What's your weekly goal? My goal for this blog is to get 50 new exercises up on the site, 2 tutorials and and 2 killer articles. Let me know what you want and I will get it done. I have my ideas already, but any exercises or things you want discussed or demonstrated and I will attack!

Thank you ,

Matt

My weekly goal is to stick to my diet and get enough sleep.

I would like either an overhead press or push press exercise tutorial.

Goals are to increase the weight I lift, get fitter and get the best me I can get.

@Matt

I love all your work (exercises and tutorials). All of your stuff could help me tremendously.

Alex, awesome stuff, thank you. I do recommend you get specific with your goals, though. You say you want to get fitter, stronger and be the best you can be. What exactly does that mean?

How about increasing your squat by 20 pounds by September 30? How will you do that?
Your answer is the key to your goal.

Being the best is just to vague, get specific and describe exactly what you want and what you are willing to sacrifice to get it.

1. Have my first training session in a month (sled drags)
2. Start doing chores I´ve had to neglect since I had my injury (like cleaning)
3. Program 2-3 weeks ahead for CrossFit Uppsala

Just been throught three rough weeks when it comes to workload, so goals for this week is to work less, relax more and get cortisol levels down a bit. It will be goals for the week after this too.

Another goal right now is to train outside as much as possible, since summer's coming to an end and I will be sad when it gets darker and regret if I work out inside. Example is to try to keep conditioning towards "summer" activities like running/swimming in the sea - there's time for metcon and rower later during the year.

Hey Matt,

of course great point you mentioned. Setting specific goals is what I should have to make.

1. Getting the Clean working (flexibility and technique) and get the strength to Clean 100 kg at the end of the year.
2. Some other strength goals for the rest of 2011.

Back Squat 150 kg 1 RM
Front Squat 130 kg 1 RM
Bench Press 120 kg 1 RM
Deadlift 200 kg 1 RM
Press 80 kg 1 RM
Snatch 80 kg 1 RM

3. And I would like to participate in the 2012 Crossfit Open / Sectionals if possible.

I think I could achieve all the goals with proper programming and training my weak points. Your program helps tremendously.
And I have to add conditioning and technique work in my training because of the needs of Crossfit.

Nutrition and recovery are the other two staples. I will stretch more and get the nutrition done. Less cheating, more healthy eating.

We will see at the end of the year and next year if I had achieved my goals. I will do my best.
