CrossFit Football Certification: Learning the Game
The CrossFit Football Certification is an introduction to the CF Football concepts, movements and level of intensity needed to be successful playing football. In the CrossFit Football Certification, athletes will be provided with a foundation for training for football. Participants will be taught the basic movements for training, sprinting and drills. This will include basic movements, change of direction and agility drills. They will be given information on nutrition/diet, programming and film study. Film study is done to show the practical application of the CrossFit movements to football.
This certification is presented by pro football player John Welbourn and his crew. The CrossFit Football staff will include former and current football players and strength coaches. John is a CrossFit Level 2 instructor and creator of CrossFit Football. He was drafted with the 97th pick in 1999 NFL Draft. John went on to be a starter for the Philadelphia Eagles from 1999-2003, appearing in 3 NFC Championship games, and for the Kansas City Chiefs from 2004-2007.

See you soon,

Stephen, I went to Open Gym this morning to chill with my mama Robyn.
Sierra, you will be pleased to know that I have a mostly finished draft of my diet posting. It will be unleashed upon an uncaring world soon.
WE WILL BE O-LIFTING THIS SUNDAY FROM 1:30 TO 3:30 P.M.
THIS SESSION IS OPEN TO THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE TAKEN A CLINIC OR O-LIFTING SESSION WITH ME. DROP IN FEE IS $20. COME PREPARED TO LIFT BIG WEIGHTS!
I'd like to go in halfises with someone on a Prather Ranch box if they haven't all been taken.
i'm just kidding serge. it was good to be in the gym without you grunting during your calf extensions
anybody else feeling seriously depleted after that? i ate a good breakfast, with carbs, but still...
mikey, i think your programming (glass box?) is really having an impact on my met-con. that was my best 2000, and first ever 1000 under 4:00 (3:59). good tips on snatch today, too.
Joe are you suggesting that you are experiencing improvements in cardiovascular fitness without doing long slow distance work? There's a word for that, you know... Heresy.
By the way, your comment on the Manthropology topic a few days ago was among the finest I have read in some time. I meant to write that earlier, but forgot.
Tom, good point. Perhaps Saturday's bike ride was more beneficial than I realized. Thank you for your kind words. Nicole had been the only one to comment on that post, leaving me slightly manxious (fearful of appearing uncool to other men).
many men become manic with manxiousness and develop mandibular tension as a result, it's a shame.
