3. YOU WILL IMPROVE YOUR MENTAL STAMINA
One of the first things you learn at your local Crossfit-Box is that the expression “I can’t do that anymore” doesn’t exist.
We all start as rookies, even the top pros
When you observe a common WOD, you will see people spurring each other on to push themselves through the next few minutes of a gruesome Workout. The community encourages you to try harder and not give up. Within the first minute of my very first Crossfit WOD I knew I would finish any workout no matter how long it would take or how much it would hurt – just because I had seen how hard the others had slogged away.
You will establish routines of thinking “Oh, I can do one more rep of those [insert most hated excerise here]”. After a while, you will be able to transfer this resilience onto other aspects in life, always remembering that you can take on everything after you completed a total Murph-Workout!
