Crossfit


Well I was at an Army school and these SOTA guys asked if anyone want to do some workout that they had a girl name for "Cindy" (they were doing it wrong). I went with them to see what it was. We did 5 pull ups, 10 push ups and 20 squats every minute on the minute for 20 minutes. Well that is what we were supposed to do. I made it threw 5 rounds and not in 5 minutes. I broke off and did a 2 mile run.
The thing is I could barely move the rest of the week because I was so sore. This made me very curious to where they learned this. They said something about it being free online at crossfit.com and talked about how the SF units did the work outs a lot.
That being said I am hooked. I have spent the last month reading articles, watching videos on technique and learning as much as I can about crossfit. They recommend a diet of palio (caveman diet) and Zone. So I bought the book enter the ZONE by Dr. Sears and have been reading it non stop.
One of the thing that Crossfit recommends is to keep a log of your work outs and how much you do so you can look back later and compare for improvement. Many people do this in the form of a blog. So I have this blog that I am not using and it will now be my log! 1. 2. 3. go!
