Stretching is Mandatory
Posted in CrossFit Workouts on July 29, 2009 by Fit 605 Inc
Stretching his low back...right Chris?:-)
Stretching for me is one of those things that I know is so good for me, and I love doing it, I feel great after doing it, so why don’t I do it everyday?
The key to flexibility is consistency. Stretching everyday for at least 10 minutes is far better than stretching 70 minutes once a week. Stretching is also a long-term commitment and must be continued indefinitely to maintain and/or increase flexibility.
To educate yourself more about stretching and flexibility: READ
And if you don’t have the journal you wont be able to read this article. So get the Journal
In August we are incorpating a stretching/cool down component to the end of every WOD. And look for more CrossFlexx classes.

Shoes help make the Runner in You

Three shoes. Which is the best to run in?
Last weekend was a very BIG eye opener for me. Liza, Annie and I attended the CrossFit Running and Endurance Certification. And WOW it was Amazing! Anyone who runs or even anyone who CrossFit’s this is a very educational cert about how to run and train with endurance.
One of the topics I got a lot out of was learning about the correct shoes to wear. One of the reasons why a lot of runners are injured is because of the “running” shoe’s they wear.
Keys to wearing a proper running shoe:
-Flat, flat, flat: The more heel support you have the more you “heel strike”
-Light: The lighter the shoe, the lighter you are which helps with creating less force
-Know if you have a wider or more narrow foot.
