I really thought about it last night: the Q word. Quitting. Stopping. Saying No mas.
Somewhere in the second round of D.T.,
I thought Just stop. It hurts too much. Say youre too old. Too tired. It doesnt feel right.
In all the CrossFit workouts Ive done over the last three years, none make me want to quit as much as D.T. I could deadlift until the proverbial paleo cows come home, but the hang power clean is my nemesis, and the push jerk is its brother. Id rather full squat clean everything and the push jerk wouldnt be so bad if it didnt have to come back down. But it does. And it crushes me.
But who would I be if I quit? Who would I be if I just sat down and watched the others march deeper into the fight, the pain, the struggle and I left them? How would I feel when they emerged on the other side tired, but happy, and triumphant?
I would be a lesser person. And I cant have that.
If I give up here, Ill give up in other parts of life. If I fail to do my best here, I will fail when other people need my best.
CrossFit is like life: Either youre someone who sees things through to the end, no matter how difficult or painful or hard or youre a quitter. Or a cheater. Or a liar. CrossFit can show your true colors in 15 mins with a barbell and a stopwatch.
The Japanese have an old belief that you have to see someone drunk to witness their true colors, but I think we have something better. Watch someone CrossFit: Its the ultimate truth serum.
Decide who you want to be in life and show that person to us on the gym floor. It really is that simple. Dont just tell us the truth. Show us. CrossFit.
CrossFit is the principal strength and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide.
Our program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. Our specialty is not specializing. Combat, survival, many sports, and life reward this kind of fitness and, on average, punish the specialist.
The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience. Weve used our same routines for elderly individuals with heart disease and cage fighters one month out from televised bouts. We scale load and intensity; we dont change programs.
The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind. Our terrorist hunters, skiers, mountain bike riders and housewives have found their best fitness from the same regimen.
