CrossFit in the Mainstream

Two CrossFit articles appear in the latest issues of Muscle and Fitness and in Men's Journal. The Muscle and Fitness piece spotlights Petranek's Fitness and it's CrossFit program (with the history of CrossFit mixed in) and Men's Journal highlights CrossFit San Fransisco. Both are good articles told from the authors POV upon attending some CrossFit classes. Check them out at a newsstand near you.
