Deads and Burpees with Mollie and Steph:
This WOD is from the 2008 CF Games and one we have done previously. This is day 2 of 3 featuring couplets. I personally like WOD’s that are couplets and triplets the most. Simple, efficient, and capable of a serious ass kicking. They don’t need to get cute or be a laundry list of movements. Those have their place but a well chosen couplet can be the most effective workout and leave you fearful of repeating them.
Today marks 1 week into our Nutrition Challenge and food logs are coming in. We will be reviewing them over the weekend so please turn them in tomorrow or email us if they aren’t on btwb.com. The most important point: You are 1 week in! Stick with it! “You can do it!” (cue the Rob Schneider voice)
Several of you have been sharing your Nutrition Challenge results, experiences, recipes, cravings and questions on Facebook and in the gym. Keep that up. Use the discussion tab the SnoRidge CrossFit group to share recipes, or just print one you want to share out or write them on the whiteboard in the box. One of the cool things we have heard are the MANY people who are already reporting body comp changes and weight loss after a week. Stick through the energy swings of switching to cleaner food and let your body and metabolism adjust.
Lorraine attended Todd Widman’s Nutrition Lecture at CrossFit Advantage last night. Here is what she had to say about it: “Todd Widman’s Nutrition talk was excellent. Highly recommend people making the trek to Imperial (CF) on the 25th if they can. Really charismatic speaker sharing very common sense information.”
Nutrition Discussion with CFHQ Trainer Todd Widman Upcoming Dates:
- 1/25 at Imperial CrossFit: 5:30-7:30pm Cost $10
- Practical discussion on Paleo/Zone nutrition and the benefits and common sense to changing the way you eat.
- Several of us in the box are planning to go to Imperial for this. Let us know if you are interested. It’s worth it!
