Thank you for allowing me to train with you this summer. Being a
football player at a Division 1 level I obviously want the best
workout available to increase my performance. I have been doing
conventional weightlifting for since I can remember and recently have
not felt like it was increasing my performance as it should. Coming to
Crossfit has been amazing. The high intensity workouts have made me
more mentally tough, physically stronger, and able to endure more.
Thank you for bringing me in, I believe in Crossfit all the way.

My daughter and I started Crossfit 1 month ago, I already feel an increased sense of strength. I've always been physically active, growing up as a competitive gymnast and lately an avid runner. Tim's ability to push me through the mental and physical boundaries of each and every Crossfit class is incredible. I have also been participating in the Kettlebell program and Tim has made it constantly challenging, exhausting and exhilarating all at the same time. I love the fact that he is always on the lookout for proper form and is quick to correct you if need be. He continues to push us to work hard, use good form, and never forgetting to tell us that we are doing a good job. Thanks for the motivation, support and the extremely challenging workouts.

Thanksgiving, a quaint colonial holiday... I guess when in rome.... I am thankful I know the crazy mob at FCF, sometimes.... My shoulders will be thankful tomorrow that they wont see a pull up bar or a Oly bar until monday. I am thankful I will see a real bar between now and monday. On that note. Read below for info from the BBC News site.
Exercising may get rid of a hangover, but working-out cannot undo the damage that heavy drinking may cause, the government says.
A survey for the Department of Health found almost one in five people in England admitted to exercising to "make up" for a heavy bout of drinking.(F Note, one in five use exercise to make up for binge drinking not just 1 in 5 binge drink, so more binge drinkers lie in a pool of nastiness waiting for the body to recover from a big night out.)
The poll also found that one in five people drink more than double the NHS recommended amounts per day.
For a woman this is two small glasses of wine, and one more for a man.
Some people swear by "sweating out" a hangover and carrying out strenuous exercise to help the body overcome the effects of heavy drinking.
But the government's Know Your Limits campaign is trying to impress upon people that while exercising may make you feel better, it does not undo the damage caused by serious alcohol consumption.
While studies are increasingly showing that alcohol - even large quantities - may be good for the heart, organs such as the liver can suffer grave harm - with alcohol being blamed, for instance, for a large rise in cases of cirrhosis.
It has also been linked to a significant increase in the risk of having a stroke.
