Alright, it’s about time we get some CrossFit Winnipeg T-shirts made. The question is: what do we put on them? Since I’m not the creative type, I’m going to let you guys do the work. Here are a few to get you started. Please let us know if you like any of these and post any new ideas you might have. If you come up with the winning slogan, you get a free t-shirt.
Some ideas from other affiliates and the CrossFit message boards:
Be alive. Be very alive. – Mark Rippetoe
Strong people are harder to kill than weak people, and more useful in general. – Mark Rippetoe
My Workout Can Beat Up Your Workout
If you ask me what I am doing one more time . . . I am going to make you do it with me.
No, you can’t work in. I’m doing this for time.
I’d rather be stronger than I look

Work like you don’t need money,
Love like you’ve never been hurt,
dance like no one’s watching,
and workout until you puke.
Or, if you want to go with something a little classier, here are some quotes and proverbs. Some are a little long, but we can edit as needed.
Whatever you do, do with all your might. – Cicero
No rest is worth anything except the rest that is earned. -Jean Paul
Willing is not enough; we must do. – Goethe
Specialization is for insects. – Although a CrossFit saying, it is from sci-fi author Robert A. Heinlein. Heinlein also coined the term TANSTAAFL (there ain’t no such thing as a free lunch)
There is no better way to fight weakness than with strength. Once the mind and body have been awakened to their true potential, its impossible to turn back. – Henry Rollins
Nothing will work unless you do.– John Wooden
It’s the same each time with progress. First they ignore you, then they say you’re mad, then dangerous, then there’s a pause and then you can’t find anyone who disagrees with you.—Tony Benn
Obsessed is just a word the lazy use to describe the dedicated. – Unknown
Today I will do the things that other people won’t, so tomorrow I can do the things that other people can’t. – Unknown
From the pain comes the dream. – Peter Gabriel
I will act now. I will act now. I will act now. Henceforth, I will repeat these words each hour, each day, everyday, until the words become as much a habit as my breathing, and the action which follows becomes as instinctive as the blinking of my eyelids. With these words I can condition my mind to perform every action necessary for my success. I will act now for now is all I have. Tomorrow is the day reserved for the labor of the lazy. I am not lazy. Tomorrow is the day when the failure will succeed. I am not a failure. I will act now. Success will not wait. If I delay, success will become wed to another and lost to me forever. This is the time. This is the place. I am the person. – Og Mandino
Only the weak attempts to accomplish what he knows he can already achieve. – Stella Juarez
Don’t ask for a light load, but rather ask for a strong back.– Unknown
Facta, non verba
Deeds, not words
