Who is CrossFit for?
"The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience".
CrossFit "delivers a fitness that is by design, broad, general and inclusive. Our specialty is not specialising. Combat, survival, many sports and life reward this kind of Fitness". (Coach Glassman, CrossFit Co-Founder)
World Class Fitness in 100 Words
"Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports".
Movie Screening: The 2009 Australasian CrossFit Games Regional Qualifier movie is screening at the Caloundra Cinemas at 5pm, Saturday the 13th of February. Cost is $10. Proceeds from this event will be used to pay for athletes from all three affiliates on the Sunshine Coast to enter the QLD sectional qualifier. So, for those of you that wanted to compete but were put off by the fee, you no longer have an excuse. Please bring your friends. Thanks to CrossFit Sunshine Coast for organising this great idea.
Goal Setting and Attendance Statistics: It’s time again to set yourself a monthly goal. Remember that your goal should be aimed at improving a weakness in a measurable manner. Also, the attendance statistics for January are up on the white board in the box. Please use this information to help with your training frequency and consistency.
QLD Sectional Qualifiers: The QLD Sectional Qualifiers for the CrossFit Games are being held on the 6-7th March at CrossFit Brisbane. This is going to be an awesome event and we encourage you to support this event whether it be through competing, spectating or volunteering to help.
Altitude Challenge: CrossFit Toowoomba is holding the Altitude Team Challenge on Saturday the 20th of February. This is a team event where teams will be allocated randomly on the day. Sounds like a great day so get on board before you miss out.
Rest, eat well and prepare for a great week of training.
A big thanks to Matt Swift (and family!) for taking the time out yesterday to conduct the skills development day at CrossFit Coolum Beach. I am sure I speak for everyone in attendance when I say that the day was extremely informative and educational.
Since retiring from NRL in the year 2000 I have managed to stay reasonably fit through a combination of lighter weights and middle distance running, but all the time struggling for that motivation that comes with full time training in a team environment.
Four months ago I was asked to try a new workout regime called Crossfit and how things have changed. For the first time since my retirement have I regained my drive to be the best athlete I can. Crossfit provides me with challenges by the way of different workouts everyday that will push you to the very edge of your physical ability. It is addictive for the reasons that each week that goes by you can see improvements in your results which keep you coming back for more. Because of the wide range of movements and exercises that confront you in each workout, Crossfit appeals to all people who are interested in improving their fitness levels and therefore their lifestyle.
Through the watchful eyes of fantastic trainers I must say that I look forward to pushing myself that little further each day. So to close, if you are prepared to commit yourself to this program I will guarantee you myself it will bring you physical and mental fitness beyond comprehension.
