Setting goals is a HUGE part of achieving success. We've talked a little in our private Facebook group about your 2014 goals, but let's start breaking those big items down to monthly/weekly tasks. What small steps can you take each week to get closer to that goal? We're talking anything from stringing together 10 perfect-form push ups or achieving a handstand...to starting a food log or increasing your water intake...to taking the TV out of your bedroom or getting at least 8 hours of sleep. There are plenty of things each of us could work on, so you just have to pick one of them and stay focused. What's your April/May goal? How are you going to achieve it?

Strength:

Turkish Get-Up (with KB or Odd Object)

Conditioning/Skill:
"Bar Hold" (75/55#)
Change positions every :15 for 6:00
-Top of Deadlift
-Clean to Front Rack

...and here's the announcement you've all been waiting for...YOUR NEW CROSSFIT HERMITAGE SWAG IS READY TO ORDER! We owe a huge thank you to Chelsea Rank for getting the flag design started for us - we love it!

You can choose from either of these two designs; we have shirt samples and color options ready for you at the box so you can see the tank tops, burnout, short sleeve, long sleeve, zip up, and pullover hoodie options. Pick and choose to get what you want...and wait...wouldn't these make great Christmas gifts, too? You have about a week to pre-order so we can ensure they are printed in time and in our hands by 12/23.

Out-of-towners...just shoot us an email and we'll work through the details to get one of these beauties in your hands, too.

For those of you unfamiliar with the "Burn the Boats" phrase on the back, here's the deal...legend has it that when Cortes landed in Mexico in the 1500s, he ordered his men to burn their own ships to remove the possibility of doing anything other than going forward into the unknown. The phrase is also attributed to the commanders of the ancient Greek warriors who would command “burn the boats” to eliminate any notion of retreat as they landed on enemy shores. Remove the obstacles and excuses in your life. Commitment takes courage, but amazing things happen when you decide there is no turning back!

Did you set your November goal yet? You MUST have goals to truly succeed...bottom line. Whether your goals are habit based (drink 1G of water each day); skill based (practice pull-ups or DUs or HS after every workout); nutrition related (strict Paleo for 30 days); or something else...you have to set long-term goals, then figure out a few short-term steps that will get you there, then think about what you need to do each month to take those steps. Write your short- and long-term goals on the large boards, and jot down that monthly goal on the board by the water fountain TODAY. Stick to it and you'll be amazed at your progress!

Strength: Turkish Get-Ups

Conditioning:
4 Rounds
7 Wall Ball (20/14#)
7 MB Push-Ups
14 Russian Twist with MB

Here's a quick and yummy new Paleo recipe for you guys to try.
No-Crust Quiche (aka Egg Brownies)
Beat a dozen eggs in a large bowl & set aside.
Using a shredder or food processor, grate 3-4 large carrots and add to egg mixture.
Grate 2-3 zucchini AND squeeze the water out; add to egg mixture.
Add a dash of salt & pepper (we also included a pinch of rosemary and sage).
Grease a 9x13" baking dish, pour the egg mixture into the pan and bake at 375 for approximately 45 minutes.  NOTE: this dish will puff a little while baking and deflate as it cools - don't panic.  It's fine. 

To serve, we cut this golden goodness into about 12 squares (hence the name "egg brownies"), which makes about 5-6 servings. You can store the leftovers for a few days - it's just as good reheated!


Strength:
Turkish Get-Ups (3x5 each arm; increase weight each time)

Conditioning:
5 Rounds for Time
10 Box Jumps (24/20")
10 KB Swings (55/35#)
10 Pull-Ups
