At CrossFit Hagerstown we want to prepare
everyone for any type of situation. We might have to carry someone one
day and the next you might have to hold a large piece of sheetrock in a awkward
fashion for several seconds or minutes at a time. How do we prepare for
such activities where we have to keep a certain position? By working on
isometric holds!
