What is CrossFit?

Response:
CrossFit is a workout program that was originally created by Greg Glassman in California. It focuses on high intensity constantly varied functional movements. People who do CrossFit go to CrossFit affiliated gyms to complete their workouts. The workouts are called WOD which stands for Workout Of the Day. These workouts vary in length, cardio intensity, and complexity of movements. CrossFit also combines elements of Olympic weightlifting, gymnastics, and traditional strength training. While CrossFit is an excellent way to get and stay in shape, it has received backlash from the media for the increased potential for injury that is also associated with the programming. Even with the media backlash, CrossFit has remained a popular syle of workout for those looking to get in shape.
