CROSS-fit #103 It has to be fun!

We all want to be stronger, fitter, faster, better.

Therefore, we train.

We do Crossfit for that main reason don't we? We just want to better ourselves in every way possible.

However, has it come to a point whereby, it just isn't fun anymore?
Whereby the goals, the dreams just seem to be all that mattered, making that lift has become the entire World.

Has it come to a point whereby all you want to do is to become the fittest on Earth such that, well, it isn't fun anymore?

I've read many articles which say that training isn't a pretty walk in the park.

Don't get me wrong, training is supposed to be serious, dead serious.

But hey, when did we stop having fun in Crossfit?

The idea of Crossfit was to become a sport of fitness.

For people, like you and me to do the things we were made to do, to compete in the most basic movements!

In all that you're training for, be it in other sports or in Crossfit or even in your job.

Don't let it get all serious till it comes to a point whereby training becomes all that matters.

Chill out.

Have a fun WOD here and there. Do workouts which involve movements you know will NOT be in the Crossfit games and won't elicit the best improvements in your technique, skill or CNS. But do them just cause they're fun!

Take some time to just chill by the pool for no particular reason (No, it isn't active rest)

Crossfit is training. Serious training for that matter.

We are all striving for greatness.

But in that pursuit, don't wear yourself out in such a way that it becomes a routine, a monotonous routine.

Throw in some spice!

Happy Halloween Everyone!
