This is YMCA workout stuff, right?

Crossfit workouts could be done anywhere with very little to no equipment. But because the workout can be done anywhere doesn't mean that going to the Crossfit gym isn't important. Having a certified trainer and experienced athletes helping you/cheering you on is a major plus. Doing a full on Hero WOD at a YMCA will get you a lot of funny looks and maybe kicked out when your dropping 135# from overhead. The Crossfit gym is almost like a home to me even has a little family that im proud to be a part of. If i could i would do every workout there but going to college away from here makes it hard. 2 weeks left before i leave and when im gone i will be ready to be back to this world of Crossfit i throw myself into.

"How to get Kicked Out of Your Gym in 10 Days or Less"

Day 1

Bring your own music – use a boom box – and turn

it up to inspiration levels and start working out. AC-

DC’s “Thunderstruck” should do the trick.

Day 2

Set up a circuit like one of the typical CrossFit

“Workouts of the Day” and put a sign up at each

station advising others that this equipment is

reserved for accurate timing of your effort.

Day 3

While practicing the Olympic lifts drop a max load

from overhead. This may do it right here.

Day 4

Find a twenty-inch platform and perform box

jumps. Try three sets of two minutes of max jumps.

Bizarrely, this one irks the shit out of most gym

management.

Day 5

Take a pair of dumbbells out into the parking lot to

do walking lunges. You may be accused of theft.

Day 6

Bring several powerlifting buddies to do some super

heavy deadlifts. Don’t forget to grunt, scream, and use chalk!

grunting, sweating, yelling, or dropping weights

allowed.

Day 7

If the gym has support poles climb them. If

not find something to climb; sling a rope over

a beam or rafters, attach some climbing holds

to the wall and use them. You won’t get to the

climbing part if you need to attach anything.

You may get stopped at the door coming in

with a twenty-five foot coil of two-inch rope.

Day 8

Workout with your shirt off. If you don’t get a reaction

have your girlfriend or wife take hers off.

Day 9

Walk on your hands, or do handstand push-ups or

some other basic gymnastics stuff.

Day 10

If you’ve gotten this far, this one is the clincher.

Record your efforts by writing them on the wall.

If after day ten you are still allowed in,

you belong to a great gym. Let us know

where it is; we’ll feature it on our site. If

you’re asked to leave before or during

this experiment it’s time to clean out the

garage!
