*For Unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord...Luke 2:11
Why?
*There is none righteous, no not one...Romans 3:10
*For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God...Romans 3:23
*Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned..Romans 5:12
*But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us...Romans 5:8
*For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord...Romans 6:23
*That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation...Romans 10:9-10
*For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved...Romans 10:13
And that is the true meaning of Christmas...Merry Christmas, Militants!

Last week until Christmas. If anyone would like to purchase gift certificates they are only $40. Also, we will have team sign ups for the biggest loser/Valentines Day WOD contest. If you have any questions on what to eat please look up "Crossfit Zone Diet" and pull up the "Meal Plans" pdf files. Print it out and bring it to the gym and I will go over it with you. It's $20 a person for the contest. All money goes into a pot for the team that wins the biggest loser and the team that wins the WOD! So, sign up, it will be fun. Remember, what ever team you pick is the team you are on for both events and only members may join the contest so if you have anyone who would like to join us have them come and try us out. If you're thinking this is going to be difficult eating good at work because people bring junk food or won't support you, try starting a biggest loser at work and make it a money prize. That always gets people motivated.

Fantastic job today, Militants! Let me explain how the biggest loser challenge is going to work. It's a $20 buy in. All the money goes into the winners hat. But that will be split in two. The team of four that wins the biggest loser will win half of that pot of money. The other half will go to the team of four that wins the Valentines WOD. So don't just pick your team for the biggest loser, also pick your team to win the V-Day WOD. Members may only join the competition and remain members the whole time. The more you workout the more inches and weight you lose and the better shape you will be in for V-Day. Also, diet is just as important as working out. Everyone send me an e-mail so I can send you the Zone way of eating. Print it out and bring it to the gym and we will go over everything you need to know. The better you eat the better you feel and your weight will diminish faster. So, even if you don't think you are going to do the biggest loser challenge, join the money pot and see if your team wins the workout.
