OK… we’ve been talking about bad eating… and how training is going…. and how you feel like you need to jump on the ‘regular routine’ wagon again. If you havn’t already done so, it’s time for you to set yourself some goals before the end of the year. So I want you guys to write down in your little notebook what you want to achieve before year end. Wether it’s personal or at the gym. Feel free to share and post to comments.

Athletes have been raising funds all over Atlantic Canada – over $4000 so far! These athletes will then “compete” on Saturday September 26th in a CrossFit workout called “Fight Gone Bad” – originally created for UFC Champion BJ Penn.

If you are an athlete who wants to compete – please remember to register online (www.fgb4.org) and donate $20 (your team is “CrossFit Moncton”). We will be using this online registration list to create a schedule.

If you are around Fredericton area and want to watch, please stop by at 10am, at George Street Middle School (outside on Regent Street) and watch everyone else suffer through the workout. Donations will be welcomed at the event.




Fitness in a 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.
