The Three
Ana working her best shoulder position for the pull-up
Working for the best positioning during any movement is about three important concepts: Efficiency, efficacy and safety. We want them all. The hope is to get better at movements relatively quickly and achieve a high level of fitness with limited risk.

Cara always working hard and trying new things

Return
It is a great experience to visit other CrossFit gyms. People all over the world are doing the same stuff as us, having a good time getting fit. They lift weights, do pull-ups, run, and handstand, but each gym has its own personality and does things a little bit differently. If you get a chance to visit another gym, do it.

Hard work, consistency, and a positive attitude pay off in droves. It can be hard in life to figure out the difference between being hard on yourself and striving for excellence. Striving for excellence will benefit you and the people around you. Being overly critical can make life harder.
