The Work out of the Day (WOD). We tailor
the workout of the day to the individual by scaling the load, reps, as well as the exercises. We do encourage 100% effort
for every workout. We start each work out with a specific warm up, most commonly referred to as "everyone else's
workout." Then we begin the prescribed WOD.

The CrossFit Games and the Phenominal Athletes just keep getting better! The 2010 Games are finishing and nothing
was left to chance by the athletes. This was an amazing show of athleticism, skill, and the heart and soul of champions.
Congratulations to all competitors that qualified in their respective sectionals,
regionals, and went on to the 2010 CrossFit Games, Individual and Affiliate Cup. Browse through all the details of the competitons and the competitors at the Games Official Website.
1. 2.
3. 4. 1. Affiliate Cup Challenge #3 2. Men's Handstand Push ups on
Rings & 205# Cleans 3. Women's final event (too much to list here) 4. Men's
Masters 'Fran!' (Thanks to CrossFit for allowing the use of these photos)
What are the CrossFit Games?
The CrossFit Games are the ultimate
test of fitness. It's a grueling three-day competition in which the world's fittest athletes compete in a variety
of workouts. What are the workouts? Each year they change, and the details of them are not announced until a couple days before
the event. This year the final event wasn't announced until thirty seconds before "3-2-1-GO!" This means that
all year long, the athletes are training for a competition whose format is 'unknown and unknowable' - one of the underpinnings
of the CrossFit methodology. (info and photos courtesy of www.CrossFit.com)
CrossFit Journal - Free issue
Check out Operation Phoenix! This extraordinary effort was initiated by CrossFit Founder Greg Glassman. This CrossFit initiative aims to
raise the necessary funds to equip the entire United States Marine Corps with functional fitness equipment to increase combat
preparedness, reduce injury, and strengthen unit cohesion. This will be accomplished through non-profit sales, corporate sponsorships,
and individual donations. Every penny raised will go directly to "America's Fighting Force," the USMC.
