Our Classes
A training program that builds strength and conditioning through extremely varied and challenging workouts. Each day the workout will test a different part of your functional strength or conditioning, not specializing in one particular thing, but rather with the goal of building a body that’s capable of practically anything and everything. At CrossFit South Bend we take your training very seriously. Whether you are a complete beginner to CrossFit or a competitive athlete, we have a place for you within our gym walls. Our general CrossFit programming has a main emphasis on longevity and health first, then performance. It is inherently an intermediate program with scaling options that make it suitable for a beginner to thrive or to bridge the gap to becoming an advanced CrossFit athlete to get into our Competitive CrossFit program.
Our Fundamentals courses is designed to fit YOUR schedule and give you the personal attention you need. You tell us when you want to schedule your Fundamentals, and we make it happen. This course is required for anyone new to CrossFit. This course consists of 3 One Hour Personal Training Sessions – In each, you will learn about the foundational movements of CrossFit. Our absolute highest priority is making sure you learn and execute all movements safely and efficiently. You can be confident that we will not push you to the next exercise until we make sure you are ready. You’ll never need to worry about the risk of serious injury because we will teach you every proper movement and lift before we increase intensity or add weight.
This is a strength and conditioning program designed to build bigger, stronger, more explosive athletes with more horsepower. The demands of athletes are universal. If you can run, jump, sprint, change direction, and are strong and powerful, then you will be successful. These are the goals that we are working towards. We will get there by lifting heavy, conditioning (metabolic, sprint, jumping), and working with the mentality of “Train Fast Be Fast.” Another key principle is building strong posture and position through the use of external forces, external resistance, and external elements to challenge posture and position. Why is posture and position important? Your ability as an athlete to sprint, jump, change direction and tackle is all dependent on whether or not you can maintain good posture and position through full ranges of motion.
The best workout in the world won’t work without the right nutrition. We’ll help you find the right diet for your body type, goals and particular health needs. If you’re struggling with certain health issues or even if you feel “perfectly healthy,” nutritional guidance is critical to your success in fitness and health.
