2010-07-18 Rest Day

Post date July 18, 2010

Sundays are rest days at CrossFit Montgomery.

23:1 … The ratio 23:1 represents 23 hours of free time (time spent not working out at The Boneyard) to your one hour workout (including warm-up, WOD, and stretching). That’s 23 hours that includes hydrating, eating (nutrition), sleeping (recovery), working, playing, etc.

Recovery is just as important as training. Your body needs time to replenish energy stores and repair damaged tissues. Recovery includes, but is not limited to: rest, sleep, hydration, good nutrition, stretching, self-massaging (using a foam roller), massage by a professional, and chiropractic care.

Weekly announcements are posted on Sunday. We email these announcements to those on our mailing list. If you want to receive these announcements and other updates, please email us at 41Fitness@gmail.com. We also provide updates on Facebook and Twitter throughout the week.
