Survival Fitness in Saginaw Township hosted the first-ever 'Survival Fitness Summer Open'.

They competed in a sport known as CrossFit. It's described as a strength and conditioning program that is constantly varied, with high intensity, and functional movement. Bottom-line, CrossFit draws exercises from several different disciplines.
