What is CrossFit?
- What is CrossFit 1
The founder of CrossFit, Greg Glassman, was the first person to clearly explain what being fit really means and made a plan to help people get there.
Being fit is not only showed in a mirror, although the looks of a person can give a hint about their fitness level. Being fit is about what the body can do when given a task that requires physical work whether it is hiking a steep path, lifting a suitcase or chopping wood.
In CrossFit, you do different exercises every day, and they’re all about moving your body in useful ways. Think of it as taking the best parts of gymnastics, weightlifting, running, rowing, and more to help you be your best self. These exercises are the ones that make everyday tasks easier because they make you strong and healthy.
The secret ingredient in CrossFit is intensity. That means you work hard and fast. The harder you work in a shorter time, the better your results.
CrossFit isn’t just for one goal. Whether you want to lose weight, boost your energy, build muscles, or simply be healthier, CrossFit can help. It’s like having a super fitness buddy that guides you towards your goals. With CrossFit, you’ll see amazing improvements in your fitness journey, one day at a time.
So, join in on this exciting adventure, and let CrossFit lead you to your fitness dreams. We’re here to show you that you can achieve anything you set your mind to, step by step.
- What is CrossFit 2
The community that spontaneously arises when people do these workouts together is a critical component of why CrossFit is so effective. It gave birth to a global network of CrossFit affiliates that number over 11,000. Harness the natural camaraderie, competition and fun of sport or game yield an intensity that cannot be matched by other means. The CrossFit program is driven by data. Using whiteboards as scoreboards, keeping accurate scores and records, running a clock, and precisely defining the rules and standards for performance, we not only motivate unprecedented output but derive both relative and absolute metrics at every workout. This data has significant value well beyond motivation. Overall, CrossFit aims to forge a broad, general and inclusive fitness supported by measurable, observable and repeatable results. The program prepares trainees for any physical contingency—not only for the unknown but for the unknowable, too. Our specialty is not specializing.
- What is CrossFit 3
While CrossFit challenges the world’s fittest, the program is designed for universal scalability, making it the perfect application for any committed individual, regardless of experience. We scale load and intensity; we don’t change the program. The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree, not kind.

CrossFit All Levels
“Constantly varied functional movements at high intensity.” This is it. Basic CrossFit training that is scalable and accessible for everyone regardless of age, fitness level, or athletic background.
CrossFit Advanced
Do you already speak and live CrossFit? SDHP, DU, MU, EMOM don’t need an explanation. If the answer is yes, then this class is perfect for you. This class will provide a higher workload and more complex movements over 75 min than CF All Levels, but is based on the same programming.
Open Gym
Want to practice your skills? Need to work on your weaknesses? Or maybe you missed a workout and want to catch up. This is the right time and place for that. However, you will be training on your own.
Personal Training
Do you have specific needs? Maybe you just prefer to have the individual attention of an experienced coach. Perhaps your schedule limits your ability to workout at the prescribed times. Personal training offers our members the flexibility to suit your lifestyle. Our trainers will be happy to support you with your goals.
CrossFit Mobility
This class is for you. Yes, we mean you! Better mobility equals better workout results and faster recovery.
Conditioning Class
Longer workouts with simple movements.Sweat guarantee.
Strength Class
Specialty class focusing on getting you stronger!
Weightlifting
Olympic weightlifting is the sport that with no doubt gives you the most bang of your buck when it comes to improving your strength, speed, power, balance and body function. Olympic weightlifting is also the sport that will help you to resist the decline of the aforementioned as you age! Contrary to the common beliefs Olympic weightlifting, when executed with right technique, is safe and beneficial for everyone. Our classes focus on learning and improving either the Snatch or the Clean & Jerk and will also take the CrossFit specific applications (barbell cycling) into account.
Nutrition Coaching
Nutrition is the base of your health and your diet is an essential tool for your fitness. Whether your goal is to lose weight, gain muscle, be more energized, run a marathon, break bad habits, recover faster from your workouts or gain more knowledge about the effects of your diet to your health and body composition, nutrition coaching is for you. We tailor the coaching to suit your need 100%. No dogmas, no one-size-fits-all solutions, no banned foods. Just you, your goals and your needs. And your success.

FAQ
- I’m new to CrossFit – what should I expect?
Great question! You should expect to be challenged, to learn LOTS of new things, and most importantly, to have FUN.
Our foundation training is perfect for people who are new to CrossFit or would like a refresher on the basics. Our foundation training consist of three one-on-one sessions, where you will learn the basic movements and language of a typical CrossFit class. One of our experienced coaches will train you through the foundational movements of CrossFit, which we regularly program into our group classes. The one-on-one sessions can be scheduled very fast and you can get started usually within 48h from your first contact with us.
The 50-minute sessions will typically start with a briefing on what will be covered followed by a structured warm-up and skill coaching on a particular movement or two, and end with a short heart-pumping workout. The training is tailored to meet your personal needs.
- I am ready to sign up! What next?
Awesome! We cannot wait to learn more about you and help you meet your goals inside and out of the gym. Call or email us with any questions and get signed up for your first foundation training.
- Do I have to be in shape before I can start CrossFit?
No. This is one the biggest misconceptions about CrossFit – we welcome and encourage people of ALL abilities and athletic levels (even if that level is zero!) to give CrossFit a try.
- What if I am dropping in from out of town?
Yes, we love new friends. Please, send us an email latest 24h before the visit, and we get your spot reserved.
- I have an old/nagging injury – can I still do CrossFit?
For sure you can!
CrossFit can actually be used as rehab for injuries. Many people who come to us are unable to squat (get yourself up from a seated position), deadlift (picking up your groceries), press (putting something up on a shelf), but CrossFit teaches you how to move properly and exercise with correct mechanics, which in turn helps you regain functional capacity. Our coaches will work with you to meet your own modification, and scaling needs to ensure your safety.
