What is CrossFit All About?

The CrossFit prescription is “constantly varied, high-intensity, functional movement.” Functional movements are universal motor recruitment patterns; they are performed in a wave of contraction from core to extremity; and they are compound movements—i.e., they are multi-joint. They are natural, effective, and efficient locomotors of body and external objects. But no aspect of functional movements is more important than their capacity to move large loads over long distances, and to do so quickly.

Saturday's Meals and Workout

Saturday's Workout:
There was no Crossfit class today so I made up my own workout. I warmed up with 5 minutes on the row machine.

Then did 5 rounds for time of:
15 (50 lb) dumbbell press on the fit ball
15 close grip pushups
100 jump ropes

I forgot to start the stopwatch so I didn't get a time. It was harder than I thought it would be. The pushups were actually the hardest part. By round 3 I was only able to do 5 at a time.
