CrossFitTB in the News

Well we finally made in the paper. The newspress came out this past Monday to do an interview with our gym to get a better understanding of the CrossFit Games and what CrossFit is all about. I'd like to thank Seth Sophian for the kind words and great story.

CrossFit takes shape in Southwest Florida
High-intensity workouts grow quickly in popularity



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
As she stood a final time, a weighted barbell cutting into her shoulders, she let loose a guttural growl more akin to childbirth than a mid-week trip to the gym.


"I could feel myself getting very, very fatigued," the petite, 41-year-old teacher from Fort Myers said after a workout with CrossFit Thoroughbreds at Zuletta's Indoor Batting Cages in Fort Myers. "I only had a couple left. It's either stand up, or fall down."

CF Gym Rules

The gym is a unique environment in our world. People come there to improve their bodies and feel better about themselves. Most gyms have a written set of rules to govern our behavior while working out.
ALL gyms, however, have an unwritten code of behavior that is not always readily apparent to sometimes even the most advanced of us. The aim of this report is to tell you the written as well as the unwritten rules of behavior in The Gym.

The written rules of the gym are usually few and designed to ensure members safety, convenience and equipment care. You are probably familiar with the majority of them. These rules are all fairly straightforward and come out of common sense.


We ask all members to follow them or be prepared to give us 100 Burpees for breaking them. lol


CrossFit Gym Rules:

We don't want your sickness!!!

Don't go to the gym if you're sick. Too many people come to the gym sick in the hopes that it'll "make me feel better". You are only spreading your sickness to others in the gym and to us your coaches. Please stay home, get some rest and come back when you're better. We don't want to be sick any more than you do!


Practice Good Hygiene


Going to the gym is not an excuse to be lazy. We don’t expect the gym to smell like Starbucks (though that would be nice), and we certainly don’t expect to be able to smell whatever it is you ate for lunch. So please brush your teeth before heading out and don’t forget the antiperspirant.


Don’t Marinade in Perfume

Coming from a person who suffers from hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), I can understand why someone would feel the need to use perfume at the gym. But the gym is NOT the place for perfume. A good deodorant will suffice. If you sweat a lot, and feel like you need to wear something, use a light body spray/mist instead. It’s not as strong as a perfume and is less likely to irritate the senses of fellow gym-goers. Tip: Secret Deodorant has the strongest active ingredients. Plus, they have a line specifically designed for people who sweat excessively. Use their Clinical Strength at night and a stick/spray during the day. I love their aerosol pre-workout!


Clean Up After Yourself

You’d think this is common sense, but working out months in the gym proves otherwise. You wouldn’t like to stick your hand in a puddle of sweat, just like I don’t want to touch yours. Be considerate and wipe up your sweat before moving on to your next routine. Additionally, when your water bottle is empty, it is not okay to leave it lying around the gym- throw it in the trash.

Be Alert

In CrossFit many people are working out at the same time. Some with barbells and very heavy weights moving around the gym. Please be alert and aware of what is going on around you. Especially around the power racks. Many times as coaches we see people walking or standing between the racks while some is in them lifting. This can be dangerous for both individuals as the person walking or standing could be hit by the moving barbell. While the person lifting could be destracted and miss a lift and become injured.


Put it Back

After using your equipment please clean it off and put it back in it's original place where you found it. We are your coaches not your maids. We all went to kindergarten, right? We all learned that after you play with something you put it back, so put back the gear when you're done. You're coaches will appreciate it!




Talking Do not talk to someone in the middle of a set. This is very distracting and they are probably not listening to you anyway. Don't be offended if and when they ignore you. Wait until they're done

 
Personal Items
 
Don't leave your bags, jackets, towels, etc. where people can trip on them. Many members have left glasses, phones and ipods on the floor to only have someone accidentally step on them and break them. Don't let this be you!
 
 
Be Nice
It's not nice to laugh at other people just because they can't lift as much as you. Remember, there is always someone else who can lift more than you. We're all CrossFitters here. We should come together like a family to support, encourage and help eachother succeed!

But I'm Big Boned

OK. No more excuses about being "Big Boned" anymore.















X-rays of a normal weight person 
and an obese person.

    • Scott Stevens Thus the belief that some heavy folks are big boned is dashed. Look at how small the skeletal frame appears. Those poor bones.
    • Keli Roberts Its not just the joints and spine, although that's a major concern, think about the internal organs, the liver, the spleen, and how crushed they are in all that mass. Not good!
    • Shawn Fears smaller bones due to inactivity, lesser thoracic cavity for lungs coupled with extra weight to move = disaster waiting to happen.
    • Coleman Ray I'm no Doctor but it looks as if the heavy persons spin has so much weight on it that it's not even straight. One wrong move and that back could go out quick.

OmegaRx is the highest purity fish oil with or without a prescription


Looking for the best fish oil supplement? The quality of any fish oil product can be judged by the levels of contaminants, such as PCBs, found in the oil. Any company that states its fish oil is free of PCBs is simply not honest. OmegaRx has a lower level of PCBs than prescription fish oil but at a fraction of the cost.


Lowest price per gram of EPA and DHA

OmegaRx is not only a pharmaceutical grade fish oil but also the most inexpensive when measured on the actual cost of EPA and DHA in the capsule. Why pay more for a less pure fish oil concentrate?

Personally developed by the person who started the fish oil revolution

Dr. Barry Sears started the fish oil revolution nearly 10 years ago with his groundbreaking book, The OmegaRx Zone. Dr. Sears continues to be one of the top omega-3 fatty acid researchers in the world and completely oversees all aspects of the production of OmegaRx.

CrossFit Result


by Shellie Halstead on Monday, September 5, 2011


Yesterday I experienced my first non-pain related result from Crossfit. :-)

We went to the archery range and I found two big differences. First, the quality of my practice increased as I was able to hold my shooting position much longer without shaking. I spent all my time thinking about my technique and no time thinking about how heavy the bow was getting. Second, we were at the range for two hours before my arms got too tired to shoot anymore. I have no idea how long I was shooting before but I would guess it was more like 30 minutes. What really surprises me though is that I've only been doing Crossfit for two weeks...
