Sidenote: Bruce Lee Part 1


Bruce Lee - Lost Interview - Funny video clips are a click away

BRUCE LEE

Looking back at his incredible career, one aspect of his life that can never be talked about enough is his fitness. Bruce Lee's devotion to the holistic approach of fitness to the human body gave birth to modern day Cross Training. Cross Training is defined as a program combining several exercises to work various parts of the body, effectively. Using the principle of "muscle confusion" it helps the body to adjust and improve overall conditioning. For example, during the exercise the person gains strength by performing the movement at every exercise station. After the exercise is performed the person switches to another body part quickly, with a short rest period. With the brief rest period it forces the body to engage in a cardiovascular workout.

The Point: It works on Strength and Conditioning at the same time. Which cuts down the time needed in the gym, and gives the person The Cardio Connection.

WELCOME to the NEW SITE!!!!


Now that I'm finally done with exams and tests I am finally free from the system!!! I can get back to crossfit 4-5 times a week and I will keep my people posted of my times for each workout.

Some my wonder: What is this site about? Do you really workout in ur momma's basement? The short and pathetic answer is yes (I'm broke, I just got outta college!!!). Anyhoo I went to a Crossfit official affiliate for over a year and I just got my own stuff and started doing the WODs on my own. I time myself against other ppl around the world so I'll mention which gym I'm up against.

-Pics and results soon to come!
