If you have time, please watch the videos below. Represented are some pretty different examples of athleticism and fitness, but they all share some common traits–strength, power, speed, endurance, muscle stamina, agility, explosivity, among others. Not to mention the psychological traits–focus, drive, discipline, determination, among others. Exactly the traits that CrossFit trains and engenders.
In CrossFit, we talk a lot about bringing high level training to the masses… about taking explosive functional training out of the exclusive realms of the university sports programs’ strength and conditioning centers, out of the pro sports’ training camps, out of the Olympic training halls and making it available to all… about how a guy or girl training in a garage or small box can achieve levels of fitness hitherto unknown in such egalitarian settings.
And we have been very successful. Now I think it is time to bring CrossFit to the university strength and conditioning centers, the pro sport training camps, the Olympic training halls. Look at the videos below and find someone who doesn’t need more speed, power, stamina, endurance, explosivity. And nothing delivers like CrossFit.
CrossFit is strong medicine. I think people, to a certain extent even CrossFit itself, are just now beginning to realize just how strong it is. We, all of us, are in the vanguard. Help spread the word.
I just want to say that I feel as though I was robbed today. I was under the impression Coach Quinn would be wearing Sumo attrie for the duration of the WOD – you know, as a means to motivate us to do even better. Other than that, excellent workout and thanks Coach Quinn.
Yeah…you know what I think I read in the crossfit manual that the coach must train us without his shirt on…you read it wrong Lynds. Great workout Baby Boy!
Sigh…. I miss the gym! I have had no time this past week-is do do anything other than work- UGH! Didn’t know I was addicted to olympic lifts till I couldn’t do them anymore!
Up at 4AM in bed at 10PM- and no booze!
BTW- Never though I’d read the following:
UNBELIEVABLE BADMINTON RALLY- Rachel wanting everyone topless, yes, Badminton- No.

haha sounds like this morning crowd is getting more and more out of control!
ed – tried running in my fivefingers the other day: it felt incredible, like running on clouds! Was running 400m x 7 sprints at various speeds w/ Lega to work on setting a pace. Didnt get the really rough contact w/ the pavement that I expected with wearing something so thin and flimsy, I really felt faster too. cant wait for the weather to really level out so I can run in them more. your thoughts?
