Hey, I’m interested in people’s reasons for doing Crossfit, to help stay motivated. Anyone feel like sharing?
Here’s a couple of motivational reasons that I thought of yesterday:
Reasons for doing Crossfit:
1. Because you’re not going to forge elite fitness sitting at home on the couch.
2. (If you’re on the intro offer) – because you’ve got to make sure you get your $20 worth 😉
3. To ensure that in the 2012 apocalypse if it comes down to me or the other guy… it’s going to be me.

Posted at 14:39h, 07 OctoberI was on my way to the lolly shop around the corner but got lost and ended up at Crossfit and stupidly agreed to apaleo diet… (thought it had something to do with fossils)
But seriously – summer is coming and I a bangin’ bikini body 😉

Posted at 14:52h, 07 OctoberYou’ve just motivated me not to get between you and your post-workout lentil spirulina tofu smoothie.
Motivational reasons for doing CrossFit as seen by Jim through the eyes of some of the members:
1. So you get to eat a Recovery bar guilt free. In fact, that’s motivation enough to come twice per day. (Jack)
2. Just to get the anticipation of the hurt over with and experience the “Silence of the Butterflies” for just a few hours until the next workout is posted. (Jess)
3. Just to see if that tweaky shoulder can deal with 100 Overhead squats anyway. (Arnie)
4. Just to wear IT geek-freak t-shirts that noone understands, reminding everyone else of how inadequate we are in the tec age and that The Rise of the Nerds is in full swing. (Christian) Paleo is HISTORY man!
5. To lift heavy stuff and plonk it down somewhere else (All the guys)
6. To lift heavy stuff and plonk it down somewhere else gently (The ladies – well, most of you)

Posted at 15:26h, 07 OctoberBecause I liked Paula and Megans Crossfit King long sleeve hot looking jacket. Didn’t think I should buy one without actually attending a few classes – and lovin it…and hey the $20 deal fantastic

Posted at 16:32h, 07 Octoberhahaha – here’s another few:
* For the smell of eliteness
* to make your hands look like you do more for a living than tapping a keyboard
* Because when the UFOs land it’s going to be too late to hit the gym…

Posted at 17:35h, 07 OctoberIt’s so nice and relaxing. Gets me out of the house. Mostly plays nice with my leg, with substitutions anyway. Makes me feel good about myself. Great supportive environment with fun people.

Posted at 18:29h, 07 OctoberCause it’s the only public place where you can climb a rope, hold a plank, throw a wall ball, do a Turkish getup, skip double unders, swing a kettle bell around, jump on and off a box for 20 minutes, chalk up your hands and play around on roman rings without feeling like a total tosser! Oh, and because people notice when your guns are getting bigger! Best. Training. Regime. Ever.
