CrossFit is a strength and conditioning program combining elements of weightlifting, gymnastics and endurance sport.
Three characteristics differentiate CrossFit from other exercise programs.
A typical class at CrossFit Te Rapa classes include warm-up, skill training and practice, and then the WOD (workout of the day). This is where training enters the realm of sport and the competition begins. Classes are intense, challenging and fun.
IS CROSSFIT FOR ME?
CrossFit is for anyone and everyone. It is common to have people of all abilities, office workers, mums and senior citizens, all working out side by side. The basic workout is the same for everyone; it’s the intensity we change to meet individual needs. We adjust weight up or down and scale the movements to suit you. The end result is that everyone gets a great workout appropriate for their abilities.
WHAT TO EXPECT
You will see a group ranging from 4 to 18 people of all ages attending the one class. There will be a coach running every class to guide you through what to do and teach you how to do the movements. You will find that the people will work out hard and with intensity, but are completely nice and very supportive of one another. The workout is different every day, so you will never be bored.
