Monday, April 13th

I have been on hiatus and I appoligize for neglecting the blog for those of you who like the WOD's posted. I am back on track and will do my best to keep the site current. I was talking with a client today about this diet and that diet. She seemed very confused and was getting advice from many sources. The bottom line is any type of caloric restrict will yeild results. Some approaches are better than others but forming a PLAN and being consistant with said PLAN is the key. It is so easy today to obtain diet advice. It is as easy as logging o9n to check your email and magically you are inidated with diet ads and supplements that promise quicjk results with little to no WORK. Some even promise weight loss while you sleep! Ha! Anyway, my point being, form a plan...with some common sence..and follow the PLAN! CONSISTANCY OVER TIME AND HARD WORK! That is the magic answer!

"Friday the 13th"


Here it is Friday and I was just looking at the blogspot realizing I have not posted since Monday. Where does the time go? I suppose I could blame the rainy, cold weather or say that I have been busy with a very important project....but...no. I have just been caught up in all the activity around TBC that I totally forgot about updating the blogspot! For those of you who endured Spring Break and overcame the cold to come out and do the WOD's this week I personally commend you for your perseverance and dedication! I will get the site up to date today...I promise!

Feb 27th "Change!"

Change is constant and it should always be for the better. That takes focus and a desire to get beyond your current state. Anybody that want to improve their current level of fitness can, it just takes heart!

Being Fit carries into other areas of your life. Awareness of yourself and elevation of your own potential comes from many different arenas. When I see someone who is striving for greater fitness, I know much more about their approach towards improvement in other areas. I also know that it will be more likely for them to excel greatly in those areas.

Developing A sense of Self Mastery truly must start with a foundation of your physical well being.

Today we did a Fight Gone Dab style WOD. Its is comprised of 5 exercises performed for 1 min each then a 1 min rest...3 rounds. One would not think 15 mins of work could be so hard!

Feb 25th " Shakey Legs"

At first glance it looks like a rugged cannon ball spouting a handle. It is called a kettlbell. It is an unsuspecting tool that is toning and shaping many people's bodies in ways they didn't think possible.
Kettlebells are popping up in gyms around the globe and have gained recent fame on "E Entertainment" and Men's Health Magazine from athletes and celebrities sharing their training "secrets", known to the rest of us, as Kettlebell Training.
"I would say the biggest benefit of kettlebell training is that you gain strength without gaining weight. This type of training allows you to get the most potential at your current body weight. You get strong and hard and ketlebells give you a powerful punch." says Chris Hartwell, Kettlebell Coach.
Despite their recent fame, many people may not know that kettlebells have a lengthy history. As far as researchers can determine, kettlebells were first seen in a Russian dictionary in 1704. The Russian army readied its troops for battle using the kettlebell and strongmen and weightlifters in Tsarist Russia were called a "girevik" or "a kettlebell man".
It has been said that the simple kettlebell is so powerful a tool it has the ability to support all modalities of training. It can be used for sport specific training and will produce world class results. In 1983 Voropayev, a man who studied "kettlebell men", tested two groups of subjects in 4 exercises: pullups, a standing broad jump, a 100m sprint, and a 1k run. The control group trained using a program that emphasized the above exercises; the experimental group only trained with kettlebells. The result - the kettlebell group scored better in every one of the exercises.
Kettlebells are used by people of all ages and for many different reasons.This February Lance Armstrong was featured in Men's Health magazine using kettlebells as a part of his training. Some train with kettlebells to gain lean muscle, while others to slim down and lose body fat, and some use kettlebell to train for a a specific sport or goal. For example, kettlebell training can be used to train for a triathlon, marathon, decrease back pain, or to become faster and stronger in a particular sport
"I think Kettlebell Training is a great class to add to your regular fitness routine. If you're already in a boot camp or CrossFit class and are looking to take things up a notch you should look at adding a kettlebell class." Chris Hartwell.

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, clean & jerk, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, 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.

Just a RANT.....

Why CrossFit? What is CrossFit?

Contemporary fitness doctrine is unable to help us reach our innate athletic potential. It has isolated us in a single direction - slow and steady exercise is "safe" and everything else is dangerous, high carb & low fat is ideal, women will “bulk up” if they lift weights, and the list goes on and on and on and on....

We have also been isolated from each other as individuals. We go to the gym and we plug into our headphones with the TV in front of our treadmill, and right back into self-isolation. We really want group interaction, an opportunity to get to know others, and be part of a team again, but we don’t know how to get it! The conventional gym does not, and will not provide it. Visit your mega-fitness center and see what we mean.

One by one, we see people are waking up, canceling their globo gym memberships, and are coming over to CrossFit.

CrossFit is a back-to-basics strength and conditioning program. It combines constant variation, intensity, and functional movements in Workouts-of-the-Day (WOD's) to produce dramatic changes in strength, stamina, and body shape. We don’t use isolation machines and the most abundant and important strength and conditioning tool at our facility is open space. We employ dumbbells, kettlebells, barbells, olympic lifting, pull up bars, joint mobility,tumbling, sandbags, tires, and anything else that will increase strength and freedom in your everyday movements.

TBC CrossFit is a community. When you join TBC CrossFit, you are enrolling in a complete program with a community of like-minded individuals who will challenge you and support you in your growth. It is much more than just a workout!
