big crossfit post!
Hello again all, daedala suggested I post about my experiences with Crossfit, so here goes!
I had seen mentions of Crossfit on the internet in my fitness-related Googlings, but I still wasn't quite sure what it was, and I sure didn't know anybody who did it. I discovered that there was a Box (that's what Crossfit folks call a gym) within a reasonable distance of where I live in Chicago. At the time, they were renting a storefront space. You could look in the windows and see some pullup bars, a couple of squat racks, and a little herd of kettlebells sitting on the black rubber floor mats. I went by there several times before I got the courage to actually go in, meet the coach, and get the explanation of just what the heck this was all about.
