7 Minutes of Inspiration


I really can’t get enough of this crossfit video. OPT of Crossfit Calgary goes for a personal record at an intense workout nicknamed ‘Helen’ at the Crossfit headquarters. The workout consists of 3 rounds of a 4oom sprint, 21 kettlebell swings and 12 pull-ups, done for time. His last PR was just over 7 minutes. Can he do it sub-7 this time? Watch the vid to find out (and turn up the volume to get a full taste of the atmosphere).

p.s.: the music in this video is a mashup by Totom. His website is here. Great tune.
