What is CrossFit?
A program fit and scale-able to anyone who decides to make the commitment to be better. We utilize compound movements through body-weight, weightlifting and conditioning elements, at varying lengths of duration and intensity.
The result, a fully capable and efficient athlete that is ready to take on any task life or athletics throws at it and a body that looks the part.
When coupled with community, the effects can be staggering and our community certainly reflects the effectiveness of the program. Don’t let this intimidate or stop you, we have all started fresh and grown to where we are today. There are no egos here, only friends to help guide you along the way. All we ask is that you show up and work hard and we will help you get there.
Is CrossFit for Me?
The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience. Your needs and the Olympic athlete’s differ by degree not kind. The same methods that yield great success in an Olympic or professional athlete will show true in the elderly. The idea is to scale load and intensity; not to change programs. You won’t have to lift weights beyond your level or perform movements beyond your skill set.
We pride ourselves on working with athletes of all different types and ability levels and making them better. Furthermore, our target population is not specific to age or gender. Instead, we are targeting anyone who is willing to work hard and keep an open mind to CrossFit principles. Of course, we can’t load your grandmother with the same squatting weight that we’d assign an Olympic skier, but they both need to squat.
In fact, squatting is essential to maintaining functional independence and improving fitness. Through thorough coaching and incremental load assignment, CrossFit has been able to teach anyone to perform with maximum efficacy. We can surpass the same movements typically utilized by professional coaches in elite and certainly exclusive environments. CrossFit has tested its methods on the sedentary, overweight, pathological, and the elderly and found that these populations enjoyed the same success as our stable of athletes. If our program works for Olympic Skiers and overweight, sedentary homemakers then it will work for you.
