What is CrossFit? Promo Video

CrossFit is the most similar style of training to what we do at Mohr Fitness.  We share the same hatred for ellipticals, and the same desire to work hard and achieve drastic results.  This video gives you a good example of how this style of training is different than what you've been doing at your cuddly little fitness center.

4 Hour Body Diet

Rather than a Daily Challenge today, I'm going to post the rules to the diet I will be following for the next 30 days.

"Slow-Carb Diet" from "4 Hour Body"
1. Eat nothing white, or that could be white (bread, pasta, cereal)
2. No fruit
3. No drinking calories (exception 2 glasses red wine per night are allowed)
4. Eat the same meals over and over (same thing for breakfast and lunch, I like to mix up my dinner)
5. One day per week, eat ANYTHING you want ALL day long.


Proteins
*Egg whites with 1–2 whole eggs for flavor (or, if organic, 2–5 whole eggs, including yolks)
*Chicken breast or thigh
*Black beans
*Beef (preferably grass-fed)
Pork
*Fish
Legumes
*Lentils (also called "dal" or "daal")
Pinto beans
Red beans
Soybeans
Vegetables
*Spinach
*Mixed vegetables (including broccoli, cauliflower, or any other cruciferous vegetables)
*Sauerkraut, kimchee Asparagus
Peas
Broccoli
Green beans

The author suggests taking one choice from each category at every meal, and has starred the choices that are most effective.

I am cooking with olive and coconut oil only, and eliminating all dairy (except eggs) as well.





Everydaypaleo.com offers an awesome dish to cook every night if you are looking for recipes.

“Don’t quit when you’re beaten, fight on just the same. Blood, sweat, and tears versus heartache and pain.  Take heart if you’ve faltered, struck out while at bat, missed the last field goal, got pinned to the mat.  Come back if you’ve fallen while leading the race, then crawled on your knees to finish in last place.  Soft victories come easy, untroubled with care, hard ones take patience, with courage to dare.  Don’t quit when you’re beaten, fight back in the strife, for a more glorious finish in sports and especially in life.”
This quote was written by the 1991 Sullivan South Football team, who had a winless season the year before and came back to win the conference championship. It hung in the locker room at South above the door we exited to practice and play on Friday nights. It now hangs in my office at Mohr Fitness.

Welcome to MOHR FITNESS

Hello, and welcome to the MOHR FITNESS blog!  This site is a FREE service dedicated to providing you with the information needed to achieve your fitness goals. 

Every day, there will be a "Daily Challenge" workout posted with a "beginner" and "advanced" option to follow.  I encourage you to post your workout stats under the Daily Challenge as a free way to track your progress, and to see how you stack up against other MOHR FITNESS followers.

Also, I know life is busy, stressful, etc... and we could all use a little motivation to work out.  So, I will provide a "Reason to Train" every day in the form of a motivational picture, video, or quote.

This is an interactive and free website, so your input and comments are greatly valued.  Thank you for supporting MOHR FITNESS!
