Showing improvements in CrossFit is simple.
One way to find out if you are improving is repeat a workout.

If you haven't been keeping track of your times,
now is a good time to start. Pick a workout
you like, and get a time. Repeat the same workout
a month from now.Compare your times if your time
improves, you are making progress.
