CrossFit Flourish Radio

Do you need to compete in CrossFit to still be a CrossFitter? On today’s episode Belinda and Greg discuss competitive CrossFit and the exercise programme that is CrossFit. Should you compete in CrossFit? What part of CrossFit is actually the sport and what part is the fitness regime? Listen to today’s episode and find out how much everything has changed since the start of the CrossFit Games to now and why we should be focussing on our health goals rather than the elite fitness aspirations.

We’re back! On today’s episode CrossFit Flourish Coaches Greg, Belinda and Jane sit down to chat like the old podcasts. Recently we have been advertising out to the local area and we posed the question to our members, What were you looking for when you first started CrossFit? And What made you stay? The response we had was AMAZING! Answers that people gave us really drove home how well we help people achieve true health and fitness. But it also raised a few questions, questions that a lot of people (we feel) would like answers to. Head to our website to find out more about CrossFit Flourish Crossfitflourish.com

We’re back! It’s been a little while and Coach Greg is here to talk about how you handle yourself in training. Are you always completing (or leaderboarding)? Are you able to do the movements in a safe way or do you just give it everything you have got while forgetting all the important stuff. Greg also touches on the hot topic in our gym of overtraining vs under recovery (a blog is coming about this with more details) and many more things. We’re just blowing out the cobwebs from a bit of a break. We have some awesome content coming soon to give you what you need.

On today’s episode Greg sits down with coach Paige to discuss the issues involved with specialising in sport at a young age. They discuss how being committed to one sport at a young age can lead to physical and mental disorders that become a much larger problem as these young people grow into adults and how this also relates to adults using their job as an excuse for not doing regular exercise. Paige shares her insights from personal experience and offers solutions to those that might be in this situation already.

Jenna and Greg shoot the breeze about her first start into exercise 2 years ago. Jenna's first impression when she walked in to the gym was being in awe and intimidated by the things people were doing. Now she is a role model of consistency, physical and mental strength and health for others in and out of the gym. Heaps of insights for her journey to fitness thru CrossFit, her mindset and nutrition. And a bonus discussion at the end for any Anime geeks :)
