Deadlift 5-5-5-5-5take yourself to a heavy five rep max for the day Fashion Week at CrossFit Roots MILAN, january 8th Once upon a time, in the pre-gimmicky age of fitness, athletes dreamed of being Greek-like Gods and Goddesses.  Colorado-based designer RooTS got back to well, his roots, with his new collection of pullover hoodies, zip-up sweatshirts, and sweatpants.
