That's the question I get most of the time I tell people what I do to workout. I'm from Florida originally and it's spread like wildfire down there, apparently not so much north of the mason dixon. This is the main website - crossfit.com - But from my perspective it's the only thing that has worked for me over the years. In short, it's usually a fairly short workout and uses a lot of muscles at once. Often known as "muscle confusion" this keeps your muscles guessing from day to day. Obviously this isn't a very technical explanation, but it's a simple (and probably girly) way of putting it. Both of the CrossFit gyms I have been a member of follow an OPT program as well. - optexperience.com - Check it out if you have never heard of it.
So what's the bottom line? CrossFit is something that works for me because I enjoy it and go 4-5 days a week. If you find something, anything, even if it's power walking that you can stick to 4-5 days a week. DO IT!
Since I sliced my finger on my fun new knife, I have been limited on lifting. I want it to heal properly and quickly. So I changed my workout up a little.
WOD (workout of the day)
800m Run
40-30-20-10
Sit-ups with ab mat
Wall Balls with 14lb Ball
800m Run
