Murph event

    On June 28,2009 CrossFit Frederick wanted to remember Lt. Michael Murphy, as this was the date of his death. Several of our members and Dave wore vests of varying weights. The guys you see all have 20lb. vest on and the women wore 12lb. vests. All had a great time!!!

Healthy Strong Hands Info

  • According to a study conducted over a period of 25 years, the hand grip strength of mid-life males was highly predictive of their overall health and well-being in the later years of life. Those who had good muscle strength in mid-life were found to be less likely to suffer from disabilities 25 years later.*
  • It is important to understand that having a strong and healthy hand does not cause fewer disabilities in old age. Rather, if you are leading an active, healthful lifestyle overall in your young/mid-life years, you will be less susceptible to ailments in your old age—and your hand grip strength is one way of knowing how well you’re doing on this score.

Quote by Henry Rollins

  • “I have never met a truly strong person who didn’t have self-respect. When I see guys working out for cosmetic reasons, I see vanity exposing them in the worst way, as cartoon characters, billboards for imbalance and insecurity. Strength reveals itself through character. Muscle mass does not always equal strength. Strength is kindness and sensitivity. Strength is understanding that your power is both physical and emotional. That it comes from the body and the mind. And the heart. The Iron is the best antidepressant I have ever found. There is no better way to fight weakness than with strength. Once the mind and body have been awakened to their true potential, it’s impossible to turn back. The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you’re a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.”
