I fixed the issues with the schedules tab, it is now working properly again. All future appointments will be added into this tab.

I have restructured all program information into 3 tiers.

One is basically a modified FAQ (Start Here)

One goes into the various programs we offer (Personal Training and more)

And the third is a catch all for extra Non-essential nonsense(extra)

What do you think of this new structure?

Are there any other questions you think I should add to the Start Here section?

I know There isnt much information in these categories yet, but Im going to sleep.

Physical Confidence: The ability to recognize the (your)body's physical limitations and abilities, and operate within these abilities without fear of failure.

This is one of the intangibles of physical fitness training, yet one of the most important aspects that we, as athletes, could ever hope to garner. This confidence allows us to do well in our chosen sports, helps us through our daily physical challenges; and more importantly... the lack thereof hinders the everyday Joe and forces them into a life of physical distress.

One simple fact: our aging generations, generally, fear breaking a hip or otherwise simply lack the motor development to lift an object of any size over their head. You used to only see this in advanced age, but it has become more common in younger generations, even starting as young as 45. If you know someone who is starting to suffer from an obvious lack of physical confidence, offer to go walking with them, get them involved with a local swimming program, somehow get physical activity back into their lives. It will enrich both of your lives.

In younger generations, it is a faltering physical confidence that makes you take a look at a physical feat, such as a CrossFit workout, and say "that's crazy, I could never do that". I argue to say " You just don't know you can do it".

Recent Whiteboard

Today it storms, tomorrow we CrossFit.

Prepare for the mud.

Consider yourself warned

One of the fundamental requirements of all plyometric movement is the ability to maintain control in the concentric phase. The concentric phase in a squat is simply the bottom position of the movement (below parallel). Without balance in this phase, power is wasted in an attempt to over compensate for subtle movements and power is lost in the launch. We will experiment with this today.

Today's Workout:

10 rounds

- Static squat hold 25 seconds... to high jump (Bring yourself slowly into the concentric phase of the squat, and hold this position for 25 seconds. After 25 seconds, explode into a jump as high as you can)
- 1 minute rest


Note the loss of power as instability becomes prominent.

Yesterday's Whiteboard

Too little emphasis is placed on plyometric conditioning and the effect it has on jump development. A strong vertical/horizontal/plyo jump is an innate survival skill. And something we should practice frequently. This weeks trio of bodyweight workouts will assist in the development of the groups of muscle responsible for explosive jumping movements.

The power for this jump was generated from plyometric contraction and release from the first bench step.


Today's Workout

5 rounds for time.

75 toe jumps (Think of jump-roping with no rope) or single jump ropes
15 Tuck Jumps (Jump and pull your knees to your chest mid-jump)

Even Little Miller.
