CrossFitisms

Shine. No matter what anybody tries to do to you today.
Finding the Right Fit
Finding the right gym is like trying on sneakers. The key is really not to find the coolest gym, but the one that fits you right. 'Cause if it's not a good fit, then you need to move on and find the one that is.
Heading For Air
How many people in this life do you know who are waiting to be saved? Don't be one of them.

You can't settle for the crutch of external motivation. It won't be enough when things get really hard.
The Good Stuff
But to watch another human being struggle like that and keep fighting, even when the odds were against him and the clock was running out and what the heck does it matter anyhow, it's just a workout? If that doesn't move you . . . well, you're not the kind of person I want to want to sip the good stuff out of a heavy glass with.
Expectations
We have these expectations. They live in our heads, not in someone else's.
Choosing to Adjust
Stupid CrossFit
Stupid CrossFit. Making us miss a gritty gym with a bunch of other idiots like us and some coach who won't leave us the F alone. I hate you, CrossFit.
What If?
CrossFit and Bad Girls
I've said it before but it bears repeating: The barbell changes women. No properly coached CrossFit woman is immune to the lure -- the Siren call -- of the barbell.
The K Word
Competition motivates, but it should not undermine.
