    I started two months ago on my birthday. It's been great, so far. In the beginning I would always look at the workout and say "I can't possibly do that," but I'd do it anyway. Now I look and know I can do it, which is a good feeling. I've gotten stronger much faster than I expected.

    Why not start today? You'll be one day closer to your goal.

    Good for you, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. I started six months ago and have seen some major changes and did my first Spartan race in September. I will share one thing I’ve learned about CrossFit...when you look at the workout and think “That doesn’t look so bad”, be prepared because it’s ALWAYS bad. Just carrying degrees of “Oh god make it stop”. Then there is such a great feeling of accomplishment when you get through it. That is what brings me back there three days a week. That and the improved altitude of my butt.

    Good for you! I started 3 weeks ago. I’m really enjoying it so far. I’m 51, obese, and have never excercized regularly. I love the variety CF offers. And the community. The coaches are very concerned about proper form and scale the WODs to my level until I can execute the movements correctly. Everyone has been super friendly and encouraging. I’ll be your virtual CF buddy!
