At the hair salon the other day some of the stylists were talking about new years resolutions. One of them busted out a pair of the new reebok shoes that are supposed to give you a great ass. They all took turns trying them on. Then when they started to decide what to order for take out lunch they said lets go healthy...and suggested firehouse subs. I was torn between being embarrassed for them, being annoyed, and just feeling badly for them.

It's the big issue in the Crossfit world right now that it's growing too quickly. Too many affilliating. Some of them using gimmicks, advertising to the "quick fixers", and moving toward running their boxes like a big box gym. Commercialism sucks sometimes. One thing is for sure. Gimmicks always end up being phased out. Crossfit has the ability to change peoples lives. I see it every day. I've connected with a ton of people through Crossfit. People from all walks of life and people of all ages and people all over the country. In case I haven't said it enough, I'm eternally grateful for all the people I train with, far away or close by.
