I am at a cross roads in my own training. I am training just to train, and it gets harder to stay motivated every year. I am today starting to train for next year's Crossfit games, with some reservations. As I have posted on this blog before, I have my issues with Crossfit doctrine, and methodology, but I do think the games themselves are the single most comprehensive fitness competition conceived thus far. So because of lack of another close option, I have decided this is my only option.
My biggest concerns with the competition so far are bodyweight based. I am 6'3 and between 240-250 pounds. My strength levels are good, so that needs to be maintained, but I feel that a 20-30 pound weight loss is necessary for good performance, as well as some work in the distance running/rowing department. So to keep track and keep things honest, 1 am starting to keep track today all workouts from here to the first competitions.
