Crossfit has been an amazing influence on both my personal and business life. I’ve never been in such good shape as I am now and I owe much of my success to Crossfit and the influence its community has had on me. As many Crossfitters will tell you, following the prescribed WODs (workouts of the day) as laid out on the .com or other affiliate sites is what makes it so much fun. Not only are you competing with your own goals, psychological and neurological limits, but you can measure yourself against others from around the world and compare your times, loads and work with theirs.
“J.T.” is definitely one of the toughest Crossfit W.O.Ds (Workouts Of the Day) that I’ve been personally challenged to complete. On paper it looks okay, but when you get into the actual workout it becomes apparent that it is a total body blast! After all the 21, 15 and 9 rep progression scheme used in many Crossfit fundamental workouts is something that I’m used to now. But when you’re doing hand-stand push ups, followed by ring dips, and then immediately into push ups… well, you get the drift.
