New Article - Zone Made Easy

Gang, you will have heard Leon and I talking about the Zone diet in recent months.  It is the eating plan promoted by Crossfit and is also the eating plan that is fuelling Jonny's amazing performance of late.  For a great introduction, download and read Crossfit journal #21 here

That is sufficient to get started but does require that you take a rather analytical approach, at least to begin with.  It is for this reason that I typed up the following article last year on another site. Have a read and feel free to ask any questions you like.

10 June - Fran

"What's your Fran time?" is the Crossfit equivalent of "How much do you bench?"

The full monty is

21-15-9
Thrusters, 95lb
Pull-ups

We scaled reps, loads or even movements to ensure that the workout was the sprint it is meant to be.  From the number of Fran coughs during the end of session stretch I think we got it right!
