    CrossFit Hits The Wall Street Journal

    By acampo1 | February 20, 2008

    WSJ: Weightlifter’s Balancing Acts
    WSJ Picture

    While the mainstream media never gets it right when it comes to CrossFit, any attention is better than no attention at all. With that in mind, we point you to a recent Wall Street Journal article on workout trends that had this to say about CF training:

    CrossFit, a licensed brand of intense workout classes, prides itself on inflicting excruciating muscle pain on clients via handstand pushups, power lifts and abdominal exercises. Using simple gear like kettlebells, pullup bars and jump ropes, CrossFit instructors say they can make the fittest athletes buckle with routines that often call for dozens of repetitions. The company claims its clientele ranges from Navy Seals to investment bankers.

    To set the record straight, we don’t “pride ourselves on inflicting excruciating pain.” WE DO pride ourselves on helping our clients reach the greatest fitness levels of their lives. If the client happens to be, or aspires to be, an elite level athlete pushing through pain is an inevitable part of the journey. If you want to get in the best shape of your life, give us a call today. Your first week is free and we promise it works!
