GOING HEAVY

ALL HAIL THE DEADLIFT KING OF CPC: 531LBS

Those of you who have been at our gym more than a few weeks will know that “Deadlift Day” is like Christmas morning around these parts.  Why is the deadlift such a key component to our CrossFit programming?  As the good prophet Mark Rippetoe states:

The deadlift is more functional in that it’s very hard to imagine a more useful application of strength than picking heavy shit up off the ground.”

Couldn’t have said it better myself.  Thanks Rip.
