best advice i have is to do sum workouts b4 u start crossfit to prepare urself... ur in for a real asskickin... if u dont train b4hand, u might b pukin by the end of ur workout...

also buy some workout mixes and protein supplements, cuz u need to work it every day, and u will be crazy sore and tired at the beginning...by having lots of protein ull be less sore...good luck man

Also you'll be expected to stay on top of your workout after your training sessions with the crossfit workout of the day. It makes your classes twice a week that much more achievable.
