We've all seen videos and photos of the CrossFit super stars performing their super human feats of strength and speed. But what's REALLY important in CrossFit, is what are feats of strength and speed for YOU. One of the main concepts behind CrossFit is "scalability" -- meaning the workouts are written for the elite athlete, and you can scale them to fit your needs. Not only is that not "wrong" to do, but it's important for your growth as an athlete. Scaling means you can adjust the number of rounds, the numbers of repetitions of each exercise, or even the exercise itself. Box jumps might become step ups. Jumping lunges might become walking lunges.

If you ever have a question about how to scale a workout you see here - please post your questions to the comments so we can help you!
