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.

Mitchel gets a personal record by repping out 185lb deadlifts (Husband Mike provides vigorous encouragement).

Workout:

Move as much weight as possible as far as possible in 20 minutes.

Examples for exercises: Farmer carry, waiter walks, shoulder carry, weighted vests, medicine ball throw, sled drag, even tire flips, etc.

Multiply the total distance traveled for each exercise to the weight moved (your bodyweight doesn't count). Add up each exercise for your 'score'

Example: 100lb farmer walk, 100m, 2 times. Plus a 400m sandbag carry with 50lbs added would be 100 x 100 x 2 + 400 x 50 = 40,000 lb.m in 20 minutes.

Ugh, I'm tired.

jj-- I'm in for doing it Thanksgiving morning, but if I win with Bryan and Stav missing, it will feel a little empty. If I lose without them there, it will be that much more humiliating-- my reputation as "that fast guy who can't lift much" will be forever tarnished.

The WOD today was great. My forearms are already burning/ I can hardly write thanks to tire flipping!

More room in the Shed after today's work day. Thanks to everyone who helped: Nick!!, Donna, Mark, Jorgy (with a cast, no less!), Jenny.

Special thanks to JJ & Nick who stayed so long they were late to their own birthday party.

Hey guys. Just wanted to say that Bryan did you proud! Got some pics of him doing Fran. Missed pictures of his muscle up but saw him rock it out. =]
