And that cult is Crossfit.
Right now....my plan is after I get back from my 6 weeks at home (which I plan on making myself getting into better shape by runnin all over the place! -- we'll see if that works out) to join a crossfit gym.
People I know who have done crossfit for a year (or less!) are in AMAZING shape. Not only do they look good, but they are trained like an athlete. As opposed to the masses of jacked up people at the gym who look great but would die if they had to do some kind of intense athletic performance outside of the gym. I find myself frustrated a lot with how out of shape I feel, get out of breath when doing what used to be normal activities for me!
And I figure if I need an outlet to get obsessed with something, why not something healthy?
There are a few cons however. All of the gyms are equally about 30 minutes from where I live. And...its not free. I'm used to paying 15$ a month for a gym membership....for a crossfit membership (which includes the training as well -- hence the increased cost) is ~$100/month (this includes student discount).
All in all though....i think the benefits are worth it.
Now if I can just actually make myself do it. It's.....pretty intense workouts. And I know NO ONE does well when just beginning. Can I just skip to the "I'm in super shape" part? Maybe I can get someone to join with me. :)
Lauren? Wanna move to dallas and crossfit? Oh and btw, after doing some research, theres one in Sugarland as well. So if I happen to move there, I hope you'll go with me :D Year round...sic-fit bikini bods. lol
Well, this is the first thing i've been inspired/excited about in a good long while. Maybe I'm breaking through the numbness. I hope anyway!
So there it is. I want to join the Crossfit Cult.
