What is CrossFit?

CrossFit workouts are comprised of constantly varied functional movements (like pushing, pulling, squatting, lifting, running) executed at high intensity. The workouts themselves are completely scalable, which means that a new participant and a CrossFit junkie can complete the same workout with changes in load and intensity. These workouts attack the main issues regular gym workouts are often accused of or cause: lack of time, motivation, functionality, and boredom.

FRAN

FRAN - a CrossFit benchmark workout - FRAN ON YOUTUBE

Three rounds, 21-15- and 9 reps, for time of:
95 pound Thruster
Pull-ups

Today was FRAN. To be quite honest, I was looking forward to this WOD for some time. The first time i met FRAN, I remember vividly the ill effects and pain that ensued days after; not being able to lift my arms, struggling to put on a shirt, and completely sleep deprived because it was impossible to find a comfortable position to sleep in. She simply kicked my ass.

Today, that wasn't the case. I beat her (insert innuendo here). I dropped my time 3m18s to a new PR of 5m38s. She didn't go down without a fight though. After the WOD, I immediately began to see stars and collapsed on the ground for a few minutes while i gasped for air. On the way home, we pulled over to the side of the street where I took a short stroll and dry heaved a few times before regaining composure. Good times.
