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.

Jonesy's WOD











Tonight was the first day of Jonesy's CrossFit sessions. Incredible!!!

To be brief, he spoke about the start of CrossFit, how it's grown since 2001, and the reason it's caught on like wild fire ... (hint: it's not a fad). Afterwards, we spoke in detail on the functional movements of the the air squat, push up, sit up and arch rocks. All followed by the WOD (Workout Of the Day).

10 Push Ups
10 Squats

WOD: 3 Rds
Run 400 M
21 Sit Ups
15 Squats

After recovering from the WOD and the 0 degree weather, Jonesy and I did some ring work ... friggin' kicked my a$$!
