What if I'm not in shape already?
We hear this one a lot! For most folks the hardest part is walking through the door on the first day. Getting people up and moving again is what we do! Don't waste another minute swimming through the machines at your globo gym. We'll teach you real movements that apply to every day life and get you in shape at the same time. Our workouts are for athletes of all skill and age levels. Every workout you do here will be tailored to your individual capabilities. The best way to check it out is to come to the FREE intro class on Sundays. No sign up or commitment required! Come on in and see if CrossFit is right for you.
What if I’m not an athlete? TOP
You don’t have to be an "athlete". In fact, a lot of CrossFitters are “regular” people but they recognize that hard work will get them the results they are seeking.
What should I wear / bring?
Clothes and shoes you can move in and don't mind sweating in.
Will this training interfere with my sport? TOP
No. If the demands of your sport are too high we simply won’t allow you to train with us until your commitments are lighter. The last thing we want to do is overtrain our athletes and be a hindrance instead of helping them get better.
We have training options with as few as 1 day per week. We want to help optimize your performance not stifle it.
I’m a girl, will this make me bulky? TOP
No, our program does not follow bodybuilding principles and is not conducive to putting on a lot of useless mass.

And then come give us a try.
You do a lot of squats…aren’t they bad for your knees? TOP
No. And by the way, you do them every day - how else do you get off the toilet? Not only is the squat foundational to athleticism, but even more importantly, it’s foundational to functional independence.
Squatting has developed a reputation of being unsafe because of the prevalence of atrocious form and severe inflexibility. Properly performed squats and related movements will fortify the knees, hips and back—not damage them—and help prevent injury in the future.
Avoiding movements your body was engineered to perform is the best way to ensure injury and your body’s failure to function properly for you. We spend a great deal of time teaching our members proper form in all movements and constantly monitor performance to ensure safety and optimal benefits.
What if I want to just look and feel good? TOP
Then you are not unlike a lot of our members. People don’t train CrossFit with us only for increased athletic performance; some simply want the best possible results in the least possible time.
We train all of our members as if they were world-class athletes because this unequivocally produces superior results in all of us. Why train in a way that inherently limits your potential for success? Why restrict yourself to simply looking good when you can look better, feel better AND perform better?
What if I don’t have time? TOP
Come on, now. Are you really asking us that?

What's this "Open Gym" on the Schedule About? TOP
Open Gym time is a benefit we extend to our members. Members are welcome to come in and get some skill practice in, make up a Workout of The Day or get some Active Rest in. It's instructor guided -- so you're going to get some coaching. It's not a free for all and not intended to be another class or a free class which is why the more often you come to CrossFit Classes, the more Open Gym time you get.
