Don’t Feel Like It?

Posted by Andy Petranek : Wednesday, Mar 03, 2010

I was reading Seth Godin's blog the other day (which I read regularly for his take on life, business and the world we live in), and he had written a post entitled "I don't feel like it." Though he's not giving fitness/workout advice, you could literally slip "CrossFit" into his sentences and it would all make perfect sense.

The parallels between training at CFLA and life are abundantly clear... this is a great place to practice doing those things that are hard, that you don't really feel like doing and creating a habit of "doing it anyway..." Thoughts?

Doing It

Posted by Becca Borawski : Tuesday, Mar 02, 2010

Doing CrossFit is the real thing. It frees the mind if you just let it and you just do it. CrossFit is pure and simple in that it is simply about getting things from point A to point B. It is about having a list of tasks and doing the tasks. You have the option to leave all the strings and cobwebs of life that we attach to the things we do, and just perform the act and be the movements. Because in the end, what do you have to ask except, did you do it? Or did you not? You can make up a story about why you did or did not do it. You can have a list of reasons that you did or did not do it. But really, all the remains is what you did. Did you do more than last time? Did you do less? Did show up to do it in the first place? It doesn't matter who did better or who did worse. It doesn't matter what you think about what you did. You just did it, now it's done, and you can come back and do more.

In Their Own Words...
My daughter has been going to CFLAKids for nearly two months and she loves it. I love it for her. She is, in general, very athletic and coming here fosters her desire to be competitive, which is important to me. Girls should be able to let this side thrive, if they want it.. The classes make her stronger and faster and more able to enjoy the other sports she's involved in. - Danette R.
