The first step to looking good naked…
February 8, 2011
We are so proud and excited to offer a daily Mobility WOD. It is just another step in the progression and growth of Albany CrossFit. For those of you that remember when we first opened we didn't even put up the next day's WOD. Now, we post the warm-up, WOD, After Party, and a Mobility WOD.
We want to provide to you, our athletes, the best possible product available. Everyday's programming gets thought out and approved by many coaches. The warm-up is directly related to the WOD and the After Party is often based on movements you will be seeing later in the week. Nothing is overlooked.
We have also decided to post just the WOD on the our page (at least for now). Scaling options will be listed on the whiteboard, and of course all of our amazing coaches are there to help you scale each WOD to the best of your ability. So, no, you are not required to do 135lb. thrusters!
Is to actually feel good about yourself.
Duh.
We can train 5 days a week, have a sub 2 “Fran” time, lift 3 billion pounds (because that can be possible, kind of), be 100% strict Paleo, and have a sweet rockin’ bod, but… without the support from yourself, your bod aint so great. In fact, this mindset has the potential to stunt your growth as an athlete, not to mention destroy the confidence which makes us all feel capable of doing something, anything…
Wait a minute, the potential? I mean it will.
We need this confidence. The greatest consequence of what we do here (besides living longer and being harder to kill) is the emotional and physical strength it provides, which, in turn, gives us confidence in our capabilities (and, of course, our hot bods). This confidence, without a doubt, pours into our everyday non-CrossFit lives, making everything seem just a little bit… better.
Right?
OK, maybe I’m going off the deep end a bit (you all know I’m a fanatic…). Or, maybe it’s the post-WOD endorphins, or the fact that I live with a wonderfully offensive mobility man. All possibilities.
However, what I know is this:
We all want to be somewhere farther than where we are now, someplace stronger, fitter, better. Maybe we just want to look good naked. Nevertheless, the only way we’re going to get there is to know we are able to.
Mark you calendars – February 25th is our next Friday Night Fights!
