Roll with the 603

First thing's first - the PR Party thread is still going strong, with more than 70 comments so far. Keep them coming - if you're a lurker here but have yet to drop some props, now is the time to make yourself heard.

Now, on to the topic of the day. A few of you who posted songs to the PR Party thread added as a bit of a disclaimer, "I'm not a 603'er, but here's my favorite track." Interesting. The first thing I'll say it does not matter if you're not a 603'er. Good music is good music, and I'd like to get 70 more people to contribute to this gold mine of lyrical magic.

But the next thing I'll say is, why aren't you a 603'er? I mean, I know you most likely do not live within practical driving distance of Tilton, NH, and therefore cannot physically come and train with us. Too bad - we'd love to have you. But that doesn't mean you can't still check out our stuff and play along from time to time.

See, at the 603, we do all our own programming. And I may be biased, but I'd like to think our stuff is pretty good, thanks in no small part to Dallas (the evil genius behind 90% of our WoDs). Our workouts are heavy on the Oly, kettlebells and gymnastics, and have a serious strength bias. We like to mix things up in ways you may not have seen before. And we make you think about your training - your strengths and weaknesses, your skill level, and your degree of mental toughness. All of which means our workouts are an awful lot of FUN. Well, fun-ish. I mean, you've seen our tag line. (Also, even we'll admit that the math is not fun. Nobody likes math.)

The thing is, we've got CrossFitters from all over regularly doing our workouts and posting to comments. Jonathan in the UK, Kristin and Jay in North Carolina, Andy at Dartmouth, Addi in Nebraska, Nik in Maine, Tony from... um, Tony, where are you from, anyway? And Matt, originally from NH but currently deployed in Afghanistan. So not all 603'ers actually train WITH us (although, again, we wish they could).

So if you're ever stuck for a workout, or bored with what you've been doing, or just feeling like kicking your own ass in a totally new and uncomfortable manner... check us out. Scroll through our WoDs, and if you see something you like, give it a go. That goes for you affiliate owners and trainers out there too - feel free to borrow, sample or straight-up snatch any one of the 603 WoDs. We only ask one thing of you... if you give our stuff a whirl, sound off in our comments! We appreciate hearing feedback on our programming, and we love seeing what other people are able to do with our stuff.

Come roll with the 603, even if it's just for a day. You can start here, if you like... the met-con I am now calling The Workout of Which We Do Not Speak. Or, my personal favorite - our version of a CrossFit classic called Stand Up, Linda. See, Constantly Varied drops in on us all the time, so no matter what day you choose, you're bound to try something new, and have a little fun while you're at it. (Well, fun-ish. Right.)
