CrossFit 904

CrossFit is designed for athletes of ALL levels - from professional athletes, to desk jockeys, to homemakers, to retirees. We scale load and intensity for all our clients based on their individual fitness level and ability. The workout you see posted on the site is for the most elite athlete. If you see it and think you can't do a lot of it, no pro... blem, very few can. We can scale every movement and workout until you are strong/fit enough to complete the workout as it is prescribed (Rx). On the other hand, fitness is an ongoing pursuit and even the most elite athlete can come into our gym and find a workout challenging. Whatever level you are at now, you give it your best and get fitter every day. 2. What about my bad knee, shoulder, or back? We focus on functional movements.

What can I expect on my first day? We know CrossFit can be very intimidating, so your first day will be introductory. You will be led through a warm up of basic movements, taught 2-3 basic new skills, and then given a workout in which the intensity and difficulty will be entirely up to you. If you feel confident in your fitness ability, you can go as hard as you want at the workout. If you have not worked out in a while, you will be encouraged to take your time and focus on finishing the workout. 4. Can I really get a good workout in under 30 minutes? Yes, more and more research shows that short, high intensity effort will produce better results than long and slow duration. If you run a 10K, your intensity (power output) will be lower than if you run 400 meter sprints. Meaning: you're doing more work in less time. This is why we will push you to your physiological and psychological tolerances during any given workout. No matter who you are or what workout you do, ...Read More
