Delicious Chicken Breast

Stuffed Chicken Breast

Here is a quick and tasty protein recipe. These
can be made ahead of time and they are
portable for lunches and snacks. As far as the
seasonings, experiment with your favorite fresh
herbs and spices. I used garlic powder, oregano,
and thyme for this batch.

Time: 12 minutes prep, 30 minutes cooking
• large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1-2 Tbsp tahini per chicken breast
• chopped tomato
• shredded spinach
• seasonings to taste
With a sharp fillet knife, slice the chicken breasts
lengthwise, making a pocket to stuff. Spread
the tahini in each chicken pocket. Fill with the
spinach and tomato, or other veggies of your
choice. Add any seasonings, close the chicken
breast, and place in a baking dish. Bake in the
oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Zone Blocks: 1 oz chicken = 1 block protein, 1
Tbsp tahini = 5 blocks fat, carb content minimal

Courageous or Cowardly?



We all know what he did.

Is what he did forgivable? Should he be allowed to move on?

Sub-7:00min Helen (3 rds: 400m run, 21 KB (1.5 POOD), 12 Chins)

One of my favorite all-time videos and the music is awesome!

Leighanne was attending a Crossfit Cert in California. James was down there as well, but his job was to take care of there young daughter while Leighanne attended the course. When James arrived at the end of the day to pick up Leighanne, he was asked by the HQ staff to perform a WOD for the other class attendees. You see, if you don't know already, James is larger than life to some people within the Crossfit world. At the time, a fair comparison would be to watch Michael Jordan play basketball, or Wayne Gretzky play hockey, or Babe Ruth play baseball (I won't use Tiger Woods here because James truly adores his wife)...you get my drift.

Loving Crossfit as much as James does, he would seldom turn down a WOD, especially if he knew it would inspire someone else to get a little bit more serious about fitness and health.

It's very inspiring. Have a watch.

Promises

High Performing Businesses keep over 80% of their promises.

Mediocre Performing Businesses keep 30% of their promises.




What is a promise?

How many do you keep? How many do you break?

Are you a high performer or a mediocre performer?

Lamoureux Twins



Wish my cousins luck over the next 16 days.

Warm-up

Gang,

I have noticed that some people are not doing much of a warm-up.

Sufficient warm-up is critical!!!

You WILL get injured if you don't warm up properly prior to diving into your WOD.

If you are not sure of what your warm up should be, look at the board.

I will post a warm up that should be sufficient for everyone.

3-2-1 GO!
