CrossFit is a strength and conditioning program that has been around for over two decades. There are approximately 15,000 CrossFit gyms worldwide, and below are the top 5 reasons you should join a CrossFit gym today.
- Great Workouts - CrossFit combines weightlifting, calisthenics and cardio movements into workouts that we call the workout of the day, also known as a WOD. Our workout challenges you and changes every day so you never get bored. You can see examples of CrossFit workouts at crossfit.com.
- Coach Led Classes - All classes are led by a certified CrossFit coach and follow the same structure. Coach discusses the workout with the class at our whiteboard brief, takes everyone through a warm-up and reviews each of the movements in the workout. Then the class performs the workout together followed by some high fives and a cool down of the class. This all takes place in a one hour class.
- Accountability - At CrossFit, we want our members to be in the gym. We want our members to attend classes 3-5 days per week. Coaches hold you accountable for your attendance to ensure you are getting results.
- All Ages and Abilities - CrossFit gyms are able to work with all ages and ability levels. We make all of our workouts scalable, which means we can meet the needs of beginner and advanced athletes. Most gyms also offer age specific classes meeting the needs of kids, teens, adults and senior athletes.
- Community - You are the company in which you keep. At a CrossFit gym, you are supported by a community of like minded people who are prioritizing their health and fitness. For many people, their CrossFit gym is like a second home.
If you have been looking to jump start your fitness through the support of a caring and supportive community…look no further than your closest CrossFit affiliate.
