FIGHT WELL: Begins in Your Head, Follows in Your Heart

by Rachael Cadden

Watching the intensity, focus and determination of the athletes competing in the Winter Olympic Games, and the NLP Team tryouts for the 2010 CrossFit games this past weekend, I am ever reminded that fighting well begins in the mind, but must be activated the heart.  

 The Olympic Creed of Athletes denotes the most important thing in life is not the triumph, but the struggle. The essential component is not to have conquered, but to have fought well.

Fight well. 

Fighting well begins in your mind.  The mind is an amazing instrument. It will first and instinctively find a thousand reasons to stop, give in, do less and be comfortable even though our bodies have more to offer.  You must find the ONE reason to keep fighting, to press on, to overreach your limits. To fight well.  It starts with training your mind, then your heart takes over.   

Fight well.

Though winning is a valiant goal, most of the thousands of athletes competing in the 2010 Winter Olympic Games know they will not receive a medal. They train and compete for the experience of an amazing world tournament that will test their limits, redefine who they are and to conquer what was once a personal best.

They fight well.

No one truly knows but you what your personal best is. Regardless of your finish, if you pushed your personal boundaries like many of the Olympic Athletes beyond where you had been before… then you have the heart, mind and Viking Spirit of the Olympics and its Winter Games origin.  You have fought well.

Train your mind to fight well. Your heart will follow.

Fight well.  Finish impeccably.

"It takes a struggle, a goal and enthusiasm to make a champion."

- Norman Vincent Peale

Who do you think won the wheel barrel challenge?

Alana aka "Georgia" showing good triple extension, jumping the weight up.  The sumo deadlift high pull is one of the movements most people perform incorrectly.  The most common flaw we see is pulling with the arms before the hips have fully extended.

Announcements:

  1. Make sure all competitors have registered for the Next Level Invitational.  The women's intermediate and men's advanced are almost sold out.  We need to have our same huge cheering section like that of the OC Throwdown.  Let's go guys, support NLP!!!
  2. Start keeping a log book of all workouts and nutrition.  This will be the key to tracking your improvement.  We will have books available soon but in the meantime please get a cheap .99 book to track your wods and what you are shoving in your mouth.  As the wods become more detailed it will become harder to us to post results and we want to focus more time on coaching you.

"Commit to excellence, become massively innovative and wear your passion on your sleeve."
