  • Just started crossfit last month ... LOVE IT! I am never pushed "past my limit," in fact, I stop when I feel the need and get the encouragement when I do (Good to know your body and it's limits).

  • Thanks, Everyone!
  • Wow - this post is great. I will share when I am more experienced and have something worthy.
