Joshie and Don spot Andre on a HSPU. Gettin’ work done.

When you are doing what you know you are meant to do, there’s no need to struggle.
Instead of difficult or challenging or frustrating, there is simply doing.
When you are merely interested, or when you’re following someone else’s dream, anything can distract you.
Yet when you’re pursuing your very own passion, nothing has the power to stop you.
There is a reason why some things feel right and other things don’t.
Pay attention to those feelings, for they tell you who you truly are. (James “OPT” Fitzgerald)

Has CrossFit become a passion for you? Are you in pursuit of getting in the best shape of your life?  I would like to hear about it.

    The power of Crossfit is the people. The encouragement and camaraderie is beyond any fitness regimen anyone could possibly do on their own. I am proof as I have no question that I am in the best shape of my life at 42, stronger, fitter and leaner. I saw this great quote “pain is weakness leaving the body€. I think that sums it up. Thanks OCC

    I totally agree. For me, Crossfit isn’t just about being in shape and looking good (although that’s definitely part of it). I feel empowered here, not only by what I’m becoming strong enough to accomplish, but by what I see everyone else accomplishing too. All of you guys are inspiring. That’s the best motivation.

    OCC is a second home and family for me! Not only do I enjoy and look forward to each days challenging WOD but it’s the people that really make the box “home” for me!

    On top of being in the most superior shape of my life I have made some amazing friends here.

    Thank you not only to JMF for making this a wonderful place to breed success but thanks to all of the members for the encouragement, support and friendship!

    Hug it out!!!!!

    How do I know that I am passionate about CrossFit? I am going on vacation today at 3:30 and while I am absolutely excited for my trip part of me is sad that I will not see all you for 5 days. I will not get to push myself with today’s WOD and I will miss seeing and cheering on my fellow cross fitters as they challenge and push themselves to be in the best shapes of their lives. Work outs used to be work. Now they are play! They are excitment! They are opportunities! I will miss you all!!!
