This is the title of an inspiring book by Laura Clark. Laura, a single mom in her late 30s (at the beginning of the book), living in the Colorado Springs area, started by hiking or climbing all 58 of Colorado’s “Fourteeners” (peaks with an elevation over 14,000 feet). She did all of these solo. I had thought there were 53 of them, it turns out there are 53 “official” and 5 “unofficial, as described here. The … [Read more...]

I was the fat kid in primary school

by

Just sharing a massive moment in my life, that sounds small but wow it meant so much to me! I was the fat kid in primary school, heavily bullied and no friends. We’d do running laps around the oval and there I was far behind at back, walking on my own. Feeling ashamed and slow. I’ve been taking CrossFit VERY seriously, I’m one of the top performers in the gym and on a recent WOD, we had to 5 rounds of: 400m run 20 C2B 10 deadlifts I was actually … [Read more...]

Narrow metcon 7’s/wider feet

by

I’ve had every version of the metcons since the 1’s and have loved them. I’ve had no bulls and nanos too, just to try them and still stick with Nike. The 7’s I’ve hated. They are so narrow in the mid foot and after nearly 6 months still don’t seem to be stretching. I sent them back to Nike bc I thought they may have been defective, but nope. So for anyone else who has wider feet, have you experienced this and was there anything that helped … [Read more...]

Do most coaches find members annoying? What makes for a fun/worthwhile member attitude vs annoying?

by

A coach just confided in me that he doesn’t provide more tactical coaching because many members are annoying to deal with and this isn’t his full time job. Understandable, but I was a little taken a back. Is this a commonly held grievance for coaches? What tips would you offer on how to not be annoying to your coach, so you can get more tactical coaching? submitted by /u/newbeginingshey [link] [comments] SOURCE: CrossFit on … [Read more...]

CrossFit football total

by

How would you ‘tackle’ it? Power clean - 1-1-1 Back squat - 1-1-1 Bench press - 1-1-1 Deadlift - 1-1-1 My numbers right now are 255 pc, 375 squat, 245 bench, 465 deadlift. Bench is the weakness for me, but I can always hit that 245.

please recommend a remote coach for a recreational crossfitter joining a powerlifting meet

by

Someone challenged me to join a powerlifting meet in December and I really want to join. But I want to do well, and am looking for an online coach to help me program and support my way towards the end of the year. Ideally someone that understands CrossFit (and can keep training fun), and maybe not a typical powerlifter coach - although I'm open for either! Cost is not an issue, doesn't need to be cheap. I'm fine with paying hundreds … [Read more...]
