We do strength and conditioning. We do crossfit. An evolved version. A better crossfit. Meaning we do exercises that use our bodies instead of machines. We do those exercises, as hard as possible, and it changes daily to keep your body growing.
Simple, hard, and effective are the three principles that guide the decisions made. Variety for the sake of variety is not. And the program is modified to each and every individual, individually.
We use crossfit to better the lives of the people of Elk Grove. To make better humans, better parents, and stronger community And much less worried about being good at the sport of CrossFit.

MASH style! Also know as, "a little bit of everything."
I tried to make the time caps hard enough to where you get about 1-2min. of rest before the next session. Staying on pace will be tough for some and easier for others. So worst case scenario, just stop no matter where you're at 1min. before the next section. That way you have enough gas in the tank to hit each piece hard. You're also welcome to keep a slower effort and almost turn it into a 35min nonstop workout. It's just not as fun that way ;)
