    Check out today’s health section in the Greenville News.  There is an article about the Bod Pod in that section.  It is a pretty good article describing the Bod Pod and how some people are using it to track results.  It is similar to what we are doing in that the Bod Pod provides a tool to scientifically measure results in terms of changes in body composition over time.  Our next Bod Pod testing will be held on Saturday, January 23rd.

    Workout of the Day

    warmup

    Walking lunge and press 50 feet

    Situps 20

    Not Every Day
    Tuesday, December 15, 2009 | Posted by Becca

    Not every day can be a good day. Some days are just really bad days. Nothing goes right. You can’t lift the weight you’re supposed to lift. You’ve never run slower. Your foot hurts. You kick the chalk bucket over and your hand rips on the second pull up anyway. CrossFit is impossible and you’re pretty sure you’re a hopeless weakling.

    It would be a lie for any of us to say we don’t have those days. Almost five years into this journey, I definitely have days where I find myself presented with a particular exercise thinking, “I’m awful at this and I’m not ever getting any better.” But, really, THAT is the lie. We are getting better. We are getting stronger. Even on our worst days, we are putting in the work that will pay off in the end.

    What determines your success is not whether or not you have bad days, it is how you react to that bad day. Do you go home and never come back? Do you declare the whole affair a failure? Or do you get up the next day, put your socks and shoes on and go to the gym once again. You show up and show up and show up until there is no alternative except to BE a success.
    The previous was posted by Becca Borawski on the Crossfit LA website.  I thought it was well worth posting here.
