Crossfit Article

Found this article on T-Nation. Thought some might be interested.

Throughout the article I kept expecting the author to take a mostly negative turn to what I think to be a fantastic workout concept for my world. Agree or Disagee with statements that were made, I was happily impressed and suprised to read the last three paragraphs.

Instead of making a new thread, figured I would just ad to this one. Anyone check out today's WOD picture. Today is a rest day, but the bottom picture caught my eye. Good Job Professionals.

Edit: Tried to link the picture, but it turned out too small to see. Would be better to check it out at www.crossfit.com

are those SF guys who have their own CF gym and do cross fit workouts?

The banner has the maroon beret also. So I think there are airborne members in there as well. The insignias, (shields), on the banner are different groups. (Not really pertinent, just admiring the banner.) The caption under the picture says CF seminar then list Fort Campbell. Plus the three people on the bottom left look like CF instructors.

My guess is they are at a gym on Fort Campbell. Never been to Fort Campbell, but the Army bases I have been on, tend to have more than one gym. So it might be a smaller gym they use for CF stuff. I'm sure a QP or an Airborne member will answer that though.

Figured I would post the picture since CF has been discussed in here recently, and incase anyone who was in it might of missed it. That, and because I thought that banner was pretty well done.

If you will notice, there is the dagger and crossed arrows behind the maroon beret. This represents the support elements (non-tabbed) of Group.

There is a fairly large following of CF amongst all the SF Groups.

Don't know the blonde, but the other two are the owners of Crossfit Fairfax (northern Virginia). Professional firefighters who alternate days at the gym and at the firehouse. Good people.
