Are you fit, or CrossFit?

Recently Outside Magazine posted its most fit athlete of the year...one who is an LSD (Long Slow Distance) addict! This guy is good at riding his bike for many mile, but is unlikely to be able to carry the bike or lift it over his head. Therefore, is he really the most fit man in America? HELL NO!! Outside Magazine is clueless when it comes to fitness.

As a CrossFitter...you are elite! We have many athletes who have completed marathons and tri's that are able to flip tires, perform burpees etc....for time. They are far more qualified for this title. Remember guys, you are participating in a program that the general media is afraid of. Why? Because it works...and it is hard! CrossFit is the cutting edge of fitness and it is spreading like wild fire. Just wait...in 6 months it will be the talk of Cool Springs.

Hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday weekend.

Cheers!
