CrossFit St. Louis Introduction Classes (Free)

CrossFit is constantly varied, high intensity, functional movement. We train using the three major tenets of the CrossFit method: Metabolic Conditioning, Gymnastics Movements, and Weightlifting. These movements will be combined in seemingly random groupings to provide a variety that keeps your body challenged and improving in multiple fitness zones. We will do this by focusing on the mechanics of movements first, consistency of movements second, and finally, by encouraging ever increasing intensity of work.


During our free 1-hour intro session, we will introduce you to the philosophy and major components of CrossFit. You will learn a little about why we do what we do, and you will receive hands on experience with a CrossFit Workout of the Day (WOD).


We will be sure to discuss with you:
