crossfit
WOD-based training
To crossfit is to engage in high-intensity functional fitness training that combines weightlifting, cardio, and gymnastics movements.
The lowercase form appears as a generic verb or descriptor for this style of workout, though the branded form dominates: I've been crossfitting for about six months now. (Capitalized CrossFit is the trademarked fitness brand.)
