What is CrossFit?
CrossFit 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.
Our program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. Our specialty is not specializing.
Combat, survival, many sports, and life reward this kind of fitness and, on average, punish the specialist.
The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed
individual regardless of experience. We’ve used our same routines for elderly individuals with heart disease and
cage fighters one month out from televised bouts. We scale load and intensity; we don’t change programs.
The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind. Our terrorist hunters, skiers,
mountain bike riders and housewives have found their best fitness from the same regimen. Thousands of
athletes worldwide have followed our workouts posted daily on this site and distinguished themselves in
combat, the streets, the ring, stadiums, gyms and homes.

Through measurable organic changes in the body, training improves
endurance, stamina, strength, and flexibility. Improvements in coordination,
agility, balance, and accuracy come through the practice of activities that
improve performance through changes in the nervous system. Power and
speed are adaptations of both training and practice.

The essence of the Performance of Mission Related Tasks standard is that an
individual SEAL can perform well at any and every mission related task
imaginable. This is closely aligned with the reality of life, which provides largely
unforeseeable challenges. With this in mind, training should not be “routine” in
sets, rest periods, reps, exercises, order of exercises, periodization, etc.
