There seems to be a running joke about people who do CrossFit in that they will QUICKLY tell you that they do CrossFit.
Full disclosure: I do CrossFit. I love it. It’s everything I’ve been looking for from a gym/workout program. Weightlifting, cardio, new workouts daily, coaching, motivation, a sense of community and friendship from the others in the gym. Continue reading
After I got back from the Wealth/Stack conference in Scottsdale, AZ last week, I wanted to write a post that focused in on my #1 takeaway from the few days in the desert.
