Email - love it or hate it?

EMAIL!! Okay, I am really going to age myself here, but did you know that I got my first e-mail account when I was in University? I didn't get a cell phone until I started working for a larger company and my boss was mortified that I didn't have one. He made me go get one, expense it and call him back with my number. He asked how I didn't have one and my response was simple, "I am just not that important that people need to get a hold of me 24/7". Fast forward 20 years, and I can not imagine life without that "connection".

5 Second Rule

5 Second Rule

If you have followed me for a while, you know that I love to read and listen to books while I am on the road. I just finished "The 5 Second Rule" by Mel Robbins. It was a good reminder and such great advice. If you haven't read it, the idea is that when you have an idea to act on it within 5 seconds before your brain shuts it down. To be clear, this is not for huge, life changing decision - no, those still require careful thought. This rule is great to be used for daily decisions and they may just end up changing your life.

Too much training, not enough recovery

Too much training, not enough recovery

Do you over train? I am a huge fan of moving your body every single day, but not always to extreme fatigue. Over the years, we have learned a lot. We do CrossFit and we love it. When we first started, we had the mentality of just go hard every day in every WOD and no days off. We were sore all of the time. We learned that this might not be the smartest and you will see that as reflected in our programming.

Too busy...

Too busy...

In a time where we have more technology and more advancements to simplify our lives, it seems that we are more burnt out than ever. It's as though we feel like with every minute of extra time we create, we need to add in more work. I mean if you aren't husting, you are lazy, right? We are living in one of the best times in human history but we aren't leading the healthy and high performing lives that we should be.

Meet Tara our new in-house nutritionist!

My name is Tara and I have been a member at 306 since December 2018. I joined with my daughter, Keela, as a way to spend time with her and get back into shape. I will be the first to admit that I was scared and intimidated as I had been active in the past, but not “crossfit active.” I am proud to attest that the morning of my first class, everyone was so supportive and accepting. They made me feel at home and as part of the 7 am Crossfit group…

"You reap what you sew"

This is an old saying and one that I have really tried to implement more in my day to day. I am trying to give more thought to my actions. If I want good things to come to me, I must put good things into the world. If I want my kids to be kind and considerate, I must show them kindness and consideration. If I show frustration or belittle their thoughts, they will behave with those same feelings. So, think about what it is that you want and be sure that you are putting into the world what you are hoping to get out of it. Think about your words, actions and tone. Live each moment with intention.
