"Our estimation is that we have three times the number of CrossFit affiliates that have carved 100 lb. off of a member than have sent someone to the Games. So what's the real work in the box? It's the good stuff." —CrossFit Founder Greg Glassman

Via @dragon_athletic: @khurram999 has so far dropped over 100lbs and still going strong. 👌 #CrossFit

What is fitness?

“As is often the case for major scientific breakthroughs, Coach Glassman’s definition of fitness is elegant in its simplicity: Work done per unit time is power. When that work is done by a person, we are discussing human power output; i.e., human performance. Therefore, it is logical to define an individual’s capacity to do physical work in a given amount of time as his or her fitness for that specified time domain. A broad and generally inclusive definition of fitness must include all possible exercise durations and modalities. Thus, it is perfectly tenable to define fitness as work capacity over broad time and modal domains. The definition is rigorous and scientifically sound.

“Returning to the definitions available from the exercise-science literature, we see no such rigor. Instead, we see the term ‘fitness’ used most frequently without having first been defined, and when we do see a definition, it is fraught with fallacy and therefore not particularly useful.”
