Great Job to Zach. For everyone else who will attempt this WOD on their own, it is important to push yourself even when there is no one there to motivate you. Our 6 o'clock class really relied on words of encouragement from other athletes when the WOD became tough. Just imagine me there next to you critiquing your form. Best of luck to everyone!

"There is no secret routine, there is no magical number of reps and sets. What there is, is confidence, belief, hard work on a consistent basis, and a desire to succeed. This is what I mean when I say accept your limits and when the time is right, you will push right through your limits time and time again, mentally and physically." - Steve Justa

Today was a very tough day for me. I buried a classmate, friend, a brother. The mass was held at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church located on the West Side of San Antonio. For those of you who are not familiar with San Antonio, the West Side is predominantly Hispanic and most of the population speak spanish. At the service the priest spoke in both English and Spanish. The priest was talking about using our "talentos" in this life to make this world a better place than how you found it. I will always remember this word, "talentos". I believe that the "talento" that God has gifted me with is one of athleticism. But not the kind that will make me lots of money, or make me a professional athlete. I mean the kind that every day people can look at and relate to. The kind of person that people look at and respectively ask their self, "If James can do it, than why can't I?" I hope to teach anyone who comes forth with questions about fitness and guide them to an overall healthier and happier life through fitness that works. I will use my "talento" to make one person better at a time, hopefully one day affecting the world.

RIP Michael Gres

"Most of the problems with the bodies and minds of the folks occupying the current culture involve an unwillingness to do anything hard, or anything that they’d rather not do. I applaud your resolve, and I welcome you to the community of people who have decided that EASY will no longer suffice." - Mark Rippetoe

Have a great weekend ladies! It was a tough week but you ladies rocked it!

Don't ever quit!

2009-09-15T19:34:00.001-07:00

Ladies,

I know at times some things just seem impossible. Sometimes you feel as if you can't go anymore, you get so fatigued and winded that your body is telling you to stop. This is where the mind comes in and takes over. Crossfit will build mental toughness if you allow it. Just think of studying. There have been plenty of nights where my body is telling me to just stop and go to sleep. But what about that patient that I will have in the future? Am I going to be able to better his/her quality of life if I just went to sleep and did not study the drug therapy that could possibly save them? I know each of you can relate to this. So keep pushing!

Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain. -Jim Morrison

Awesome job ladies! Here's a little humor from a conversation that a person had for Mark Rippetoe

"Newb: Got any good ab exercises?

Im a Rough Rider so...

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. ” - Theodore Roosevelt

Monday is here baby!

2009-08-30T12:40:00.000-07:00

Welcome back to Crossfit athletes! I am very excited to continue working on getting you to where you want to be. Some of you have come a long way over the summer and I expect the hard work to continue on throughout this fall semester.

For those of you who are trying this out for the first time, get to know your new classmates. It wont be long before you're pushing them and vice versa. The kind of bond that Crossfit builds between people is unexplainable. But in the end it is awesome! If you have any questions or concerns about anything please ask. I can't wait to see more personal testimonials.

Crossfit = Stronger body, Stronger mind, Stronger health and longevity.

Ladies,

I am so proud of each and every one of you for choosing to get healthier and sticking with it. Think back of when you ladies first started at the beginning of the summer. Nobody really knew what was to become of this journey. It's funny when you think of the mental aspect of Crossfit and what it has taught us. I remember the 1st day of class you guys were only concerned about finishing the workout. That quickly turned into worrying about not being too sore the next day because everyone still had to go to work. You ladies would try to talk to the 6 a.m. class to try and get a hint as to what the workout would be. The thing that makes me most proud is that you never let anything intimidate you enough to quit. Before I knew it, you ladies were hungry for more every class and the elements that we worked on became basic movements that you ladies were perfecting. I am so proud of you all! Please keep the hunger to become healthier. You now know what it takes to do real fitness!

You don’t have to get it perfect - you just have to get it going. Babies don’t walk the first time they try, but eventually they do. -Mark Victor Hansen

Just a reminder for anyone interested in some valuable nutrition information, we will be having a class tomorrow (Aug 1, 2009) at 9:00 a.m. sharp.

Laura and Anna,

Great job this afternoon with the heavy set of presses. Keep up the intense focus to become healthier.

Everyone else,

Be there on Monday! Do not let all the hard work slip away.

Fight Gone Bad (The 1st one)

2009-07-29T18:32:00.000-07:00

I am so proud you guys showing up even after hearing about this from the 6 a.m. class. Whenever you hear rumors of how nasty a workout is or how hard and sore their muscles are, I think today you would just grin and say to yourself, "I can't wait for mine". Keep it up ladies! Your lives are changing right in front of your very own eyes.

In doing your work in the great world, it is a safe plan to follow a rule I once heard on the football field: Don’t flinch, don’t fall; hit the line hard. -Theodore Roosevelt

Burp....ees!

2009-06-17T19:28:00.000-07:00

Burpee's can be a lot of fun! Music definitely helps, I will keep that in mind. Please notice that they are doing regular full extended burpees. Everything that I told you ladies still stands. You only have to get 1 cm off the ground, and we clap our hands to ensure that full extension at the top.

Turkish Get-ups

2009-06-16T08:29:00.000-07:00

I have posted 2 videos below on the proper way to perform a Turkish Get-up. Please note how the weight stays in the same location throughout the entire process. Balance is key in this exercise because it brings about stability.
