CFW Daily

parkwodwarmupYesterday’s park workout warm-up. Beautiful weather, great exercise, good times.

And then Becky got pounded by B-boy at soccer. She won’t make that mistake again.

Enjoy your weekend! Go run, bike, swim, swing in the hammock, etc. Life is as great as you make it!

Remember the basic CrossFit principles:

Crossfit in 100 Words Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.

- Coach Glassman, CrossFit Founder
