One of our clients on a Saturday morning brings her son with her, Eithan. He sits and watches the workouts and has become increasingly keen to try CrossFit for himself. We came in early to teach Eithan how to squat and give him a workout. The CrossFit Kids programme was developed by Jeff and Mikki Martin of Brand X in Ramona, California. Their first pupils of the training system were their three sons Conor, Keegan and Duncan. We were fortunate to stay with the Martins on our honeymoon and watch the kids classes at their gym. We met up again with the Martins when we took the CrossFit Kids Certification in September last year, it's very important to state how different the kids and adults programmes are, not being merely a scaled version of the other. It was a pleasure training Eithan and thanks go to Corry for allowing us to do this. (Eithan thought it was awesome too!)
