Ride your own bike...

We've completed the 21 Day Primal Challenge!

To all who gave it a go, well done!  It is a good chance to assess how and what you eat, and to figure out how you want to maintain a healthy relationship with food and nutrition.

Here is a great article from the folks over at the Whole9 about moving beyond a paleo/primal challenge.  While written for folks who've just done the Whole30, it has a lot of great ideas and encouragement.

Check it out: RIDE YOUR OWN BIKE

CrossFit Games Open!

The Reebok CrossFit Games Open Competition registration opens February 1! 

CrossFit Chiang Mai will be an official CrossFit 2012 Games Affiliate for Thailand.


We will be hosting the CF Open workouts every Saturday, February 22 to March 25.

There will be one workout per week for 5 weeks, announced the week of the competition (usually on Wednesday). You will get a chance to practice the WOD and then compete on Saturday. Everyone will be able to participate.

We STRONGLY encourage everyone to register online for the Open so that CrossFit Chiang Mai is well represented!

Regionals - Asia Regionals in Seoul, Korea, May 4-6 

The top men and women from the Asia region will be invited to the Asia Regionals. Asia is a small region (but growing), and while competition is going to be strong, we’ve got a shot at getting someone to regionals! Especially for the women! If you make the Asia Regionals, CrossFit Chiang Mai will help send you to Korea!

CrossFit Games Worlds - July 15, 2012 

The CF Games Worlds are in California. Only the top 1-3 men and women in the Asia Region will advance to the Worlds. There will also be a team competition. Details coming on that!

Right now the CF Games site is in beta, but you can still sign up.

Go to here to register.
