What is Crossfit?
CrossFit is a training program that builds strength and conditioning through constantly varied and challenging workouts.
Each day the workout will test a different part of your functional strength and conditioning with the goal of building a body that’s capable of almost anything.
At Crossfit MidHudson we’re committed to working with people of all ages and fitness abilities. The beauty of CrossFit is that anyone can do it!
That sounds like a lot!
Starting new things is hard so we want to let you know as much information about how things work here so you can feel safe coming in and knowing what to expect.
We have a couple of different options to meet your needs depending on your own preferences and fitness levels — and remember, all the workouts we do we scale to meet individuals needs. Read on for our options to get started!
Option 1
Personal Training
“I need a helping hand to get going”
We often hear from folks who have been working for months to get in shape to come — well we got you! No matter where you are we can work with you with 1:1 personal training sessions to get you comfortable in the gym and learning the techniques for all the exercises safely and efficiently.
Come in for personal training! We’ll work with you in blocks of sessions til you feel confident. We offer 30mins for $40 or 60mins for $70. We’ll spend the time to focus on your personal goals and document your progress.
When you are ready we’ll get you joining our group classes. We’ll work to up the intensity at a pace to suit you and scale the movements as you need. If you only ever get this far, that’s fine too!
Option 2
On Ramp
“I think I’m ready to jump in!”
Ready to get stuck in? Come join us for your first class for FREE and we’ll show you the ropes. For this ‘On Ramp’ class we’ll introduce you to the fundamental movements of CrossFit, show you around the gym and what to expect in class, and we’ll have a consultation to discuss your health and fitness goals.
The On Ramp session is a simple as coming to one of our classes. We’ll get you set up with how everything works and the fundamentals of CrossFit. We’ll have you sign our waiver and document your goals to work towards.
Once you’ve taken then On Ramp class and feel confident you can attend any of our group classes on the schedule. We’ll get you set up and running with a membership!
