A friend of mine just joined John and I at the Lake County YMCA to do Crossfit workouts with us this week. He has been active and in-shape for many years, but has never done anything like Crossfit before. That being said, as the three of us finished our workout this morning, apparently we caught the attention of a couple other people. On our way out we were stopped by two guys in their mid-twenties who wanted to know if we were doing Crossfit! They were very interested and are going to come do a workout with us this Thursday. They both said they were tired of doing the same boring stuff in the gym and wanted to do something that was functional, purposeful and "not boring". The fever is catching and people are starting to notice a difference between Crossfitters and everyone else all over the world. If you still don't know what Crossfit is, follow this link and find out.
The reason I do Crossfit is to get stronger, faster, and more agile and set that precedent for my family. So far, I have seen stellar results. Crossfit, combined with a healthy lifestyle (healthy diet and proper amounts of sleep/rest) will transform your life, and that is a guarantee you can take to the bank.
Today's workout was:
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
Power Cleans (135/95)
Push Press (135/95)
Run 200m
(Got this one from the Crossfit 440 website, which is a local Crossfit box in Mentor, OH)
I did the power cleans and push press at 115 after going to almost failure the first round with 135.
And finally a shout out to my boys Henry and Ronnie for getting their Crossfit Level 1 certs this past weekend! Way to go fellas!
