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.

Today's WOD: "Time Trial"
100 x Push Ups For Time
Rest As Needed (no more than 10 minutes) ... Then
100 x Sit Ups For Time
Rest As Needed (no more than 10 minutes) ... Then
100 x Squats For Time

These are time trials and another baseline I'm tracking everyone's progress on. Not to mention it's a killer of WOD. You can do the exercises in any order. My recommendation is to do the exercise you have the hardest time with FIRST.

Push yourself on this to stay with a specific standard and DON'T change unless you ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO!!! If you do change your standard, then make sure you post # of reps (standard) and # of reps (standard). Example: Push Ups - 62 x Guy Push Ups & 38 x Girl Push Ups.

With Push Ups: WORK ON FULL RANGE OF MOTION ... CHEST TO GROUND & ELBOWS EXTENDED ON TOP!
