you enjoyed.

Which workout were you dreading to see and why?

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.
