Here is to ending 2010 well and entering 2011
Today's mental challenge:
Create a personal mantra. Envision who and what you want to be. Phrase everything in the positive. Say your mantra every morning when you wake up and before you go to bed each night. Say it with confidence and belief. To achieve your goals you must believe you can reach them. Write you mantra down and put it where you will see it often and it is a constant reminder of what you want to attain. If you want to be a great student you might say, "I am a great student."
Here is an example:
I am strong, resilient and a high achiever.
I am a positive influence on my friends and peers.
I can do anything I set my mind to.
I am fearless.
The better you focus on your mantra the more it becomes a part of you. This type of mental programming has been used for a long time and to great effect.

Merry Christmas
I hope you have a great Xmas filled with family and friends. Have fun playing today. Go play soccer, football, basketball or any other game you can come up with. Make sure you gt your family outside with you to get some exercise. Share with them the gift of fitness. Tray them a couple of things you have learned in class and then show them what you can do. Challenge someone to a little competition; pushups, burpees, handstand. Make it fun and maybe you can get your family members to do some WODs with you over the break.

End of the Semester
If you didn't make it to school today you missed out. Today was a heavy lifting day. We started out finding our max height box jump. The highest jump today was 40.5 inches hit by three people and there was still some jump left in a couple of guys. Then is was on to 1 rep maxes of Back Squats, Presses and Deadlifts. There were some fantastic efforts and we determined that a bunch of you have been holding back a bit but despite that there were some huge gains. Little Joe started the semester at 30 pounds on the Deadlift, today he pulled 125 a 400% increase.
School doesn't start back for us until March so that's 2.5 months for you to sit on the couch or stay active. It's decision time gentlemen. If you don't want to lose all of your hard won gains you NEED to keep up with the WODs. Equipment or not there are lots of things you can to to maintain your fitness. I will keep posting workouts but I need feedback from you about your performance results.
Keep your nutrition in minds as well. This is an excerpt from crossfitkids.com:...sugar is bad, protein is good and you need to eat some in every meal. Nuts and seeds are good fats. Eat them, don't avoid them. Pasta, white bread, and white rice are not that good for you, stuff that's red, yellow, green and found in the fruit and vegetable aisle is good for you. Eat a lot of it.
Look at your plate, make a fist, eat that much meat every meal; turn your hand over and fill it with nuts and seeds, eat that much good fat, fill the rest of your plate with stuff you found in the fruit and vegetable aisle. Fill your plate this way at every meal, don't eat more.
This nutrition prescription is for performance. If you want to lose weight this works and it works if you want to get stronger too.
Set some goals right now and post them to the comments. Be specific.What will you accomplish by March? 10 Pullups, 20? Deadlift 250, Press 145, run a mile under 7 minutes, 6 minutes, lose 20 or 30 pounds? Hold a freestanding handstand, boxjump 36", 45", 50"? Figure out what you want to achieve and I will help you attain it. Again, be specific with your goals, have hard numbers that you want to attain. I will post my own goals as well and we can all keep each other accountable.

Fun day today.
We got out of the gym today to play outside. Warmup was a 1 mile indian run, all the guys jog in a single file line and the last person sprints to the front. Then we did some partner back squats, pick them up, stand up and put them back down. After some partner pushups and some Tug of War we got to Hooverball. We used a 6# medball and the football goalposts. Enjoy.
