ABOUT CFSD
What is CrossFit?
CrossFit is a strength and conditioning program that builds general physical preparedness for all of life’s challenges. A blend of gymnastics, weightlifting, and endurance, it does not specialize. It will never plateau. It is fun, creative, and, most importantly, it works. We teach you to do common things uncommonly well, while developing a base of strength and stamina on which you can build an active lifestyle. Our methodology thrives on the effort, commitment, and cooperation of a community that shares its successes; a community we want you to become a part of.
What To Expect?
-
Expect to see men and women of all ages, fitness levels and body types. People choose to do CrossFit for many different reasons. Some want to be more athletic, so they can be better at a sport or do fun physical activities such as hiking, running, etc. and others are training to be able to keep up with their kids, lose weight, be healthier or have more energy.
-
Expect to always be supervised and supported by a team of qualified coaches, who have your safety and well-being in mind. They will teach you how to safely perform all of the movements asked of you, so that you can stay active for years to come. They will also teach you all the correct things to do when you are not in the gym, so that you can develop a healthy lifestyle.
-
Expect to accomplish things that you never thought you were capable of. We don't avoid teaching you things because of your age or fitness level, but rather we tailor them to your current fitness ability, so that over time, you be able to do more. We just ask that you trust the process. We promise you’ll be glad you did!
-
Expect to be surrounded by a supportive community who will celebrate your accomplishments, cheer you on and hold you accountable for consistently showing up and putting in the work. Each class will contain a diverse group of people who will become your support system while you are at the gym and who will likely become some of your strongest relationships outside of the gym.
-
Expect to train like an athlete. Athletes train with purpose and treat it like a job, focusing not just on the exercise component of their training, but the nutrition and recovery portions as well. Training like an athlete can lead to improved strength and muscle mass, better body composition and bone health, improved coordination and balance, and an overall sense of confidence and well-being. Real athletes train compound movements, which are multi-joint movements that involve multiple muscle groups, which have a greater effect on hormone response from your body than isolation type exercises do. If your goal is to get fitter, leaner, stronger and lose fat, then you absolutely need this type of response and lots of it.
