KJ’s Corner………….Inside and Outside the Box!
by Kathy Jo Loewenberg                         

The Opens for the CrossFit games begin in a few short weeks. February 22 to be exact!!! CFM needs everybody to register for our team. Here’s the deal…… Everybody loves a little magic in their lives!!!  I also understand that most of us find ourselves outside in the little circle!   But………….

*Don’t be intimidated! The WODs are going to be posted on Wednesday and done in class on Saturday just like any other WOD we would have done. So you’re going to do the workout anyway whether you like it or not!

*Every movement is scalable, just like any other day!!!

* A “bad” score will not hurt the team- but the more people who register will help the team!!!

* It’s fun!!! Especially when you see your name up on the CrossFit Games participant board and you can follow how our team is doing and ranked!

* Just like any other day-you WILL get it done!!!! Have you ever not finished a workout to date for any other reason than injury? Umm…No!

* And the number one excuse I’ve heard this week….”I don’t like competing”!

Hate to break it to ya, but that’s what you do every day!!!!! Each day when you step foot in the box you compete with yourself, the people around you, the board, the clock, a previous time, a previous weight, a previous number of reps, and well, you get the idea!! 

I am registered! 

I am nervous!

I am definitely out of my comfort zone!

I am excited to see some magic!!!!!

Your turn!

On Ramp:  The next open on ramp will be starting on February 20. It will run every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 6:30-7:30.
