What is it?
Simply put, CrossFit is a sport - the sport of fitness. The workouts are constantly varied, high intensity, and founded on functional movement. The methodology behind the approach is empirically driven, clinically tested and community developed. There are ten areas that CrossFit workouts address - endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance and accuracy. These workouts prepare you for life, and since life doesn't specialize, neither does CrossFit.
CrossFit has been called “The Sport of Fitness” because it re-introduces personal athletic achievement and performance to training. The mindset at the start of each workout is to be stronger, move faster, more efficiently, with better form than ever. This is why even after years of training CrossFit style, scores and times in workouts continue to drop and athletes continue to improve. It’s hard, fun, exciting, challenging, and will push you to be your absolute best!
CrossFit, by design is broad, general and all inclusive. Its specialty is in not specializing, and its workouts elicit a maximal neuro-endocrine response from your body by taxing it to maximum capacity with variety, intensity, multiple joint, full body, and functional movements.
