Hey BayWay Crew, You’ve probably heard the phrase, “It’s easier to keep the ball rolling than to start the ball rolling.” When it comes to fitness, this couldn’t be more true. Momentum is your best friend. Once you’ve built the habit of showing up and putting in the work, it’s much easier to keep going than it is to stop and start all over again. Here are three simple ways to keep your ball rolling and stay consistent at the gym: 1. Book Your Classes Like Non-Negotiable Appointments Life gets busy, but treating your workouts as appointments you can’t skip keeps you accountable. Plan your gym schedule each week, just like you would a meeting or a doctor’s visit. You’ll thank yourself later when you see the progress you’ve made from consistent effort. (this also means do not cherry pick workouts lol) 2. Celebrate Small Wins Consistency doesn’t mean being...

At BayWay CrossFit, we’ve seen it time and time again: people complicate nutrition. They think they need to overhaul their entire life to eat healthier, and in doing so, they quickly get overwhelmed and fall off track. But what if we told you that improving your nutrition doesn’t have to be complicated? It’s not about drastic changes—it’s about making small, strategic shifts that create long-term success. We call this approach the 2mm Shift. The Long Game of Nutrition Nutrition is a long-term game. You didn’t get to where you are now by eating poorly over the past month. Most likely, your current habits have developed over years. So, instead of trying to change everything overnight, we start with one tiny change—a 2mm shift. Just like in CrossFit, small, consistent efforts over time lead to significant progress. And this shift? It begins with breakfast. The Breakfast Shift: Start Your Day Right...

At BayWay CrossFit, we know that life is busy. Everyone has work, kids with extracurriculars, family commitments—you name it. But here’s the truth: time is not an excuse; it’s a matter of priority. The real challenge lies in your willingness to make time for your fitness. The easiest way to make time for yourself? Plan for it. You already know your work schedule and your kids’ activities. If you can plan your meetings and practices, why not plan your workouts too? I’ve been going to my kids’ practices lately, and I can’t help but notice that many parents are caught in a cycle of inactivity. It’s not that they don’t care—it’s that they haven’t made time for themselves. But as parents, we never want to find ourselves in a position where we can’t physically support our kids—whether today, tomorrow, a year from now or even 15 years later. Prioritizing your...

Staying Fit as a Dad: More Than Just Workouts Being a dad is a full-time job, but that doesn’t mean we should neglect taking care of ourselves. For me, staying fit is about more than just hitting the gym—it’s about being present for my kids, physically and mentally. I’ve found two major reasons why staying fit as a dad has become so important to me, and I hope this resonates with other dads out there. 1. Being Able to Play with My Kids There’s nothing better than getting out and playing with my kids. Whether it’s running around at the park, shooting hoops, or just kicking a soccer ball around, these are the moments I cherish. Right now, I take my 10- and 7-year-old to practice a couple of times a week. Even though I haven’t helped much on the field, I’m happy that I can if needed. The last...
