One thing you have to love about CrossFit is the camraderie it develops. Strangers show up to a gym where they are told what to do (usually by me!) and then go through the hardship that is a CrossFit workout- sweating, grunting, hurting, throwing up, etc. You go through the WOD for yourself, but not by yourself . You get stronger, faster, more confident, and more comfortable with your gymmates. It reminds me of movies or tv shows about the military. The growth you develop as a person because of shared labor, seeing yourself and others "fail forward". It's pretty cool and it shows that you increase a lot more than just the 10 General Physical Skills.
So a big thanks to you all for making the gym such a great place to be.

It's weird how the official WODs and CF affiliate programming usually match up. Today's WOD is "Helen". We did that Monday when the official WOD was "Tabata Something Else". We did "Tabata This!" that Saturday prior. Last Friday's official WOD was 50-40-30-20-10 ring dips and pullups. We did 30 muscle-ups for time OR 120 dips and 120 pullups the day before. Is Foundation CrossFit ahead of the curve?! Maybe, maybe not, but this goes to show that Coach Glassman is the dude.
