Do you remember the first time you did a CrossFit workout? You may have felt your first attempt was an abject failure, but you came back. In time, your work capacity improved. We all start somewhere.
Remember the first time you did an unscaled workout, got your first pull-up, or your first body weight overhead squat. CrossFit gives you the chance for firsts, which leads to increased confidence and ability.
Everyone started exactly where they were. It sounds redundant, but it helps to remember where you came from. The world’s fittest people may be gifted athletes, but they train hard and dare to test themselves against steel and the iron wills of others.
CrossFit itself started small, with a single post on a nascent internet. In 2007 the CrossFit Games came into being. Only four years later, the games are now televised on ESPN2 and the winners receive $250,000. Every Wednesday you can watch the games on ESPN2. Get inspired!

While visiting the Ring o’ Brodgar on Orkney Island north of Scotland, Turbo made an important archeological discovery–the neolithic Orkadians were actually CrossFitters!
There has been much debate about the purpose of neolithic circle henges. The REAL purpose of the stone henges becomes quickly apparent to a CrossFit coach. Here we have two examples ANCIENT CrossFitters–Turbo on his 40th Birthday doing a WOD at a CrossFit gym built between 2500-2000 B.C.
30 Snatches for time (95/135#)

Can you continue for thirty minutes? Twenty minutes? How about 10? Post results to comments. If you fall behind the clock keep going for thirty minutes and see how many rounds you can complete.
If you’ve finished all 30 minutes of the workout before, add +1 to each exercise, i.e., 6 pull-ups, 11 push-ups, and 16 squats each minute, and see if you can go the full thirty minutes. We’ve seen +3. Any +4′s?
