  • Bring a water bottle to class with you - make sure you are drinking plenty of water.  Drink more if it's hot out.
  • Ecrossfit Challenge follow up coming up soon (on the 20th).  Get ready to crush your past score.
  • Goat = A pet that is very troublesome.  We use the term 'goat' as something that you are not very good at.  Example:  "I would have won the Crossfit Games but my goat showed up in the workout!"
Post to comments your goat, and what you are doing, if anything, to get rid of it.

So apparently very little data revealed today about Saturday - just some teasers.  Turns out that they are not announcing the actual workouts until Friday night.    Lets plan on starting at 8:00 am on Saturday, who knows what we're going to do!  I need you to go sign up now and commit to come.

Here's what we know:
We know there is great anticipation about what the events will be at this year's Games, so we're tipping our hand a little early.

Here's what we can tell you now about the Individual competition.

Event 1 is a run noticeably longer than last year's. Teaser video ... [wmv] [mov]
Event 2 is a heavy lift in a timed environment.
Event 3 is a run noticeably shorter than last year's.
Event 4 is something completely different.
Event 5 is a couplet.

Sunday will have three events of noticeably different time domains.

Besides running, only one movement is repeated in the 8 total events.

Man, I'm noticing HUGE gains from every single person in here - It's really firing me up.  I love it.

Across the board, you all are doing a great job getting stronger, faster, more explosive, and better at everything.  Everything.  It's amazing.

And if you guys want to push a bit more, I'm willing to help - just ask.  I've got people doing running technique work on the side, folks coming early and staying late to work on their goat, and lots of people on different specialized diets for cutting and gaining.

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.
