Diablo CrossFit

What Is CrossFit?

Started as a maverick gym in Santa Cruz, CrossFit has spread worldwide, becoming the principal strength & conditioning program for police academies and tactical op's teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, & hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide. Why? Because CrossFit works...FAST.

CrossFit delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. CrossFit's specialty is not specializing. Daily life, like many sports and professions, (and even combat) requires broad levels of fitness. CrossFit's program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience. The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind.

Dedication
by Jon Gilson, Again Faster

You think you know pain, but you have no idea. The heart thumping, chest expanding, lactic acid burn of your last workout was a walk through the meadow.

Somewhere, there's a guy who did it in half the time it took you. He suffered. Plasma forced its way into his lungs, causing him to hack on repeat. He choked down bile halfway through, and ended on his back, pupils dilated to the size of dimes....

Great article (again) by John Gilson. The nervous feeling before a CF workout is like nothing else I've experienced.

So who signed up for the games during Round 2? Is the consensus driving up on Saturday morning? Any thoughts?

Bryan and Carry - Great work and great photo! I like how you both look blurry while the rest of the photo is clear (meaning you're moving too fast for the camera).

When was the last time I tried for max pullups? Since my current max is 7 reps, I try for max pretty much every time I do them! :-)

Jorgy - sign me up for a 2008 Games t-shirt. I'm driving down Saturday morning. I'm signed up as a spectator, so I'm not sure yet if I'm staying for Sunday. What are people's plans for staying over on Saturday night?
