Happy New Year to you and yours!
Thank you! Happy New Year to you too, Daybreak!
As we look forward to our second full year of pursuing better with you, we invite all of you to participate in our #3goalstobetter Challenge. But this isn’t your normal “resolution” or “goals” challenge. We have something pretty darn cool in store for you… but we’ll reveal that in a few weeks.
What?!? The suspense is killing me, what should I do now? I want to play!
Start thinking about 3 measurable goals. Over the course of this week, your coaches will be asking you to document 3 fitness goals you can achieve inside of our cloud-laden blue walls by the end of 2015. We want these to be aggressive goals. Ones that will take you out of your comfort zone, but more importantly, these are goals that will make you “better”… better in your own personal way.
Oh my garsh, I’m no good at this, can you help me craft some goals?
Sure we can. Chat with your coaches or get creative! Get insightful! Have fun with it! But be sure you can accomplish it within the box and we can observe or measure it. Some examples include:
- Getting my first pull-up
- Snatching xxx pounds
- Sub x:xx Fran time
- Losing xx pounds
- Gaining xx pounds
- Eating clean xx% of the time
- Dropping x pants/dress sizes
- Attending class at least x times per week
- Eliminating all negative comments before, during and after workouts
- Making no excuses for my performances
- Eliminating added sugars from my diet
- Going to x specialty classes per week
- Wodding with my family x times per week
- Finishing in top x% of my age group in the CrossFit Open (starts in Feb! – we’ll post more about this soon)
- Qualify for CrossFit Regionals
Okay, once I have my goals, what on earth do I do with them?
We’ll be discussing this challenge throughout the week at our regular classes. Or you can come see Mel or any of the coaches. They’ll tell you what to do. We’ll then inventory these goals for you, and soon announce the ways in which your coaches will help you build a plan to accomplish these goals, and the method by which your community will motivate you, inspire you and hold you accountable.
This is so exciting!!! I’m just giddy about this. I love you Daybreak.
