Be Your Own Hero #BYOH2024: first CrossFit training open to community of Politecnico di Milano

On Saturday 15 June, at the Giuriati Sports Center, we will have the opportunity to experience the first CrossFit training open to the entire community of Politecnico di Milano!

🎯 The deadline to register is Saturday 8 June!

📌 Email to cfpm@polimi.it, indicating the shift (between 1 and 6) of the “class” you would like to participate in and, possibly, the size of the shirt (more information below).

All this will be possible thanks to CrossFit Politecnico di Milano and the innovative teaching project of the NECSTCamp, which from September will take the name of Leonardo – “The Multimagineering Project”.

This WOD, i.e. the training, will be called “Be Your Own Hero” or BYOH, and will be offered right before the start of the exam session to remind everyone that WE can be OUR HEROES!

Quoting the words of Prof. Randy Pausch:

The brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to show you how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough. They’re there to stop the other people.

BYOH wants to be this, a carefree way, through a Politecnico di Milano themed WOD, to remind us that we are not alone, we are part of a community and that we can be the protagonists of our story!

HOW #BYOH2024 WILL BE STRUCTURED
BYOH will be a Politecnico themed event, the WOD time, repetitions, etc, will not be random, but will be a tribute to our University!

For example, the number of participants will be 300. 300 as the number of University Educational Credits (CFU) that allow you to graduate with a five-year single-cycle degree, but also as the sum of the credits, 180, for the Three-year Degree and, 120, for the Master’s degree.

The 300 registered people will be able to participate in the WOD in “classes” of 25 people, like the number of the first graduates of the Politecnico, so as to have 12 classes in total during the day.

Since the courses are typically 2 hours, and therefore 90 minutes, our classes will also respect this practice. Starting at 9, we will have 6 shifts:

Shift 1 @ 09.00: Classes 1 and 2
Shift 2 @ 10.30: Classes 3 and 4
Shift 3 @ 12.00: Classes 5 and 6
Lunch break
Shift 4 @ 3.00pm: Classes 7 and 8
Shift 5 @ 4.30pm: Class 9 and 10
Shift 6 @ 6.00pm: Class 11 and 12
HOW TO REGISTER FOR #BYOH2024
The event will be COMPLETELY free!

📣 To register, just send an email to cfpm@polimi.it, indicating the shift (between 1 and 6) of the “class” you would like to participate in.

If you are interested in having a souvenir of the event, we thought we would create a commemorative t-shirt that you can also use on the same day for training!

The shirt costs 25 euros and can be purchased through a donation on the “Dona” website of Politecnico di Milano.
