Find What You Love To Do, and DO IT!

I believe that God gives each and every one of us a talent, or a gift. It is up to us to find out what that is and use it to the best of our ability! I have always felt helping others is one of mine, and Crossfit is the outlet in which I can do that. Getting people fit and realizing what they are capable of is one of my greatest passions. Reach for whatever goal you wish to achieve, and I will help you get there! By the way, in case you didnt know...this kid is amazing!

Reach For The Sky!



Be PERSISTENT!! Through the course of my twenty eight years on this earth, I have learned that more and more every year. Over the years I have had many achievable goals, and started realizing every year that I wasn't accomplishing them. Why in the world have I not done this, or done that?! Those days are long gone!

When I started crossfit around three years ago I was thirty five pounds over weight, 20 percent body fat, and totally unhappy with the way I looked and felt. I decided I needed a change. My good friends and great coaches at Crossfit Central told me about this great fitness program called "Crossfit." I tried a few workouts, and from that moment on I was HOOKED! Crossfit has made me want to reach for the stars! I am now at my ideal weight, and 8.5 percent body fat. Forget about all that, I feel amazing!!

Like I've said before, when I started I couldnt do three consecutive pull ups, and now I'm banging out 30 at a time. I have become better, faster, and stronger than I ever thought possible! The one main reason...PERSISTENCE! Crossfit challenges you to do the impossible, and realize what you are capable of mentally, physically, and every other aspect of your life.Moreover it has made me persistent in every other goal I set for myself, financially,spiritually,professionally etc. So what I'm trying to say...Go out and get it! Whatever that is in your life. Get it! In Gods Speed.

Foundation...

Since I started crossfit I found out immediatley that nutrition is the key to success. It is not only essential when trying to meet your fitness goals, but also life long goals! I do crossfit to not only increase work capacity, but to live a long functional life. In order for me to achieve all of my goals, fitness and life, I have to know what I'm putting in my body and it's affect. If you are serious about your goals, and about a healthy life start making changes TODAY! Revolution...

Fight Resistance!

I just started reading Think and Grow Rich today...WOW!!! I have failed many times in my life, but like this book talks about I am using those experiences and I know I will succeed! I have set my mind to many goals this year, and years to come. I now know what I am capable of, and will let nothing stop me from achieving everything my heart desires.
Just a quick little something from the book: Did you know Marconi's "friend" had him check out at a psychopathic hospital, because he told him, "I can send messages through the air without any wires, or other direct physical means of communication." Think about all the people who have achieved greatness, and all the people who said they were crazy for thinking the way they did! Set goals in all areas of your life, and take the steps to get there. NO MATTER WHAT!IMG_0299.JPG

Work on Weakness!

Okay. These men may not be "Crossfit," but their feats of strength in this olympic lift are unbelievable!! Snatch is one of my weaker lifts, but it is going to become one of my strengths! The thing I love most about crossfit, is no matter how good you get, you always realize there is something you need to work on. Through my few years of training crossfit, I am constantly finding what is holding me back from being the best crossfiter I can be. It started with my endurance, that became better, then my over head squat, and that also became much better. Now SNATCH!! My goal is to do a full squat snatch of 215 lbs. by March 1st. I will constantly work on my weaknesses. What is your weakness? Find out, and conquer it!!
