If your goal is to lose weight and get fit while juggling a packed schedule, it might be time to rethink your gym membership. In my recent podcast episode on Busy People Getting Fit, I explained why joining a CrossFit gym is often a better choice than traditional gyms or even trendy fitness options like ArcoFit, Orange Theory, or F45.

Our Blue Eagle Workout Philosophy
What about thrusters? They are everything except a lower body pull.... except that you have to perform a clean, which is a lower body pull, to start every set.

Monday Motivation - Handling Stress
