Angels were singing: Catching air in double unders
Tuesday, Jul 12, 2011 2:21 pm
Three years, three months and 14 days after starting CrossFit, I finally got double unders last night.
I've described it to a few friends in this way:
It was like a scene from a movie where everything goes into slow motion, the clouds part and the bright sunbeam…

A tale of 2 shoes, and mingling at Maverick-- burpee style!
Monday, Jun 27, 2011 8:00 pm
So many days have passed... so many great workouts in the books.Let me point out two in particular, tied together with an odd theme: shoes. And tied together because of what I'll call notable results. If I were two pick two workouts the past month that should go up on…
Shining moment for a coach: When your athletes challenge themselves, unprompted

First let me gush like a proud momma of her children.
I've been coaching a group of ladies twice a week in a class we call LBN (Look Better Naked.) From what I gather, they come from varied fitness backgrounds, or no recent fitness exposure. So we started from…

Well, I'm back from quite an excursion to the 2011 Reebok CrossFit Regional Games in Jacksonville. It's taken me a week to write some thoughts and observations on it because I've been down with bronchitis ever since.
So as not to dwell on the pure misery that comes with…

Sometimes there's a greater reason to miss a workout
Friday, May 13, 2011 12:08 pm
Sometimes you walk into a situation not having a clue what you'll get out of it.
Such was the case last Saturday, May 7, when I participated in the Habitat for Humanity Women Build day with 50 other women.
We put shingles on the roof. We did the…

"They look so innocent!"
Thursday, May 12, 2011 9:27 am
Too long has passed between posts... bad because there have been several enlightening workouts and fitness and nutrition tidbits to share, and perhaps good because I've been so busy, both with my own training and as a trainer.
In just the two weeks since I started training others, I've…

Fitness proof lies in absence of sickness; and finding solace in Rx 90/10
Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 8:18 pm
One of the basic teachings of CrossFit is what I'll call "the arch of health."As you can see at right, Sickness is on the left baseline. At the apex of the arch is Wellness. And the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is Fitness.To quote from the…

What an amazing weekend at the CrossFit Level 1 certification course. Where should I start?
How about with today, the day after a weekend of intense learning, drills, networking and working out-- CrossFit style.
I was off work this Monday and woke up naturally, but extremely sore and drained--…

Tricep torture, when is scaling too much, and a milestone at 26.2 Crossfit
Saturday, Apr 09, 2011 5:58 am
Thursday and Friday workouts at 26.2 Crossfit were fun. And yes, I mean fun in that altered definition of the word that involves grunting, sweating and muscle failure... but a smile and a sense of accomplishment in the end.
Before I get into the specifics of the fun, I have…
