Crossfit High Voltage from Epic Junction on Vimeo.

This is a cool video showing some of the parallels that exist in life as compared to training.  Every functional movement we do has the potential to be mirrored, and performed more efficiently, in life.  Whether its carrying your school bag or trying to cram your books in a locker.  Training and fitness make it easier.
