CrossFit - My New Addiction

What is CrossFit? "CrossFit is the principal strength and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide.

Our program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. Our specialty is not specializing. Combat, survival, many sports, and life reward this kind of fitness and, on average, punish the specialist.

The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience. We’ve used our same routines for elderly individuals with heart disease and cage fighters one month out from televised bouts. We scale load and intensity; we don’t change programs."


This isn't actually "new" to me because I've been doing CrossFit since February of this year, but I am so in love with it at this moment in my life I felt I must mention it.

I HEART CrossFit! It challenges me mentally and physically and I have met the most amazing group of people. They really are my 2ND family. I look to them for support and friendship and it helps so much know that they are going through the same emotions and feelings I am. We all help each other get through our WOD's (workout of the day), and I have never before been in an environment that was so immensely supportive and caring. The best part, is that my husband does it with me. It is so awesome to share this with him.

If you need to find me, try the gym.
