This week I am recommending Cross Fit.  This is a site that I was introduced to a couple of years back and one that I am consistently using for workout routines.   According to their site “Cross Fit is the principal strength and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide.”  What makes their workouts so great is that they are adaptable to everybody by scaling back individual workouts when needed.  Whether you’re a tri-athlete, weight lifter, beginner or just someone looking to stay in shape, Cross Fit offers new work outs on a daily basis that can be modified based upon individual need.  One more reason I recommend the site can be attributed to the fact that they honor those that have served our country and have fallen in the line of duty by naming their most elite workouts after these heroes.  The site offers new workouts 5 days a week with 2 rest days, which makes it really easy to schedule your workouts for the week.  This site has grown tremendously in its short existence, over the years Cross Fit Centers have been popping up all around our nation, including 2 here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. To check out Cross Fit, simply go to http://www.crossfit.com/.
