Simon has been doing CrossFit for close to 10 years now after hearing about it through his friends. He admires those that "walk the talk" as it were and gives it his all every chance he can get while in the box. His advice is to be patient and enjoy the experience of a good WOD when signing up for the first time. Everyone is always learning something no matter how long they've participated in CrossFit! Outside of the box he recommends a run around Tokyo Palace which is known for it's great sightseeing potential while you get a sweat on.
