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: Team WOD As RX'd
"HIT THE DECK"
Spades - Push Ups
Clubs - Squats
Diamonds - Sit Ups
Hearts - Lunges
Facecards = 1 Burpee

In groups of 2 or more athletes, each team will have their own deck of cards (toss Jokers out). Time starts and each team will flip over the first card of their deck. The suit of that card will tell the team which exercise to do and # will give the # of reps to complete. ALL teammembers must finish the reps/exercise before the team can flip the next card. Ex: Chad, Don & Ang (Team 1) flips a "9 of Diamonds", all three must do 9 Sit Ups. Once the last individual does his/her 9th sit up, then they flip the next card. Time stops when last teammember completes the last rep of the last card in the deck. Total of 232 Reps!
