Crossfit Syosset/ Wednesday, June 27th

Again, one of the biggest misconceptions about Crossfit is that Everyone gets hurt.  I’m sure you have heard this before when you ask your friends to join you at the Crossfit you go to.   “What!  Are you crazy, you’re going to get hurt, everyone gets hurt doing Crossfit!
This couldn’t be further from the truth, Not Everyone gets hurt doing Crossfit only about 80% of the people get hurt!
No, Doy!  C’mon man.
The only people who get hurt are people whom are coached by people who have no idea what the hell they are doing, People that have ego’s the size of Texas and just won’t let themselves do less than the weight on the board of less than the weight that the women next to them is doing.
In this game Ego will get you hurt!
And the last thing that will get you hurt besides bad coaching, and a large Ego is…… Drum Roll please!!!!
The Clock!
Unfortunately in Crossfit the Clock is the best thing ever and the worst thing ever!
The clock is great for those of us that know their limitations and use the clock to compete with either themselves or having a friendly competition with someone in the gym.
But the clock is deadly for those of us that think the clock is more important than form and technique.
Trying to finish the workout in record time while your back is rounded like a camel will get you in traction.

Crossfit Does not Get you Hurt, YOU Get YOU Hurt!
Just like YOU get YOU FAT, and YOU get YOU in GREAT SHAPE!
Just like YOU are responsible for Everything in YOUR Life and BLAMING everyone else will get YOU NO WHERE!
