GO DAVE GO CROSSFIT

What's this about?

Courage, Commitment, Strength, Discipline.



What do you think about a regular hardworking guy giving his all to get faster and stronger.

A guy who works his butt off during the day, but still makes time to train hard and eat smart.

A guy who is a great dad and a loving husband, a successful business owner, competing against those who have more time to train, and more time to recover.



If you don't know what Crossfit is, check this out http://www.crossfit.com/.

It is a mode of training that encompasses your entire body in cardio, strength and power movements. It is the most demanding type of training in that it challenges you physically and mentally. It humbles you every time by offering an unlimited opportunity to push yourself beyond what you thought yourself capable. It is GPP or general physical preparedness that can help you deal with real world situations. And it is a hell of a lot of fun.

When you get addicted to the sport, you soon become interested in comparing your progress against others. The crossfit.com site is a fabulous resource for information on how you stack up against others of similar height, weight, age, etc. Even better is going to your local affiliate and working out with a group of like minded people. It does not matter if they are better or worse then you at the particular workout, it is the camaraderie that is shared, the energy built by the group as they push themselves to finish the workout.
When it is all said and done, and you call out your times or what you have been able to accomplish on that day, it is with a sense of accomplishment that you can compare your effort against others at your affiliate who you've been chasing.

Which leads me to my posting this blog as a preamble to seeking some local support as I ramp up my training with the goal to be within the top 10 in the Western Canadian tryouts for the crossfit games, 2010.
