The Girl

The Girl refers to a collection of original named WODs created by CrossFit founder, Greg Glassman. According to the 2004 CrossFit Journal article, the original Girls were Angie, Barbara, Chelsea, Diane, Elizabeth and Fran.

“Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”, and identifiably, each of these WODs carried the same theory of why storms are named after women. They are physically demanding and they always leave athletes feeling as though they had been hit by a tempest!
