Multiply fitness results by keeping workouts random

When getting in shape, sometimes mixing it up can yield great results - CrossFit is one example. Here's how it works.

What Is CrossFit?

CrossFit is exactly that: crossing various exercises to maximize one's workout. Created by Greg Glassman, a coach and former gymnast, CrossFit is a core strength and conditioning program. The philosophy is to keep workouts varied, almost random.

CrossFit is not a specialized fitness program. Rather, it focuses on competency in 10 fitness domains: cardiovascular and respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, co-ordination, agility, balance and accuracy.
