What is CrossFit?

What is CrossFit?

"Crossfit is, quite simply, a sport-the "The sport of fitness". CrossFit combines weightlifting, sprinting, and gymnastics. CrossFit says that proficiency is required in each of ten fitness domains: cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, agility, balance, coordination, and accuracy. It defines fitness as increased work capacity across all these domains and says its program achieves this by provoking neurologic and hormonal adaptations across all metabolic pathways." - CrossFit Main Site

All of this is true, and so much more! CrossFit is not just for the athlete. Anyone can do CrossFit. It's for the teachers, new moms, 40 year old former athletes, 60 year olds trying to keep up with their grandchildren, and everyone in between.

You do not need to be able bodied or "fit" to do CrossFit. CrossFit will make you stronger, faster, and more agile than you are today - no matter what you are doing or not doing right now. It doesn't matter if you haven't worked out in 20 years or ever – CrossFit is for every age, fitness, and motivational level.

CrossFit is more than getting fit; it builds self-esteem, relieves stress, and is a healthy social outlet.

Why CrossFit Legitimus?

We are a results proven company from top to bottom. All of us at one point decided to make a change and the CrossFit community helped us. We provide a judgment free environment with no mirrors or crazy machines that take a manual to figure out how to operate.

Our model is simple. We share everything we know to help you reach your goals. All members are unique and it is our responsibility to provide a positive, inspirational, and motivational environment. You'll work hard at CFL and you won't be alone. Your peers and coaches will be cheering you on all the way. There is no judgment at CFL, all abilities are welcome.

We coach you to perform functional movements at high intensity, giving you a comprehensive full-body workout in under an hour, including skill instruction, strength building, and cardiovascular conditioning.

Classes are instructor-led and peer-driven, providing an excellent mixture of individual coaching and group motivation. You'll begin with a group dynamic warm-up that gets your joints loose, body moving, and your heart pumping. Then we'll teach you or review the skills you'll need to be ready to safely and confidently start the workout or WOD (workout of the day). You will be coached throughout the workout ensuring that you're getting the most out of your time. Finally, we will conclude our hour with stretching or what we like to call "after care" to keep you coming back for more.

Testimonials

So after going back and forth for about a year before joining, I finally decided to take the plunge after a trainer at my previous globo-gym told me that I couldn't jump rope inside, "because what if someone got hurt". Naturally I had no response to this absurdity, and promptly withdrew my membership. After three months of Crossfit I can honestly say that it's been the highest quality gym/fitness experience of my life. Over the past 15 years, I've held memberships and worked out at probably over a dozen different gym's up and down the east coast. The two common threads at all of those gyms was that they were very machine/isolation-movement centric, and they were staffed with people that were barely qualified to sell a membership. Crossfit represents a refreshing departure from the traditional gym experience. Here, the emphasis is on using simple equipment to develop proper form and functional strength. Increased flexibility, better endurance, better posture, and improved athleticism all naturally follow. Most importantly, the atmosphere is top notch. The coaches are fun, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable, and the class participants share a camaraderie that is completely absent in most traditional gyms. If you're considering joining, I would highly recommend giving it a go.

Crossfit Legitimus is the best. Period. Where else can you get grueling workouts that keep you coming back for more, surrounded by a supportive community of real people who want nothing more than for you to succeed? Everything about CFL makes it one of my favorite places to be. The facts that I will get in better shape and learn more about myself as a person through the workouts alone would keep me coming back, but the people are what make CFL the amazing place that it is. On top of the knowledgeable coaches who will use every tool in their arsenal to help you reach your goals, CFL attracts some of the nicest people I have ever met. Whether you want to improve your fitness, ask for advice from the coaches or athletes, or just want to have a good time surrounded by great people, Crossfit Legitimus is the place to be.

Crossfit legitimus is amazing. Ever since joining, I have been open to trying new things and I'm not afraid to take chances. I'm addicted. It's not just the great coaches that make it worth while, it's the encouragement from your fellow crossfiters that really adds to the whole experience. I am a teenager and I will be doing crossfit for the rest of my life.
