Crossfit For Toddlers Is Now A Real Thing

LONG ISLAND CITY — The CrossFit workout craze is about to get some new pint-sized devotees.

The Hunters Point gym CrossFit Gantry will begin offering classes to children as young as 3 years old this week, giving kids a specially tailored version of the popular fitness program — which emphasizes strength, conditioning and a varied workout routine.

"They love it," said Michele Kelber, a certified CrossFit Kids coach who says youngsters are often drawn to CrossFit because they want to work out the same way as mom or dad.
