Crossfit most generally defined by three terms:

Constantly Varied

Functional Movement

Performed at a high intensity

The aim of CrossFit is to forge a broad, general, and inclusive fitness. We seek to build a program that would best prepare participants for any physical contingency—prepare them not only for the unknown but for the unknowable.

Our prescription to accomplish this goal is to:
• Master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Practice and train major lifts.
• Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense.
• Regularly learn and play new sports.
• Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat.
