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. CrossFit programming delivers a fitness regimen that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive.
Workouts of the Day (WOD’s) are designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience. In CrossFit we scale work load, intensity, and duration to keep the body from acclimating to a set regimen.
The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind. At Arkaios CrossFit we focus on functional movements that are required to live a full, healthy, and physically independent life.
New to CrossFit
For those new to CrossFit, we start you with our Foundations program before continuing on to Group classes. In this class, you learn the 9 fundamental movements.
- Air squat
- Front squat
- Overhead squat
- Shoulder press
- Push press
- Push jerk
- Deadlift
- Sumo deadlift high pull
- Medicine ball clean
All of these movements can be adjusted to ANY fitness level.
The classes build on each other and increase in complexity as the month progresses. For safety and to respect other member’s time, there is a $50 fee for any missed Foundations class. We understand life happens, so first make-up class is free.
Classes are kept to a minimum of 15 students to allow for adequate coaching/member ratio. Safety is our highest priority!
Registration is required as classes begin the at the start of each month. Foundation classes are Tuesday/Thursday evenings from 7 – 8 pm.
Please contact us with any questions or concerns, we are here for your success.
We look forward to seeing you at the box and showing what all there is to love about CrossFit!!
CrossFit Games
The Games were created to fill a void — no other true test of fitness existed. From Ironman triathlons to the NFL, all other athletic events neglected to accurately test fitness. Even decathlons, while testing a relatively wide range of abilities, missed vital components of physical fitness.
CrossFit Games events are made up a broad range of functional movements. Functional movements move large loads, long distances, quickly. These movements also form the basis of our exercise program. Make no mistake — the CrossFit Games are designed to test, not train fitness. The goal is to find the fittest athletes, not to produce an easily replicable workout program.
