CrossFit, the weight-pumping fitness trend sweeping the nation, has some unusual celebrity fans. Like Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt (Heidi describes the workouts as "really intense, really hardcore"). Or Jack Osbourne, who likes to train at CrossFit Hollywood and has dropped more than 50 pounds since starting the workout.

Osbourne is so dedicated to his new fitness regimen that he's scheduled to appear at the official opening of the new, 4000-square-foot CrossFit Sunset facility this Saturday, October 20th. The former reality TV star and new dad will be on hand from 10am to 2pm to meet other CrossFit-ers and to lead a workout. You can sign up to attend the launch event at crossfitsunset.eventbrite.com.
