Thank you all again for the great comments about CrossFit and intimidation-I was talking to someone that works next to CrossFit Cape Cod today and she said-"How do you get accepted to that school? There must be some sort of selection process, everyone over there is so fit!" My reply was "That is our goal-they didn't start out so fit, we actually like helping the people who need it the most and we accept all levels."
As I think about it later I'm drawing the conclusion that we can't help but be intimidating-fine let's be so fit and exercise so intensely that we look like some kind of an 'academy for the extremely fit.' If that lady wanted to be fit herself she should march right over and sign up -weather she's scared or not- wanting to be just as fit as the people she sees at CrossFit Cape Cod. Obviously whatever we are doing we are doing something right! Intimidated or not that is an excuse-NOT a reason to deprive yourself of being strong and capable.

We all want to get better. Here is how.
"I want pull ups sooo bad!" I hear it all the time. It is a good thing, that people want to get better at CrossFit and become stronger fitter and more capable. It can be frustrating however if you are missing any of the components that will contribute to the skill you wish to acquire. The following is from the earliest Crossfit Journals by the founder of CrossFit Greg Glassman. Essentially this is referred to as what is called "The CrossFit method."-the same method that if followed will allow you to achieve the fitness goals you set. I am going to interject some things as we go-ready?!

First here is a simple pyramid graphic that shows the basic concept. Every good building needs a foundation and so does every good athlete. A poorly constructed foundation will result in collapse if the integrity of the structure is tested. So lets look at all the levels.

What is the CrossFit method?


The CrossFit method is to establish a hierarchy of effort and concern that builds as follows:


1.Diet - lays the molecular foundations for fitness and health.

You become what you feed yourself with. Healthy foods=healthy you. Good nutrition=good performance. This is the basis for everything-the notion that you can eat whatever you want and just exercise it off is totally false. Notice that diet effects you on a molecular level. What materials are you building with? You can't get away from the fact that your health energy, and abilities are limited by how well you fuel yourself.  You want your pull ups sooo bad? This is the first place to look. 
2.Metabolic Conditioning - builds capacity in each of three metabolic pathways, beginning with aerobic, then lactic acid, and then phosphocreatine pathways. 

I am going to take some liberty here and just focus on one aspect of met-con. How's your breathing? This is a big piece of what constitutes met-con. So you hate to run,row,practice double unders etc. Sorry but this is step 2. You get your nutrition in order and then build the lungs to be able to complete a 20 minute WOD.


3.Gymnastics - establishes functional capacity for body control and range of motion.

"Finally! Exercise! But where are the weights?" You may say. Well being able to properly complete a full range of motion squat-is the first step before putting weight on your back. Doing a push up, dip, lunge, sit-up, air squat, pull-up, pistol, handstand push up, jump, muscle up, rope climb- with control and full range of motion -are required skills for developing well rounded fitness. How well do you do with these?


4.Weightlifting and throwing - develop ability to control external objects and produce power.
You've conquered all the other white belts and you are now ready for the next level. Weightlifting. Doing cool stuff like getting your own body weight or multiples of it in various lifts like squats, cleans, presses, deadlifts, & snatches. Or getting proficient with the kettlebell or medicine ball all are part of the fun in the weightlifting category.
But truthfully this is the pinnacle for most of us. The importance of having developed the 3 required levels underneath this one will plague you if you've tried to jump ahead. That would be like living on a 3rd story that has weak spots in the floor-sure up your nutrition and master the basic gymnastic movements-then worry about getting that quadruple body weight deadlift.
5.Sport - applies fitness in competitive atmosphere with more randomized movements and skill mastery.
This one makes perfect sense. On a larger level we have professional athletes-especially CrossFitters-who have to have exceptional ability in all four developmental levels of the pyramid to make it into the arena. This is a small percentage of the world's population. For the rest of us a practical way to look at it is that the workout of the day is our sport. Hopefully I don't need to explain to you that other members of CrossFit Cape Cod are not your opponent. We get motivation from each other-sure-but no one 'looses.' That said how you play the game is a lot more important than the numbers you put up. I'm going to yell this one so that everyone hears it, beacuse its important- THE WEIGHT MEANS NOTHING IF YOU ARE NOT DOING IT RIGHT!!! You are just going to hurt yourself. Also, your time is nowhere near as important as correct movement and full range of motion.* Of course, have fun and enjoy the process. Figure out-likely with the help of a coach-where you are and work at your full relative intensity,based on your current levels and goals. Take care of the basics and enjoy the success that comes from having a solid foundation. Follow the CrossFit Method and be patient, you won't have to wait long to achieve a fit capable athletic you. And the final word from Coach Glassman-
 
"We don’t deliberately order these components but nature will. If you have a deficiency at any level of “the pyramid” the components above will suffer."
 
From The Free CrossFit Journal Article FOUNDATIONS
 
*Only WODs and lifts that are witnessed by 2 members or 1 trainer and deemed acceptable are going to make it on the records board. DO NOT write yourself on the records board.

The 31 Day Good Carb, Bad Carb, Nutrition Challenge.

By way of review the way the challenge works is that for the entire month of may you do your absolute best to replace 'bad carbs,' the high glycemic stuff like sugar, bread, pasta, and  similar things with 'good carbs,' veggies, veggies, veggies and 2 servings of fruit per day. Try not to overthink it and get hung up on the footnotes and clauses and variations to each statute. A serving of fruit is a serving of fruit-1 apple, 1 Orange, one bananna-or that amount of fruit like pineapple blueberries, watermelon etc.
The big difference between this and the paleo challenge is that I think this will actually work better! Time will tell, but it is not very hard for paleo to turn into lots of paleo fudge, apple crisp, wine and 12 servings of fruit a day. Yes all of these foods have thier place-but large amounts everyday will not impact performance or weightloss with the desired goals. True it's more nutritious than fast food and probably won't make you fat-but hey we are crossfitters-good enough-just isn't! On the 31 day challenge-alcohol is a no go. It's only 1 month. If you have your usual bacon and there is a little sugar burried in the ingredients that won't cost you your point for the day. If you have a spoon of maple syrup or honey in your tea or coffee-fine. We are more concerned with the larger amounts of carbs from a non nutritive source-even smaller amounts of which will cost you your point for the day-i.e. candy,mints, a taste of dessert,chips,crackers, etc.
Please if you have questions during the 30 remaining days use the comments section to ask questions and the community can feel free to chime in-I will do my best to keep up with looking in and providing feedback. Let The Fun Begin!
