Eat it!

WOD

Find your 1 rep max Clean, then...

100 Burpees

If you wanna be fancy, you can take a nod from CrossFit Hollister and do Medicine Ball Burpees. (just hold a med ball for the entire movement)

Went to a really great Zone lecture & Q&A with the man Dr. Barry Sears yesterday. It reinvigorated my mind to the true connection that food plays in our overall health. It's the most powerful drug we take. And we take it three times a day or more. Suffice to say that the Zone principle, plus some fish oil, have shown promise with conditions ranging from weight loss to cancer. After doing some more refreshing with the Zone, expect some more info coming soon.

It was also great to connect with some really great CrossFitters after at the dinner. A shout out to all the people I got to shake hands with: Dr. Barry Sears, Mike, Doug, Greg A., Kaitlin, Tony, Don, Mike, Alex, Beth, Nicole, K(Ch?)ristine, Katherine, Kate, Will, Lisa, and, of course, Greg Glassman.

Drink It Up!

Front Squat (105#M, 75#W)

Sit-Ups

Double Unders

Push-Ups

About 20 minutes before your workout, have a nice big ol' glass of water. The 20 minutes gives the water time to get into your system before you really start raising your body temperature. Of course, you'll want to follow your workout with plenty of hydration, and unless you're playing for a professional sports team, water (not Gatorade or some other sports drink) is actually the best way to replace your lost fluids. Sports drinks can be full of sugar, and for the relatively short workouts that we CrossFitters do, our electrolyte loss isn't sufficient to warrant it.

Enjoy today's workout...it's super fun!

Welcome Back!!

7 Burpees

70 Meter Sprint

7 Tuck Jumps

When we're on break, or vacation, we often encounter foods that we wouldn't eat at home. I feel it's okay to bend the rules a little bit (or maybe a lot :) when you're out of town. If you're putting in the effort here at home, when you're off, be off. These past 10 days, I only worked out three times. I drank a bit, and ate a bit more. I know that I'm going to be sore the next few days, and I'm actually looking forward to getting back in the wagon. Here's to hoping peeps are looking forward to some good workouts together again!

PS. CrossFit Thrive may have some fun announcements coming up in the near future, it's all good!

Run 3K in Shin-Deep water

Start at the Redondo Pier & Run to the first jetty/pipe/walkway thing & back, TWICE

Be careful about your feet, if you have wet slipper/shoes, wear 'em!

The added resistance of the water is good for the adductors of our legs. Not to mention eeryone looks better running on the beach!
