CrossFit Prescription - Apply liberally.

I read this quote by Francis Ford Coppola recently,
"I was never afraid of risks. I always had a good philosophy about risks. The only risk is to waste your life, so that when you die, you say, “Oh, I wish I had done this.” I did everything I wanted to do, and I continue to."
Nice.


As you read this think for a moment about your daily life.  Start with something simple, say, your morning commute.  Is it the same route day after day?  Do you drive, ride a bike, or walk?  Does it affect your state of mind in a positive or negative way?  Do you even know or are you on Auto-pilot?


As a CrossFitter and affiliate owner I have taken the model past the point of constantly changing movements, loads, time domains, etc... and have tried to see what the model could do when applied generally across all aspects of my life.  Constant variance.  It breeds perspective to say the least.


You might find it rejuvenating to apply the same principal to your life.  As you head to work tomorrow, consider the possibilities.
