The entire point of CrossFit is to train for what we call General Physical Preparedness or GPP for short.
What that means is that we test all different types of training modalities in order to create a body that can respond to all different types of physical stress. We want you to be able to live your life and do the things you want to do. Whether that’s run a 5k, pick up a box off the ground, or if someone grabs you, you can get away. Anything physical we want you to be able to perform at a high capacity of that. Which is why we do gymnastics, kettlebells, weightlifting, body weight movements and traditional cardio to give you all different types of responses.
When you have good GPP life gets easier and isn’t that the goal?
This past weekend we had quite a few of our members do a Spartan race. It was something like 4 miles and 20+ obstacles. Now this may or may not sound like a big deal to you, but for many of these clients in a year or so they went from doing nothing physical to completing a 4 mile race and 20+ obstacles. To me that’s amazing!
I’m so proud to have a program that prepares people to do things they want to to do.
I’m also really really proud of the hard work everyone puts in everyday, whether it’s to lose 20lbs or run a spartan race, thanks so much for putting the work in and getting it done!
Great job CFB family!
