Running is a skill!

Most folks know that to participate in sport at a relatively accomplished level you must be prepared.  You must be conditioned and you must have a mastery of the skill sets involved. This is obvious for almost every sport you can think of.  You wouldn’t dream of expecting to be a good volleyball player without countless hours of drills with a volleyball.

Funny thing when we look at the sport of running. 

Paleo Challenge ends tomorrow!

We’ve had several folks get their after pic taken already and we’re excited to see the results!  Remember to get your photograph taken by tomorrow evening! 

Saturday Elements Off & Running!

For Karina, Laura, Ashley & Nick, this Saturday started out with a good old fashion butt kickin’. While some of you were still sleeping, a few of them were introduced to the box jump, and they all refined their skills on the rower & kettle bell swing. They ALL did a fantastic job, and when they caught their breath, they even thanked me when they were done! Only Crossfitters!

6 Days and counting…

The days are slipping by and before you know it the camera will be out and it will be SHOW TIME.  Who is going to win our 2009 Paleo challenge…the proof will be in the picture!

My Favorite: Squash Soup!

Stormy weather calls for warm, Paleo-friendly meals and soup is the first thing that comes to my mind! I picked up this squash soup recipe from Laura (see her rope climb picture in Sarah’s post yesterday!) and I absolutely love it. I use this recipe not only as soup, but also pour it over my veggies, chicken, and ground beef. It is a fast and easy way to change up your meals. 

Oh Yes You Can!

We all have moments of self doubt.  Who hasn’t second guessed one’s own ability, wondered how he or she might ever reach the top of the mountain, finish the race, get a promotion, or finish that CrossFit workout?  But, the truth is, you can! 

New Classes and Some Monday Entertainment!

Our March On Ramp classes are now posted!  Our morning class will begin on March 9th and the evening class on March 16th.  Check the sidebar for details and to sign up!

Also beginning this Saturday Feb 21st Eric will be teaching a 9am Saturday Elements class.  We are going to try it for a month and see if there is enough demand to have it be a fixed part of the schedule.

Now for your Monday entertainment:

Are you still IN?

We are a mere ten days away from the conclusion of our 2009 Paleo Challenge. Where are YOU?  Did you give up two weeks ago?  Or maybe it was Robb’s birthday party that pushed you over the edge---and you were too hung over to scrape your way back to the top of the Paleo Cliff you had fallen from.  Don’t despair!  The whole point of this challenge was to motivate you to make the commitment to eat well, sleep well and kick ass in your work-outs. 

Feeding the family

Recently I have had a few clients ask me, “How can I get my kids to eat paleo?” Eating paleo can be a big change for kids who are used to a frosted cereal breakfast, PB&J lunch, and a cheesy pasta dinner, BUT - feeding your family paleo is more than possible, it can be fun, fast, and delicious! 

Need a Pull-up? Go Ask Roz! + Happy B-day Nick!

Are you struggling to get a pull-up? Are you sooooo close you can taste the metal of the pull up bar as it merely creates a pull up mustache instead of an actual chin-over-the-bar-pull-up? If you are struggling, I know someone who can help:
