Confidence to Let Your Arrow Fly The Little Book of CrossFit for Beginners Ignite Strength, Discipline of the Mind, and Life Leadership - Paperback

by Heidi Leatherby (Author)

A brief overview of why this book was written: After researching for a long time, I could not find a single collection of information to help people get an idea of what it is like to be new in a CrossFit gym, without having to actually step into one. Not everyone is comfortable with the idea of walking into a new space with heavy weights booming as they crash to the floor, people performing unfamiliar physical monstrosities, and beads of sweat flying like little projectile missiles only to land in small splatters on whatever surface gets in their way. Enter the reasoning for why this little book was written. It is my hope that what is written here might give a quick, well rounded, and honest perspective from a person who began, like many people, from scratch. And, like many people who started, I continue to push through and improve without becoming a top competitor, CrossFit legend, or record holder. Dare I say that we actually do get hooked on the very thing that scares us away sometimes - the continuous opportunities for improvement, and the continuous ways in which we can observe ourselves and others become better and better with each obstacle we overcome.What you'll learn in this book:

• Chapter 1 The Why: We're all new in the beginning
• Chapter 2 The Who and the What: A few things to expect and a few things to help you get better
• Chapter 3 The What Ifs: Addressing common concerns
• Chapter 4 The What Now: A toolbox for mind and body
• Chapter 5 The How To: Glossary of Terms
• Chapter 6 The Where From: Quotes and sayings
• Let your journey begin I can tell you what it is like to step into your local CrossFit gym for the first time, but I will refrain. The experience you have when entering that space for the first time, which will include a completely new set of sounds, smells, and energy, is all yours. All I can say without feeling too guilty for sharing, is that it was, without a doubt, the thing that taught my arrow to fly. Fast, loud, heavy and hard.Thank you for your consideration by reading this description, and I hope the information here serves you well on your journey
