Find your needle!

After spending the weekend at the south super regional competition it's really easy to see the growth of crossfit as a sport and how much people eat this up. In fact it's exciting and overwhelming all at the same time.

So many conversations and overhearing people talk about how hard they are gonna go train and what they would give to be out there competing and mousy admit I became excited all over again about the idea of competing out there. What I didn't hear was anything about fun from anyone except the competitors. It was a good reminder that while it's exciting to go back to your home box and train hard, don't forget to have fun whole doing it! Another thing is to not compare yourself to games athletes. It will only get you down if you don't put up the same numbers they do. Look up to them and be inspired by them for sure but in the same way we lookup to the NFL, NBA, and MLB greats.

These days, getting to the games is like finding a needle in a haystack. Not that it isn't possible, but more like there are so many awesome athletes but only room for a few that are able too rove themselves on competition day.

My advice or those that live competing in crossfit: sign up for competitions that suit your ability level and definitely sign up for the Open! In between, master your weaknesses and keep your strengths sharp. In that order too. The more you work weaknesses the easier it is to find that needle in the haystack!
