Roots

CrossFit has it’s roots in the garage. Look at 99% of CrossFit boxes, they are nothing but big garages, it’s design echoes the simplistic, no BS structure of the program. For every CF box there’s liable to be quite a few more garage CrossFitters with nothing more than the bare essentials and a solid work ethic. They take pride in there stash and their anonymity.

I went back into the garage today for a workout. The garage is where I started crossfitting a few years ago; it’s where many crossfitters find the spark. I did “Mary”. I opened the door, turned up the music, pushed, pulled, blistered, ripped and PR’d. I hadn’t done a workout in the garage since I moved all of my equipment over to CF Seb and now CFSR. All that is left is a pull-up bar, 2 mats, a set of parallettes, and a chalk bucket. Plenty.

The old white board.
