WHAT IS CROSSFIT?
Family. Friendly. Fun.
A high-intensity fitness programme incorporating elements from several sports and types of exercise.
The principles of Crossfit are to enjoy a fun and social pursuit of cardiovascular and respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy.
CONSTANTLY VARIED WORKOUTS
CrossFit prepares you for any physical contingency. Workouts are constantly varied, and incorporate weightlifting, gymnastics, running, and more.
GUIDED BY A COACH
CrossFit meets you where you're at. Your coach will adjust the workouts to be appropriately challenging for you. As you learn what you're able to do now, you'll be rewarded with a new challenge to pursue next.
INDEPENDENT COMMUNITIES
CrossFit gyms are not cookie-cutter franchises, but instead dynamic and varied independent businesses that bring the CrossFit methodology to their local community.
A quick introduction to CrossFit from the CrossFit Worldwide Youtube Channel.
““Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Practice and train major lifts: deadlift, clean, squat, presses, clean and jerk, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc. Hard and fast. Five or six days per week, mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.””
