Rest Day 7/4/13:
Fun on the Esplanade last year!
Happy 4th of July!
We live in an awesome country and today is a day to celebrate that! Get outside and enjoy some time with family and friends. If you need something to do before hitting that BBQ or Picnic, challenge a friend to 100 Burpees! Ready Go!
Have a great day and come ready to hit it hard tomorrow!
Rest Day 4/4/13:
Who’s your favorite CrossFit Athlete?
Have you signed up for the CrossFit Rowing Course in Boston June 8-9? Register Here!
Larry, an epic renegade from Texas, asked this question yesterday. I thought it was a great question, because it’s always good to have role models and people who push us to be better versions of ourselves. So, I’m posing this question to all the athletes out there trying to improve their fitness and rowing. Who do you like and why?
Larry loves the drive of Mikko Salo, who happens to row a ton! I like Julie Foucher for how smooth she makes the Open WODs look. I also like guys like Jason Khalipa who have great attitudes and seem to make everyone else around them better.
Post your thoughts to comments!

Will you be at the CrossFit Rowing Course June 8-9 in Boston?
This weekend athletes and trainers from around the Northeast are coming to CrossFit Boston to get their Level 1 CrossFit Certification. They’re interested in learning more about CrossFit and taking their knowledge to the next level so they can share their love and passion for constantly varied, high intensity, functional movement with their family, friends, and community.
Sculling
If you feel the same way about Rowing, especially when combining it with CrossFit, then you should come get some knowledge too! CrossFit Boston will be hosting a 2-Day CrossFit Rowing Trainer’s Course June 8-9. On Saturday CrossFit Rowing Coach Shane Farmer will be dropping some know-how on the erg and on Sunday all participants will get a chance to take their new-found knowledge to the water at Community Rowing.

Rest Day 2/3/13:
Enjoy the Superbowl!
Challenge someone to an Inch Worm Race during half time to get those hamstrings!
Today’s a good time to hang with friends and family, eat some good food, and laugh at a few commercials. I hope you enjoy your day off from training and come back ready to throw down on Monday.
During Half Time do 15 minutes of mobility. Work on those hips, hamstrings, and ankles. If you feel ambitious do 10 push ups every time someone scores!
Rest Day 11/4:When training it is always good to take a step back from time to time and see what you’ve learned, accomplished, and can do better going forward. In the coming week I’ll be asking you to set goals. Use today as a chance to reflect on the past few months or the past year and write down a couple of lessons you can take with you into the future. Here is a link to a blog from Alex Black on what she’s learned from training with Type 1 Diabetes.
