		<description>Thank you Richard.  That&#039;s very kind of you. Nobody feels as proud to be a part of this community as the Invictus coaching staff. The members of this community are what make it special. You all make coaching easy and fulfilling because of your hard work and encouragement of others.</description>

		<description>Great blog post!  I read the whole thing on Dutch&#039;s blog and have already fwded it to a couple friends who are curious.  It&#039;s nice to be able to point to something that outlines the CFI program so nicely.  

Like all of you, I feel very fortunate to be part of the community.  :-)</description>

		<description>I posted this rather lengthy comment over Dutch&#039;s blog on the post about Invictus.  

&quot;i train here with CJ and the other great, phenomenal coaches and unless you have a chance to experience first hand how we train at Invictus, then it is difficult to understand the level of committment that CJ and the other put into this program. For one, i notice a lot of other affiliates just doing the WOD as it appears on the main site, which usually repeat every month. Aside from the benchmark WODS, we have not repeated a single metcon workout in the time i have been there since June. Second, the one thing that keeps me coming back to Invictus daily is not just the WOD, but how we prepare for the WOD. I have poor posture and mobility/flexibility and one thing i am grateful for is the amount of training and knowledge i have received on how to improve my overall fitness in these areas. Since starting crossfit at Invictus, i have noticed my posture has improved dramatically and my flexibility has improved dramatically as well, although they are not at the levels i would like them to be. My wife has also started going there with me and she absolutely loves it. she also has better form and mobility than I do and she is a natural. the one thing CJ forgot to mention also is that the atmosphere at invictus also contributes to the environment we train in. I have made several new friends since starting there because everyone is passionate about what they do, not just with crossfit, but also in their daily lives and when you have a group of people who workout together like this, you find that you can accomplish most anything. It is a real testament to the positive social atmosphere at Invictus when you see athletes high fiving each other as they pass each other on run or positively encouraging others to pick the weight up and finish, even when you think your heart is going to explode and your lungs are on fire, or “fran-claw” is setting in.  So thank you to CJ and everyone else at Invictus for all the time and effort you spend with us making us better athletes and more importantly, better people.&quot;</description>

		<description>This is my all time favorite picture, on my all time favorite blog.

I absolutely love CFI and all that it has given me.  

CJ, your programming has made an athlete out of this 43 year old chick, who never did any athletic in her life.  Thank you for that.  And thanks to all the other coaches who keep an eye out for me.</description>

		<description>This might be the coolest day of blog comments for the simple fact that three of my all-time favorite Invictus family members are checking in from afar. Ken C., Ron H. and the Bee Charmer himself - you all need to blog MORE!!! We miss you, and the three of you were huge reasons that Invictus has the camaraderie and community that exists today. Be safe, check in more often, and hurry back to San Diego as soon as possible.</description>

		<description>Awesome post C.J. I believe that CFI provides the best training because we are not purist. We take what is good from many different disciplines, constantly strive to learn and aren&#039;t afraid to try something new.

Rock on CFI and all our stellar coaches. I am blessed to be a part of this awesome community.</description>

		<description>AWESOME writing (as always) CJ. 
I miss you guys and I miss CrossFitting. We were just given the freedom to do our own PT on Tuesday&#039;s and Thursday&#039;s, so I going to try and follow the CFI WODs. 
Keep up the great work!
