CrossFit has its own language. 

WOD? 
AMRAP? 
1RM? 

It's enough to confuse a veteran CrossFit member. For newbies it can be downright overwhelming. We're enjoying our favourite beverages at the Isle of Sound studios and defining some of the most common CrossFit terms.

• WOD - Workout of the Day
• AMRAP - As Many Rounds (or Reps) As Possible
• EMOM - Every Minute On the Minute
• 1RM - One rep max. This is the heaviest you can lift for one repetition. We use common lifts like deadlifts, squats, cleans, and shoulder press.
• PR - Personal record. This is the best performance of a workout or a lift. PB means Personal best and is interchangeable with PR.
• SDHP - Sumo Deadlift High Pull
• T2B - Toes to bar
• G2OH - Ground to overhead. This is either a clean and jerk or  a snatch.
• Hero WOD - Mentally and physically challenging workouts that are designed to get you out of your comfort zone. They are often created in honour of someone who has sacrificed his or her life to save others. 

I've probably missed a few!
