What is CrossFit New River?
CrossFit New River is a non-profit organization dedicated to the fitness of all participants. Our specialty is our lack of specialization. We train using CrossFit methodologies. By use of constantly varied functional movements, executed at high intensity - we train to increase our work capacities across broad time and modal domains. Our exercise routines are scalable to meet the needs of all athletes. Furthermore they will develop you in the 10 physical skills that make up fitness: Cardiovascular/Respiratory Endurance, Stamina, Strength, Flexibility, Power, Speed, Coordination, Agility, Accuracy, and Balance.
Recently an article has come out in the Marine Corps Times about a pending lawsuit against a former CrossFit affiliate. The complainant is a Navy Petty Officer who suffered severe exercise induced Rhabdomyolysis. Please read this article "Killer Workouts." My intent has and will always be to train hard and train safely. Read the article and you will understand the reasons behind scaling. Scaling in not a bad thing, I personally scaled every workout I did for my first 6-8 weeks of CrossFit and still do on certain workouts. If that hasn't convinced you keep in my they had scaled workouts use by Competitors during the CrossFit Games. Don't be pig-headed, you would never attempt a 500 lbs bench press nor a 26.2 mile marathon without training and building to it without expecting very serious injury. Treat this the same way, smart and intense training will yield great results.

Back squat, 1 rep
Shoulder Press, 1 rep
Deadlift, 1 rep
Post total to comments.
Rules to remember if you are playing by the rule book: 1. You get three attempts at each lift
2. You cannot remove weight from the bar. Example if you put 295 on the bar and make a successful back squat, that is one attempt. If you decide to go to 315 on the next attempt and you fail you cannot lower the weight and make your third attempt.
