What's for dinner?

In order to maximize your results, you need to also take your diet seriously. Some people are fanatical about their workouts, but neglect what they eat. This will never allow you to maximize your results or performance. Others are almost religious about what and when they eat. This will undoubtedly get you results, but it may be hard to live with over the long haul. Rare are the individuals that can maintain a strict diet for a lifetime. This will lead to the infamous "falling off of the wagon."Our advice is to follow a healthy diet that enables you to optimize not only your workouts, but have the energy to lead a happy healthy life. Unless you are one of the rare individuals with a hyper sense of discipline (or if you are training for an event) we also advise you to set a diet that you can live with for the rest of your life.

Here is a good starting point when setting your diets: http://www.crossfit.com/cf-info/start-diet.html

Remember, we don't look at our diets as a way to drop "that last 10lbs"! Your diet is merely fuel for the machine that is your body!

5-9-08 WOD

Okay, so our good friend BillRod from CF Iowa warned me about this one. I also should have known she'd be trouble when I found out she grew up with Lano.

Liz is the first person who has ever asked me why I don't take pictures of the 6:30am class. The reason I don't take pictures is because I know better than to pull a camera out at 6:00am in front of a group of women. They all ran for the hills when they saw it today....except one!

Great job on your first week ladies!
