Real Fitness. Real Work.

Yesterday, we (Coaches John and Mark) threw hay. For the uninitiated, that means pulling 70# bales of hay out of the field, loading them on the trailer, taking them to the barn, and stacking them 7-8 bales high. Along for the ride was one of our 21 year old nephews. At ages 49 and 42 respectively, we each outworked the kid more than 2 to 1. How were we able to do that? Why are we able to outwork most everyone we know in a similar fashion? Our fitness. The same fitness we develop every day at … [Read more...] about Real Fitness. Real Work.

Live Your Fitness In This Moment

"Fitness is a journey; not a destination." -Coach Josey. There are a lot of great things about having Coach Josey around: fun, affection, silliness, etc. But possibly her greatest teaching gift is her ability to show us how to truly live joyfully in the moment. Life cannot be lived in the past or the present. There is no place or time at which to eventually arrive. There is only this moment. And so it is with fitness. We can (and should) train with the intent of being better each day. But we … [Read more...] about Live Your Fitness In This Moment

Aristotle and Your Training

"Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly." - Aristotle.

For our purposes as fitness enthusiasts, this is both bad news and good news. The bad news is that fitness is … [Read more...] about Aristotle and Your Training

How Healthy Will You Be In 2015?

CrossFit is frequently associated with incredible feats of athleticism, and the equally impressive physiques of its top athletes. And given our natural human desire to excel and "look good naked", that's not a surprising phenomenon. But as we reexamine our priorities for the 2015 New Year, let's look at the deeper benefits of a core strength and conditioning program like CrossFit. It is our observation that every measurable value of health can be put on a continuum that ranges from sickness to … [Read more...] about How Healthy Will You Be In 2015?
