Carb Back-Loading

I have spent the last several days educating myself on Carb-Backloading. At a first glance I was admittingly horrified. This was partly due to the fact that a female CrossFitter is not the intended audience. The thought of eating donuts and pizza after a day of fasting and having the end product be gaining 30lbs […]

40’s the new 30

How bout those goats? Nice job getting those goats up on the board. Some of you may need to rethink your goats a bit and make them more specific. Goat training isn’t going to be just “work on your goat for 20 minutes”. That can easily turn into a lot of standing around and being […]
