We get asked "why do you do this?" a lot. Especially from people who have never been athletes, or at the least exercise on any kind of regular basis. It's actually a complex answer, because each of us love CrossFit for different reasons. The 'challenge' of it is usually an answer, the 'camaraderie' is another. But there's more.

Why do you CrossFit? I love CrossFit for one simple reason. It works. And I totally agree with Adrian Bozman.

This was a good one. A lot like the Filthy Fifty, this workout left us squirming on the ground like dying squid... most of us anyway. However, this was another super fun unloaded workout. Thanks CFHQ!

Great job everyone! This was a tough workout on a humid day. Good job holding on until the bitter end, which was one of the better bitter ends we've seen in a while. That is a good feeling, isn't it? Yes it is, and that's a good buzz as well.

That's a big part of why we do it. The workouts that intimidate us the most are invariably the ones we feel best upon completion. It might land us on floor-lock for a few minutes, and that's ok, we've earned it.

Workouts like this one are always easier when there are other athletes in the class pushing each other on, making the urge to stop and rest go away for a few more seconds. If they weren't around- and you're rolling solo, stopping to rest would be a lot easier. Another big part of why we do it.

The CrossFit community is another. You won't find another like it anywhere.
