Something Yummy When You Need A Snack, Easy to Make, Cheap and Won't Leave You Feeling Guilty....Enjoy!

I stole this from one of the affiliates I used to train with in CA. Sam was great at finding yummy snacks...As you can tell by the recipe, Sam cooks similar to me; pinch here, looks about right, maybe a little bit of this, but you also find some of the best stuff that way:)...Enjoy!!

Mix 2 eggs in a bowl. Mix in 2 cans of seafood (tuna, crab, salmon). Add a lot of good mustard and some mayo or something similar. Liberally sprinkle on various spices (pepper, garlic powder, turmeric, parsley, etc) and Tapatio or Tabasco. Stir together. Cook in a saute pan with olive oil on the stove until hot (egg is cooked). Eat half for lunch and stuff the rest into baby sweet peppers which have been halved. You can use regular bell peppers of course, and it’s a little less work, but I find that the sweet pepper to filling ratio is perfect with the babies. Refrigerate and enjoy later. You can use 1 egg and 1 can of tuna for a smaller portion. Feel free to add in sauteed shallots or chopped celery or anything that you think you might like. The baby bells are a nice little snack to have on hand for the quick cravings that kind of sneak up on you and you might have solved once upon a time with some chips or a cookie. Super easy, super cheap, damn tasty.

Help a Life in The CrossFit Community...

Help a life in the CrossFit community.

Kevin Ogar, is a CrossFit coach at CrossFit Unbroken in Denver Colorado. He is a highly respected trainer and athlete. Unfortunately, this past weekend at The OC Throw Down, an extremely competitive CrossFit Competition in Southern California, Kevin failed a snatch attempt. He separated his T-11, T-12, and severed his spine causing current paralysis from the waist down. He is in and out of surgery, but from what I have heard he has no-voluntary movement below his belly-bottom. Kevin also is uninsured and as you can imagine the medical costs of this injury will be very expensive. Barbells for Boobs has set up a website where you can help fundraise for Kevin. Doesn’t have to be much, anything helps whether its money, prayers, or sharing the website so more people can help. Here’s the link:

https://fundly.com/kevin-ogar-s-recovery

I’m sharing this information to help raise funds for Kevin so he can get the medical attention he needs, but also to remind you that CrossFit is a sport, it can be dangerous, and it can cause injuries. I’m not trying to scare anyone off, and to be honest the chances of this happening are extremely rare – people are calling it a freak accident. However, these accidents happen. Kevin is an elite CrossFit athlete and was snatching a great amount of weight, but this can happen to anyone. As we go through our motions in the gym we really need to be cautious of those around us and ourselves.

Form comes first! If you have to slow down, use a PVC pipe instead of a barbell, whatever you have to do to stay safe, do it. Don’t let your ego destroy your ability to workout. Also, listen to your coaches! If they tell you not to go so heavy or to do a progression they aren’t trying to degrade you, they are helping you stay safe and get a good workout in. Perfect form is commonly neglected and so hopefully this can remind you of how extremely important it is. Listen to your body, if something doesn’t feel right, or you don’t think your doing a movement correct ask a coach.

Stay safe and work hard!

A Look Back...By Trevor Exline


Now that the dust has settled and as we begin to break in our awesome new facility, I would like everyone to take a second to reflect on how far we have come individually and as a community in just a over a year! No one particular person has created what we have, but rather all of us coming together as a community to create a place to change lives for the better. Our affiliate is more then just a place to train, it's a place to come vent after a rough day, to laugh, fight, sweat and stay grounded in this crazy place we call home! We set examples for our children, friends and family for what it means to work and live healthy. We do almost no advertising or marketing yet we continue to steadily grow; why is that? The answer is because of each and everyone of you! You may not have realized it but each and everyone of our members have inspired someone else to make a positive change in their lives. By sacrificing sweat angels, blisters, sore muscles, and 60 minutes out of your day we are making a difference!

So take a look back whether you just started a month ago or have been with us since the high school weight room and remember how far you have come. Thank You for all of your sacrifices and support and I can't wait to see where we take our little farm barn from here!

God Bless!

Trevor
