For those who are newer to CF, keep in mind that Crossfit is a process fit for elite athletes to Grandma and each individual has their own threshold in skill and intensity. Measurable progress is there for all to capture, but the catch is, to get it we have to work at our individual thresholds, continuously pushing them up. By definition, this takes 100% effort every time Less effort stifles forward progress, causes us to get discouraged and frustrated and makes for cranky coaches. I have found that less than 3 X per week doesn't work, 3 X per week gets results and greater than 3 gets better and better - [but of course this is not for everyone]. IF you are a two-fer, try to make it 3 - you will like what you get in return. Apologies for the lecture.

The throwdown is only 2 months away, and if anyone who has committed themselves to that isn't Xfitting at least 4 days a week, you're gonna get a true dose of true fitness when the day comes to compete. Seriously guys this event is gonna be sick, and if you don't train for it, you're gonna get blown out. Again Justin, thank you for blogging this. I love that it's gettin a little colder and that I can focus more on fitness than Beach Vball. Stay strong Lysanne. Matty Put me down for 4 this week.
