Can't afford a membership? No worries.... you can easily set up your own little CrossFit at home. Ok, it is true that working out at home will not provide you with the expert guidance of a trainer, the contagious motivation of others that helps push you the extra mile, and depending on the set up can be weather dependant, but you can set up a workout space almost anywhere.
With a little handywork, a few bucks and a little space you can get a solid workout in at home.
A few dumbbells, a kettlebell or two, some rings, a plyobox or a stair, a mat, a skipping rope, a chin -up bar if you have the room, and a space to run to that you can measure, then you're in business!
Burpees, push ups, lunges, pistol squats, air squats, sit ups, walking lunges, jumping squats, back extentions, handstands, and oodles of other body weight exercises are 100% FREE...and extrememely portable ;)
At home I have a sweet summer set up outside: some KBs, my dad made me a plyo box (thanks Papa!), bought myself a pair of rings, a TRX, some dumbbells , skipping rope, and a few other things and on days when I can't get to CrossFit Montreal or Club Mansfield, I can workout at home.
So you don;t need much to get your WOD on, just a little space, imagination, and a dad as nice as mine.
