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 specialising. Combat, survival, many sports, and life reward this kind of fitness and, on average, punish the specialist.

The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind. Skiers, mountain bike riders and housewives have found their best fitness from the same regimen.

WOD INSTRUCTIONS

These WODs (Workout Of the Day) are provided as an example of the CrossFit model. If you choose to follow these workouts please do so with commonsense.

Familiarise yourself with the movements found in these workouts by refering to the CrossFit exercise guide and please read these terms before proceeding.

If you wish to learn more about these exercises, you are welcome to come and train with us at any time, contact us for more information.

Be sensible and always exercise to your level not anyone else's.

Rest Day

Another great article by Lisbeth Darsh, Head Trainer/Owner, CrossFit Watertown in CT.

I refuse to become one of the walking undead. The unwell. The quitters, the complainers, the crybabies. Those who say"Oh,well, I'm fat" and just accept it. Those who don't even try. Those who won't get off the couch and on the road to anything but the drive-through. I am so done with them. Read the rest here.
