The Go Green Tip of the Day
Pack a Waste-Free Lunch
Moms, business men, coaches, the list goes on and on about who pack daily lunches. Be conscience of eliminating plastic bags, plastic utensils, disposable containers, paper napkins, and those brown paper bags. Instead try a reusable lunchbox, eco-friendly water bottles, cloth napkins and silverware. 
Save money, Save waste.
Save CrossFit for the future.

others is not a lack of strength, 
not a lack of knowledge, 
but rather in a lack of will."

The Go Green Tip of the Day
Workout Equipment Bags
Buy duffel bags and backpacks made from recycled materials over those made from petroleum-derived virgin polyester or PVC, which is less recyclable. If everyone who participated in activities did this, more than 180,000 pounds of plastic could be diverted from the trash.

World Class Fitness in 100 Words

Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to 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 climbs, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, , flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or Six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports . - - Coach Greg Glassman, Crossfit Founder.
