World-Class Fitness in 100 Words:

An excerpt from CrossFit Journal

■ Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat.

■ Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds.
Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast.

■ Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense.

■ Regularly learn and play new sports.

Rhabdomyolosis

This is a very serious condition where the muscle tissues break down, enter the bloodstream, get transported to the kidneys, where excess Potassium and myoglobin shut down the kidneys.  This is a medical emergency and requires a doctor’s care.

This is a MUST READ for those who are new to CrossFit and those who are coming back from a long layoff.
