I am severely bored with my normal gym routine and I don't really feel like I am getting much from it.

My old neighbors are really into crossfit and there is a place here so I am trying to see if this is going to work for me.

I hate machines.....and I need to be pushed beyond my limits so I think this might work. :dance:

I don't want to lose weight really...just tone up.

Crossfit is all about busting your arse, high intensity exercises that make you want to puke.......you move too slow, it won't work. Try it a few times, you'll move on to something else......I'd bet G's new Matrix on it :shooter3:

Sorry JP, not completely true. Crossfit is designed to be progressive. If the trainer expects anyone to do the WOD without flaw first several times out then they just suck as a trainer.

Emm,

Crossfit is an excellent program, but definitely not easy! One of the biggest benefits is functional strength. If you are bored with a regular gym routine and want something different Crossift is the way to go! Or you could move to Kettlebells. If you want to know anything in particular about Crossfit hit me up.

I've been doing it for a few months with great results. It won't build huge muscles, but you'll get in incredible shape if you stick with it.

that is exactly what I want!! I don't want to look like a dang softball player...I want nice lean muscle tone.


Thanks guys!! I found out one of the local trainers actually works in my building so I wil probably be hitting him up for more info....and they have a free class this Saturday for beginners to go over all the info as well.

As long as I can work it out with my schedule I am down :bananapowerslide:

Don't kid yourself, burpee #5 was waiting.......for you to yack! They love to throw those burpees in at the end when you're on the edge, and they are nothing more than yack pumps IMO. Congrats on your warmup, I can't wait till you do a real day :spankme:

Started paleo as of last night.....so far so good. I am sure I will be miserable the next few days...but I know I will feel so much better for doing it! :bananapowerslide:

Getting started with my "official" workouts tomorrow....the first 3 are one on one to get us adjusted. :skull2:

Doing paleo strict for 30 days then trying to go over into Zone.

Killer workouts indeed! Their logo isn't (used to be) Pukie the Clown without reason.

I still have a shirt somewhere that says "smoke you like cheap crack." They used to carry some questionable in taste apparel but have gotten much more attention now, so it appears they have toned it down.

Congrats! You will thank yourself later!

I think so too!!!

Went for my first of three one on one sessions yesterday....still not a "real" workout...but showing us correct form...all their exercises...all that jazz. I found out my lower back is "weak" :skull2: and that squat therapy is the devil!!! I have also never lifted weights before so all of these jerks and stuff like that are scary to me...haha. I will get them eventually.

The afternoon class was going on as well and it made me feel better to see some old farts and some big girls in there. :biggthumpup:

We should be able to hit up our first big workout this Saturday. I am excited!! :bananapowerslide:

Joel.....have you done the paleo diet?
