CrossFit Pentagon

Welcome to CrossFit Pentagon: "It's OK to cry but you can't quit!"

CrossFit Pentagon is gaining ground at the Pentagon but is still far from a mature program. The Pentagon Athletic Center (PAC) staff is slowly embracing CrossFit, but there are no scheduled classes or any CrossFit-specific equipment that you would expect or hope to have available - rings, kettlebells, olympic lifting platforms with bumper plates, medicine balls, climbing ropes, etc.

The PAC is seriously looking into becoming more CrossFit friendly, and has drafted plans for a "Functional Fitness" area in the upcoming Phase II. This will be a racquetball-size area complete with all the CrossFit equipment you will need.

CrossFit Pentagon posts Mon-Fri WOD schedules and encourages athletes to team up in the gym and complete WODs together. All comments and feedback are welcome. Send comments to

Was excited to see Crossfit interest near the Pentagon, but bummed WODs have not been updated and my email to henry.rogers@pentagon.af.mil was returned as "undeliverable."

Is there still a group meeting? 0600-0700 is a great time slot. Any certified trainers out there who can pickup the reins? Henderson Hall or Ft Myer would be even better b/c it's free, but willing to join PAC. Surrounding area Crossfits want $150/mo with military discount (Old Town Alexandria - www.crossfitoldtown.com).

Interested in Crossfit and just got stationed at the Pentagon in January. Wondered if there are any groups training at the PAC or plans to do so? Just started at Cross Fit Old Town, but would really like to work out here in the building.
