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 climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, 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.—
Greg Glassman, founder of CrossFit "What is Fitness?"

*** Granted it's only a PR because I haven't done a Heavy 5RM...but still :-)

***#I was pretty sore today...whether it be from the modified Angie the other night, or Jiu Jitsu last night...My shoulders and upper back were sore/tight. Form felt good on the Deadlifts. Back didn't round. My only concern at this point would be the downward motion. I want to have this re-looked at and critiqued. Will video soon and send to Byers.
