For 12 years, Murray Hambro knew exactly who he was: a soldier. Then, in an instant, everything changed. While deployed, Hambro endured an IED explosion that cost him both legs. After being medically discharged, he faced the loss of an identity he had built his life around, and the purpose and direction that came with it. He had never planned to leave the military. Now he had to figure out what came next. That search eventually led him to CrossFit. Now the owner of CrossFit Tigerlily, Hambro says CrossFit has been a huge part of his recovery — a place where he could rediscover what he was capable of, and perhaps most importantly, a place where he found a community that changed his life and supported him through profound grief when he lost his young son. As the United Kingdom pauses this Remembrance Day to honor those who have served and sacrificed, Hambro's story offers a deeply personal reflection on what comes after service, and how a community can help someone find a new mission when the one they built their life around is suddenly gone. Watch the full feature airing Tuesday on CrossFit YouTube. #CrossFit

Jillian had been on a weight-loss journey since grad school. When friends encouraged her to try CrossFit, she was hesitant but worked up the courage to walk through the doors of CrossFit Tantrum. What she found was people who support her, a sustainable path to health, and coaches who meet her where she's at everyday, helping her build strength and confidence one workout at a time. #CrossFit

When Linda Bowers was diagnosed with breast cancer, her community at CrossFit Cedar Park rallied around her in every way. She kept training through her treatments, drawing strength from the friends who stood beside her at the gym when she needed them most. Today, she’s an inspiration to the very people who showed up for her. #CrossFit

Aaron Vnuk is blind. He's also the owner of Blind Faith CrossFit in North Haven, Connecticut, and he's living proof that no obstacle is bigger than the will to overcome it. A former school counselor, Vnuk and his wife took over the gym with a mission far bigger than fitness: to build a community rooted in inclusion, resilience, and grit. At Blind Faith CrossFit, people from every walk of life, every ability, every background, and every starting point come together to learn the same lesson Aaron lives out every single day: how to do hard things. #CrossFit

Workout of the Day Saturday 261010 Back squat 7-7-7-7-7 reps Compare to similar 260619. Post loads to comments. Stimulus and Strategy: Today's workout is a heavy day. Ensure all 5 sets are heavy enough to be working sets that get you stronger. All sets should ideally be at least 70% of your 1-rep max or a load that feels moderately heavy. Look back to your most recent heavy back squat days. These numbers can help gauge your numbers in today's effort. Note that today, you can build to a heavy set of 7 over the course of 5 working sets, but all sets should be challenging. Newer athletes should stick to lighter loads and continue practicing sound mechanics. Heavy is the goal today, but always prioritize mechanics, only going as heavy as technique allows. Intermediate option: Same as Rx'd. Beginner option: Same as Rx'd. 📍2026 CrossFit Games Event 5 #CrossFit #WorkoutoftheDay
