Crossfit Training

Another year gone..where did the time go? This year has been good. Work, family and friends have all been well. I am excited to see what the new year brings, but what I am especially excited about is the fitness path Al and I have decided to follow. Its no secret that we are not the most active, or healthy people around. I used to go to the gym a lot, twice a day, and then bike ride for an hour. Some where along the way I just got busy and lost interest. Al has never really been very active, but really wants to be. The problem is motivation, it just seems difficult to get up the gumption to get moving after a day of work. Well Al found a place that might just be the thing for us. Crossfit Training. Its not really a gym, not in the conventional sense. Yes you pay monthly, and yes you go and work out, but there are no cardio machines, nor do you do the work out on your own. Its more like a class with personal trainers. They are the motivators, if you don't show up for class they notice! Unlike at a regular gym these people seem to genuinely care about your overall fitness and health! They don't just take your money and not care if you come back. That is the best part of Crossfit Training, they care and want to see you succeed. I have only gone for a week so far, but I love it and can't wait to go back. I am proving to be in better shape already. I am lifting weights heavier than I thought I could lift, and can't wait to see how far I can go. I am excited to see how this will change us for the better. I will keep you updated.

Christmas is not far away. I am looking forward to the holiday season. It will be nice to have a break from work, and hang out with friends over the season. My shopping is almost done. I love buying presents for Al, although is difficult to buy for, the challenge is fun.

I hope everyone has a great and safe holiday season, and a happy new year!
