WHAT IS CROSSFIT?

CrossFit is the principal strength and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide.

Our program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. Our specialty is not specialising. Combat, survival, many sports, and life reward this kind of fitness and, on average, punish the specialist.

The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind. Skiers, mountain bike riders and housewives have found their best fitness from the same regimen.

WOD INSTRUCTIONS

These WODs (Workout Of the Day) are provided as an example of the CrossFit model. If you choose to follow these workouts please do so with commonsense.

Familiarise yourself with the movements found in these workouts by refering to the CrossFit exercise guide and please read these terms before proceeding.

If you wish to learn more about these exercises, you are welcome to come and train with us at any time, contact us for more information.

Be sensible and always exercise to your level not anyone else's.

Rest, Relax, Recover.

No doubt about it, Crossfit is hard work. If you give your all during the WODS (which I'm sure you all are) then you need to make sure you take enough time to rest and recover properly.

So rest, you deserve it!
