There is no I in TEAM

Katie and Janet

Crossfit works for many reasons, one of which is the team environment. Whether a one person WOD where we’re cheering each other on, breathless, in the middle of the suck or a team WOD where we share the load and my shortcomings are made up for by your strengths and vice versa, there is hardly a WOD we would want to get through alone. The teamwork fostered in the gym branches into our work and home lives building stronger bonds between people and getting more work done. Todays WOD will make you thankful you have someone by your side…
