Early Birds & Morning Class
Nice work on the Tabata...I did do it a little different this morning having y'all do a running total. So the total reps and calories are on the glass. Just remember, max intensity is what we are shooting for..

Foam Rolling Class
Thanks to all who came out to the box this morning for the FOAM ROLLING CLASS. It was very informative. Big thanks to Miguel Atala, who is a certified Arrosti Therapist in Boerne, for coming out and helping us get through the pain. His office is with Dr. Vela off of main just past the Walgreens, 1201 S. Main St. #114. Miguel provided pamphlets with information and foam rollers to practice on. He even donated two foam rollers to the box.
Brent and I both believe this will benefit the Hill Country CrossFit Athletes. I know I felt better AFTERWARDS!! and I believe Miguel when he says it takes a few weeks to get past the hurt.

Announcement!
Mark your calenders for this Saturday Feb 26, @ 9:30. The Arrosti Theropist is coming to the box. He will bring information regarding the type of treatments that he performs. He will also bring some foam rollers and show us how to use these rollers to stretch and work out soreness. Brent and I both feel this is a great opportunity for the members of the box. We all know about being sore, but we all don't know how to handle it. So if you have a foam roll, bring it and lets get ready to ROLL!.
Monday 2-21-11
Please remember that there will not be a 6 or 7 am class tomorrow(Feb 22). I will be at the Police Academy for training. I will be back in time for the evening classes. Thanks, Ken.

Saturday Morning
Today is the Benchmark workout called "HELEN"
3 (RFT)rounds for time
400m run
21 kettle bell swings RX(M53, W35)
12 pull ups
Y'all did a great job this morning. Thanks for your patience while I figured out how to get everyone going. Some of you have done this WOD before. All who had done it before improved either in time or increase in weight used. I sometimes hear athletes not want to try and go up on their weight because their time will slow down. That is true, but the goal is to try and RX the exercise. So yes at first it may slow your time down, but that wont last long.

The End of the Challenge
Well today was the end of the 30 day Challenge. Brent and I were pleased to see twelve challengers. I could really feel the energy and excitement to weigh in and check the body fat index. Then came the WOD. Man y'all were getting it...It was very inspirational watching y'all put it all out there. The competition was fierce and no athlete gave up..
We had athletes lift weights that they could not lift 30 days ago. I mean "WOW", you had to see it to believe it. And you will see it because we have video and pictures. We had athletes loose pounds, loose body fat and pant sizes. It was interesting to see that some athletes did not loose a lot of weight, but there body fat went down. It just shows that the scale is not the best way to judge fitness at any level. Brent and I get a kick out of seeing our athletes do things they could not do before.
We use the word athletes because that's what crossfitters are, so that is what y'all are. The two top athletes today were Zach Stinson for the men and Megan Luevano for the ladies. So when you see them, let them know it. This ends our first Hill Country CrossFit Challenge.
There is no time to rest because the next challenge is around the corner..Did someone say 1000 burpees..

Saturday WOD
The Saturday WOD was a Benchmark WOD. This is probably the most famous and infamous WODs in the CrossFit arsenal.
"FRAN"
21-15-9
Thruster M 95lb, W 65lb
Pull ups
It does not sound like much, but don't they all. I have yet to not hear the "That's It" remark. If you doubt this workouts ability to totally drain you then maybe you should as around the box. As far as Saturday, y'all did a great job. To be able to get through the workout is an accomplishment, but to do it to scale, now that is something. Just remember as with any CrossFit workout, there is only one way to go and that is up...The first step is to take the challenge, from there you will not return to the average again..

End of the Challenge
Well it is almost that time. The end of the 30 day challenge will be this Sunday. We will start the WOD at 3:00 pm. After everyone has done the WOD, Brent and I will compare times and the analysis. We will come up with two top contenders of each. Then we will take a ballet vote from the members that participated. This will reveal the winners of the Challenge.
The point of the challenge was to give y'all a different perspective on how to eat better. I know that Donniece and I learned, eating organic in this day and age is an expensive, time consuming way to eat. No wonder most people don't eat this way. This style of eating is more difficult, but well worth the effort. So, if you can't eat this way all the time, you can at least try and eat this was some of the time.
Keep up the good work! I am looking forward to the next Challenge....
