Quote for the week…

F.A.I.L.
First Attempt in Learning

Monday: I am hoping the weather forecast is not true and we do not wake up to ❄️ in the AM. However if we do, DT peeps get ready to burn some “brown fat!” We have two AMRAP’s on the schedule for today, first one consists of running, rowing and burpees followed by running, rowing and pull-ups! #energyburning #shivering #brownfat

Tuesday: (Conditioning Day) 4-Rounds (5-min each) of Power Cleans, Toes to Bar and Double Under’s. No worries we will get a little rest in between each round which means for 5-minutes it’s all out performances for everyone! […] Read more

What Makes You Happy?

Being Happy Isn’t That Hard!

I listened to a great podcast last week about chasing happiness (thanks Lisa for getting me on Ben Bergeron’s podcast). If you don’t have friends that send you podcasts, find some friends that do! But never forget about those old friends 🙂

Anyway, Ben is Katrin Davidsdottir’s coach. He talked about how after winning the Crossfit Games, Katrin walked off the podium, looked him in the eye and said “I’m not as happy as I thought I would be.” She was already thinking about winning the games next year. A perfect example of how once we achieve something, […] Read more

Do You Drink Enough Water?

Let’s think about it logically…

You can go without food for a few weeks.
However, we can only go without water for a few days.

But what do we focus on more? Diet or water??

The human body can only exist for 5-7 days without water, thus dehydration must be taken seriously. Just exactly what does dehydration mean? Medically, dehydration is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition in which the body contains an insufficient volume of water for normal functioning. To operate efficiently, most people say the body requires about eight large glasses of water per day, based on an estimate of fluid loss […] Read more

CPM Week of Workouts: April 24-28

Quote for the week…
Gratitude
starts a chain reaction to
Happiness

Monday: I hope you’re all enjoying the BUNS & GUNS, I know that I am! Angie is on the menu today. This workout has four of the most basic of moves for any workout: pull-ups, push-ups, squats and sit-ups. One way to fail miserably is to sprint as hard as you can, and exert 110% of your energy for the first set before rest. A steady pace wins the race:-)

Tuesday: Three-Element workout consisting of Running, Squat Snatch and Turkish Get-ups! Think better core stability and shoulder mobility:-) #Tuesdaytriplet

Wednesday: Two 10-Minute AMRAP’s filled with […] Read more

Let The Double Banging Begin!

How To Squeeze In Those Extra Workouts

First, let me get you up to speed on my performance diet. Things are going well.

I’ve definitely leaned out through my mid-section despite some Easter cheats over the weekend.
It was easier to get my pants up over my hips too so that’s good news.
Planning my meals was smooth the second week. It’s almost getting to be a habit.
I removed the rice from my diet and replaced with sweet potatoes. My joints feel better after the switch.
Pull-ups and muscle-ups felt better this week. Perhaps some weight loss contributed to that?

I’m looking at this as a […] Read more

Confidence is KING!

We’ve heard the term, “Cash is king!” in the financial world.

Well in the Health and FITness world… “Confidence is KING!”

Our lives are a direct reflection of the way we see ourselves and nothing more. Our relationships, bank account, waistline, happiness is all the result of our self identity (more info HERE)

I’ve seen this scenario over and over in the FITness world. Someone has TRULY COMMITTED to changing their life! They are going to #get2thegym, eat healthier, physcially transform and nothing is going to stop them.

The truth is everything will fail if you don’t have enough self confidence. And the truth about […] Read more
