World-Class Health in 100 Words

Modern medicine might define health as the absence of disease, but that’s not a good enough definition for us. So we’re offering our own, in a format that many CrossFitters will recognize. (See full episode description for text.)

100 Words of Health

Create an environment in which it’s easy to eat well, move often, sleep lots, think deeply, & create real connections. Be intentional; don’t just hope it happens. Chase what sets your heart on fire.

Seek out challenges, feedback, and opportunities to serve something bigger than yourself. Respect your breath. Control your attention. Spend time outside. Recognize that health is the result of choices & luck.

Focus on what you can control. Avoid defining it by a single number. Avoid fads & gurus. Avoid complaining & people who do. Optimize everything for consistency & sustainability. Treat yourself like someone who matters.
