Comments
Comments/additional information about adaptive equipment:
Its a gym, many of the machines look daunting and like there is no way to make them accessible, but that is what is amazing about CrossFit. Every movement can be done or adapted for every person, some need more change than others, but all the coaches are able to create exercises that all people can do.
