So this was like because when you go out to the real world and you join a local crossfit box, it's basically that coach's interpretation of crossfit in terms of their programming, in terms of their personality.
Imagine standing at a crossroads, knowing that one decision could alter your entire future. That's where Chris Morton found himself during a weekend at CrossFit Brisbane.
