Here is a cool video by my great buddy, Jordan Gravatt of Crossfit by Overload, right after taking 2nd place on workout #4 at the SoCal Regional. I like this video for many reasons. This was a huge boost for me mentally and in the rankings. So much of what we do in Crossfit is psychological/mental. And I could see it in my eyes that there was no way I was going home without a Top 3 spot.
This was such a different year for me for some many reasons but especially in regards to my Regional Prep. A couple weeks before the Event I did a run through of the weekend and with all of the workouts and treated it like it was Regionals weekend. I hadn’t practiced the movements and I didnt test out the workouts at all before. I did my run through and was satisfied with my first attempts. I learned a lot about how I would go faster, strategy, etc. But that was it. I did not do the workouts anymore. I continued to train for the Games. Going in to Regionals I knew I would crush my previous times and compared to the previous Regionals I had some confidence in my ability to stay at the top. The fact that I did not train for the Regional workouts yet did as well as I did gives me a HUGE mental edge as we prep and get ready for the Games. Last year I trained for almost 2 months prepping myself on the exact Regional workouts. Such a difference a year makes, right? Looking forward to the Games I know I will be ready. And I know I will leave my mark at the Home Depot Center in July. Keep your eyes open or you might miss it! Time to Spread that BUTTER!
Here we go again. I have had more requests for me to bring this back. A lot of things have changed this past year for me. From working exclusively with Brian Mackenzie to dropping 203# to 185# from the end of January to March. I qualified for Regionals and am heading back to the Crossfit Games for the 4th time! I am currently writing meal plans and programming for Crossfitters across the globe in an effort to help others the way I have been helped with Crossfit and proper nutrition. So, if you have a question I will do my best to answer it. Thanks again for supporting me and checking out my website. Some very cool things are coming soon. More details and these things begin to unfold.
