Intellectual Foundations and Practical Applications of CrossFit

Scientific observation played a large role in Crossfit’s evolution (Greg Glassman cites coming from “a family of rocket scientists living in a community of rocket scientists” as the source of his scientific rigor).

Open source also important to the Crossfit Community—I always thought Crossfit was on the leading edge of open source / online social community / game mechanics, but did not know that all of this was explicitly by design.
