Lot's Going On

(Sign up for Dani's BootCamp ladies and you can get a bum "made by CrossFit")

I got a call today from CrossFit HQ about affiliating. It was awesome they called me to check up on things and welcome me to the family. I look forward to getting everything in order and making it official soon. I will keep you posted.

I got a job today!!! It is with the commissionaires, which is a good fit for me because they are all ex military guys and girls. There is lots of opportunity in this job to do some neat work with RCMP, EPP and the Federal Government. I look forward to things!

My Nutrition lecture went very well. I still have to work on things more and clean it up a bit but I had a great crowd of 4 people to practice on. Keep posted I plan on stepping up the nutrition content on here. I have been meeting some cool guys on the base at the CrossFit gym. I am going to put up posters and start some personal training there. There is definately a great CrossFit knowledge base but I think all the guys who are qualified are with the Patricia's and they have their own gym. I am lookin forward to training some people there.

Finally, Dani has been getting lots of attention for her BootCamp. If you are interested in learning a boat load and getting fit you should check it out. Info is in the top left corner.

Affiliates that play together Thrive Together

(Dani, Me and Three amazing and knowledgeable trainers: Maggie, Dave and Pat.)

Yes, I know I haven't been posting my workouts, or anything for that matter. I will return to posting workouts soon. Today I have better things to talk about.

Dani and I will be affiliating with CrossFit soon. We have starting but there is still lots to do. More to follow on this.

Revisiting Peru, I spoke to Coach about affiliating and he gave me a boat load of advice. One of the pieces of advice I liked the most was the stories of affiliates that are literally 2 blocks from each other. CrossFit affiliates should not look at each other as competition but as partners. In addition we talked about professionalism and passion regarding a job. A true professional is always learning and trying to get better, that includes taking criticism and listening to clients. In addition, they have a passion for what they do and actually enjoy going into work everyday.

There are many other aspects that go into a good trainer but I think professionalism and passion are very key variables. Greg Glassman said, "Clients are not harvested like a fruit, they are made." I look forward to building great clientel and "playing" with the other affiliates.
