"Dog Fit"


Will likes to call what we do here at CrossFit Geneseo "Dog Fit". We all laugh and think it is very funny. I have also noted several CrossFit Affiliates have dog logos or actually have dogs wandering around the gym. Think about the fitness of a dog for a minute. A dog is always ready for whatever challenge is presented to him. A dog will run until he drops, rest a minute and get up and run again until he drops. A dog does not makes excuses, or say he is just too tired today. A dog does not complain. He always gives all he's got. Any time you are willing to take him for a walk he is READY! A dog is always ready to play, go for a walk, protect his family and property, or chase a squirrel. Dogs really seem to enjoy running, jumping, wrestling, or whatever tomfoolery they can think of.

I think "dog fit" is a goal to strive for. We should be READY for whatever challenges life might throw our way. We should be READY to sprint a quarter mile to catch the bus, we should be READY to lift a heavy object out of the way to protect the safety of our loved ones. We should be READY to play with our kids and dogs.
