The aim is to prepare YOU for dealing with life’s challenges – the unknown or unknowable!

Our workouts are constantly varied and therefore you will never do two days the same, two weeks the same or two months the same. Not only does this keep things interesting, but it also increases the impact of each workout.

The key to CrossFit’s success is down to not allowing the body get used to the type of activity/training/movement you are regularly performing (keeping the body guessing) therefore by using functional compound movements, which are performed at high intensity and are constantly varied in their duration, movements and repetitions, your body keeps adapting and so you continue to get RESULTS long term!!!

Check out the following video to give you an idea of what’s involved in CrossFit:

What is functional movement?

Functional movement involves real world situations. A great example of this is an exercise called the squat as it represents standing up. Without the ability to squat, how else could you get off the toilet!? Similarly, think about the Deadlift; without it, how else would you pick up this week’s grocery shopping!?

CrossFit is a full body conditioning programme for any age and ability. The workouts are scalable to suit each individual and their own personal goals as the CrossFit community brings together a wide range of people: Anyone from beginners who are new to fitness, to the elite athletes who are looking for a new challenge both mentally and physically. CrossFit challenges the body in all areas using as many different and unique exercises and movements as possible.

Our Norwich CrossFit gym adapts and develops exercises that allow individuals to perform the activities of daily life more easily and without injury.

Every CrossFit routine is timed or measured to monitor YOUR progression!
