Beauty-Strength…

I’m not trying to point out the amazing sport of crossfit and all its benefits here, I do that in my daily actions. I want to amplify the message in this video. If you have a teenage girl, PLEASE let her watch this because every word in it is true. I was unable to figure out how to embed this video, but its worth checking out!
