Episode 42: Wellness With CrossFit

📢 On Episode 42 I had the opportunity to chat with CrossFit Coach and owner of @crossfit870garage, Dickie Logan.

This is not your typical workout inspired conversation where the focus is on physical attributes only, but an honest conversation about the benefits of staying active, pushing yourself beyond what you thought you could do, and the importance of being in community.

If you’re anything like I was pre-crossfit, the first word that might come to mind when discussing CrossFit might be something like “cult”, “Extreme Athlete”, or, well, “stupid”. 🤷🏻… I get it.  

By no means, at my age, do I consider myself to be any type of “athlete” but I can say that it sure feels good to be active. To push through. To get it done, & to be doing it with others who are pushing themselves right along with you.  Since doing CrossFit I might still describe it as, well, stupid….but not in the literal sense of the word…In fact, the only reason I might say it’s stupid is because it’s hard.  It’s really, really hard at times.  But this is also the same reason that I keep going back.  You see in the moment, when it’s hard, is when we have the option to quit or to keep pushing passed the boundaries we have set for ourselves, or that our body has set for us.  The reward, for me, is simply to complete the workout and to know that I was able to look hard in the face, and keep going.
