Everyone wants to do Butterfly Pull Ups, but can’t seem to develop them. Here is a great video I found that will help.
Learn how to do the Butterfly Kipping Pull-up from Jeremy Kinnick. We recommend that you have 5 strict pull-ups and regular kipping pull-ups before attempting to learn butterfly using this method.
This video is also posted under the new “Technique” tab on the website.

This is probably the best video I’ve seen about what the Paleo Diet is, why grains are bad for you, etc.. Many of you that train here, have already adopted a Paleo Diet or have begun to, and are seeing tremendous results in weight loss and increase in energy levels. The individuals who did the best on our Body Transformation Challenge, utilized a Paleo Diet. If you wan to learn more about the Paleo Diet, you can purchase Robb Wolf’s book, The Paleo Solution at any book store or you can pick one up here at the gym. Or if you want to dive right in and start cooking Paleo meals, I highly recommend Sarah Fragoso’s Cookbook, Everyday Paleo. This can also be purchased at any bookstore or here at the gym. Enjoy!

Ever wondered how your times in workouts compared to the rest of the CrossFit WORLD? It’s AWESOME! Even though I’m not competing to go to the games, I LOVE that each week that this competition goes on that I can see exactly how I did, and how I compare to the rest of the WORLD of CrossFitters!!
I invite you all to check it out and to register(www.games.crossfit.com)… it may be worth the $20 just so that you can see how you compare to the world!!
By the way, if you are registered, you MUST enter your OWN score by logging into the web site, indicating that you did the workout at Walnut CrossFit, and submitting your score. We will validate it if you did, in fact, enter it correctly.

Have you ever set out to create something brand new for yourself? A project, a goal, a challenge, a job? I mean really create it, exactly the way it would excite you.
I’m talking about taking the opportunity to dare to dream. What would something look like if it looked exactly how you wanted it to? Are you willing to say “that is how it is going to be!” and then work yourself out to do what it takes to get there? Would you dare? If you really take a look at what stops you, it’s your past. Before you had a past you never worried about failing. Try this — “If my life could look like anything, I would…” Now, can it look like that? If you’re answer is no, notice that it’s not about anything real, but about what you think is doable based on what you have done up to now.
It takes something, no doubt. It takes commitment and determination. It takes courage and time. It takes asking for help and it takes little steps. It takes constantly contending with that little voice that said, “I warned you…,” and the opinions of the people around you. But what do you want? A life created by the opinions of others? Or a life of sheer exhilaration and excitement?
What would it be if it could be anything?
