Yes, we are back and having fun in the gym again. We are getting used to the new procedures and probably over-doing the sanitizing of equipment but we are getting our WOD on again and you guys are picking it up right where you left off. Great job! Now how about the rest of you out there? June is a great month to get going with warmer drier weather. We will move outside as often as possible and have some fun with things we can’t do in the winter months.
I really believe that keeping consistent in your exercise program is one of the best things you can do to stay healthy and strong and give you the best advantage if you are exposed to the Corona virus. This whole pandemic is going to show how that is true for your defense system. The stronger you can maintain your immune system the better chance you have of fighting off any illness. This is part of CrossFit’s Sickness/Wellness/Fitness continuum that shows if you can keep moving yourself closer to a Fitness level than you are insuring you will be farther from the Sickness end of the spectrum and will have insulated yourself to deal with it better. Ask your doctor if she/he doesn’t think that being “fit” will protect you form getting “sick”. Eating right, exercising and sleeping well are your biggest assets to defend yourself and insure a longer better life. So decide today to start taking one hour of your day and invest it at the gym and start investing in yourself for a longer, stronger, healthier life that you can enjoy. I will see you at the gym!
