Who is CrossFit for?
CrossFit is for anyone with the determination and commitment to learning skills that will improve their fitness dramatically. All the workouts can be scaled to any fitness level. The fundemental movements do not change just reps, weight and time, so it is accessible to everybody!
The CrossFit Method
Practice and train all major lifts; deadlift, squats, clean and jerk, and snatch. Master the gymnastic movements; pull ups, dips, push ups, sit ups, handstands. Row, run, bike and swim. Now mix them up into as many different combinations as you can imagine and do them at high intensity for short durations. Avoid routine! Learn and play new sports. - Founder of CrossFit, Greg Glassman.
Nutrition
Eat meat and fish, vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starchy carbohydrate and no sugar - Greg Glassman, Founder of CrossFit. For further information look at the Zone Diet.
This weekend has been fantastic. We were so lucky with the weather and the amount of people that showed up.
On Friday for our CrossFit demo we put a challenge together of a Royal Marine Commando vs Scott Reed from ZT, Scott is the Strong Man winner 2007/2008. They competed for the fastest time doing Fran, 21-15-9 Thrusters and Pull ups, one of the most demanding CF benchmark workouts! They both did really well considering it was their first attempt, Scott came in the fastest so well done to him! There are photos on the ZTFightSkool website on Flickr.
On Saturday it was the Stand up tounament and more demos and people getting the chance to try and learn stuff.
Sunday was the MMA Tournament which was really exciting, a great ending to a really good weekend.
