The Kipping Top 10

10. The kipping Pull-up (henceforth referred to as the KPU) is all about power output. Power is work (or force x distance) divided by time. High power output (the goal of CrossFit) taxes the entire human system and elicits a neuroendocrine response. (NER: hormonal and neurological changes, short and long term benefits, Google it.)
9. The KPU results in a more potent hormonal stimulus than its less dynamic, less powerful, non-explosive strict pull-up counterpart.
8. The KPU places demands on all 3 metabolic pathways.
7. KPUs are like plyometrics for the shoulder, rapidly stretching and contracting the muscles of the, well, heck, everything.

CrossFit Belltown trains it's members to handle whatever life has to throw at them; the unknown and the unknowable. This lack of specialization means CFBT athletes are trained to perform uncommonly well at multiple, diverse and randomized physical challenges - and is thus what distinguishes its programming from all other training modalities.

The CrossFit program is designed to be universally and infinitely scaleable, making it the perfect application for anyone regardless of experience, skill level or overall fitness. And best of all, CFBT cultivates a supportive environment that enables it's athletes to grow while also being surrounded by like-minded, motivated, positive individuals!

The magic is in the movement, the art is in the programming, the science is in the explanation, and the fun is in the community.

We all train hard, we all train together and we ALL get results!
