What is CrossFit?

CrossFit workouts are comprised of constantly varied functional movements (like pushing, pulling, squatting, lifting, running) executed at high intensity. The workouts themselves are completely scalable, which means that a new participant and a CrossFit junkie can complete the same workout with changes in load and intensity. These workouts attack the main issues regular gym workouts are often accused of or cause: lack of time, motivation, functionality, and boredom.

"Randy" at CFFM from CrossFit FortMeade on Vimeo.

I took a 5 day break from CrossFit to fully rest my body.

In a nutshell, three ingredients are required for muscle growth: stimulus, nutrition, and rest. Exercise is a muscle stimulus that depletes your muscles energy stores causing microscopic muscle fibers to tear apart. Proper nutrition is needed to help replenish or supplement those stores of energy. The microscopic fiber damage will then recover and repair during rest causing muscle growth which completes the trifecta.

Goal Check: I was able to meet my goal of losing 5 lbs in 2 weeks. I now sit at a comfortable 149.8 #s. This is the first time I have been under 150#s in 3 years.
