CrossFit

[ann08]

Hi, mabilisang exercise po ba ito, i mean dapat mag move ka ng mabilis or may time limit every exercises?

[glacy_rein]

^ pwede every other day pero eventually you'll want to go at least 4 times a week to get stronger.

usual workout clothes lang ang outfit sis. don't worry, makakabuhat ka din ng malalaking barbell

nakausap ko na yung 2 coach and mas mura yung one-on-one session sa Foundations gano kaya katagal to? 4sessions lang compared sa naka-sched na 9sessions

actually kinakabahan ako hahaha! pero may binili nakong 2 voucher sayang din, i'll give it a try this sat.

[blazingsheena]

^ saan ka nakaili ng voucher sis?

ako naman nagtrial diyan sa sureshot sportsville sa may abad santos.. 2k/month unlimited mas mababawasan pa yun if 10 kayo.. mura na compare sa iba pero yung mismong area hindi ganun kalaki parang pang 5-6 na tao nga lang pwede dun e. tapos parang ang onti ng gamit unlike sa nakikita ko sa mga pics ng ibang crossfit centers. parang isa lang yung nakita kong malaking lifts.. sa tingin niyo ba ok lang din dun or dun na ako sa ibang crossfit centers na madaming equipments at mas malawak yung area?

usually you have to move as fast as you can in order to finish in the shortest time possible or do as many reps as possible. pero syempre dapat pakiramdaman mo pa rin sarili mo and kung kakaumpisa mo pa lang, don't push yourself to the limit muna.

example lang ng workout: 5 rounds of 10 pullups, 10 squats, 10 pushups. you have to finish the 5 rounds as fast as you can.

it depends on which crossfit box you're going to. when i attended foundation class at my box, it lasted mga 1.5-2 hours. good luck!

sis saan yang sureshot? affiliated ba sya sa crossfit? i heard kasi may ibang gyms ang tinuturo nila "crossfit-style" workouts. check out this map if you want to explore crossfit affiliate boxes - http://maps.crossfit.com/

oh ok yan ba yung group pa? feeling ko mas matagal ang 1 on 1 a hehe. pero ok din mas personalized.

did you lose weight in doing this?

[hun_nie08]

wow sis nag crossfit ka na pala

[beachgirl]

^^ small group lang kami nun, there were only 4 of us. i didn't lose weight, and in fact i gained pa because of muscle mass. pero payat pa din ako, nagka-definition lang yung katawan.

[glacy_rein]

^why sis? it doesn't help?

ok yung magkadefinition pero yung magmukhang muscle builder ayoko ng ganun… hmm

Too funny. I love it.

[glacy_rein]

^^ohhh haha! i remember vina for one grabe haha! muscle talaga. d bale update ako if nakapunta nako under coach karen

[beachgirl]

oh sorry parang malabo yata yung sagot ko. the foundations class helped a lot. you will really need that if you plan to start doing regular WODs.

when i said i gained weight and got muscle definition, i meant that as a good thing (i love getting strong). in fact, when you become immersed in the crossfit culture you'll probably start caring less about how you look and more about what your body can do.

[blazingsheena]

ang pinaka gusto ko lang naman is lumiit yung arms ko.. kasi mas mataba siya compare sa ibang parts ng katawan ko. sa tingin niyo ba liliit braso ko ng hindi nagiging malaki na parang body builder yung dating sa crossfit? ot pero anong workout ba para matanggal fats sa arms lang? ang liit kasi waistline ko and legs pero yung arms medyo malaman ;/

[beachgirl]

^ sis generally speaking hindi kasi pwede yung isang part lang ng body mo yung mag-iiba. you have to work the whole body and then maybe do extra work for the areas you want to improve (abs, arms, legs, etc).

[Frozen Toes]

^^ Amen to beachgirl. You can't spot reduce. Eat clean, train mean, get lean. You have to trust the process. Dadating din yang arms na gusto mo if you stay committed. And sa totoo lang, pag nag CrossFit ka, bilis makakita ng results. Seryosohang training kasi.

Or baka gusto mo rin mag muay thai / boxing. In my experience, okay yan na cardio workout which will help burn fat. At the same time, nakakatone din ng arms.

[blazingsheena]

frozen toes and beach girl

yup naiindtindihan ko naman na di pwedeng spot reduce. so kelangan mag diet pa and workout so pano nalang yung legs and waistline ko edi lalo silang liliit? sobrang liit ng waistline ko para daw mababali haha. legs ko naman sakto lang mabilog hindi yung skinny legs talaga. tapos yung arms ko flabby may excess fats. 5'6 ako 118lbs

[beachgirl]

^^ i would guess na if you combine a good diet and workout magto-tone yung tummy mo. i don't think liliit sya. about your legs, if you do crossfit maraming squats yan so for sure hindi din liliit yung legs mo. then about your arms, liliit yan since you said flab  lang naman. maybe try doing body weight exercises muna to shed the flab. sa crossfit gym ko may bootcamp.

[SouthernBelle]

Been wanting to try this, there's one in Alabang right?

[kachich]

^Yup, sa may Toyota Alabang
