Occasionally however...one of you get..."stuck".

A few of you Norcal CrossFitters gave my last Crock Pot recipe a shot--so I am going throw another one out there! It is finally starting to feel like fall in Chico--and this recipe just suits the chilly weather.

No, this is not a special brand of Columbian “cocaina”. This is the metaphorical slap to the head life deals us when needed. As a trainer, I am called upon to deal out “The Shaman’s Blow”.
