Brightside CrossFit

CrossFit is a strength and conditioning program designed to promote broad all-around fitness. CrossFit classes are different every day and can be modified to help athletes of a wide range of ages and abilities improve their general fitness. Each 60 minute CrossFit class starts with a guided warm up, includes technical instruction and drills to help you improve your movement mechanics, features the Workout of the Day (WOD), and sometimes ends with a guided stretching and mobility session.

CrossFit WODs are designed to help athletes improve across 10 general physical skills: cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy. WODs are built on a diverse set of functional movements that are integral to daily life; things like squatting, hinging, pulling, pushing, and jumping. Workouts often incorporate equipment like jump ropes, dumbbells, kettlebells, and barbells. You can expect the length and intensity of the WOD to vary from day to day.

Classes are capped at 12 people and you must sign up in advance. We recommend attending at least three classes a week and not more than six.

Please note, while we strive to make classes accessible to a broad range of abilities and experience levels, CrossFit is not a good fit for everyone due to the inherent limitations of the group class format. If you have injuries or movement limitations, please feel free to contact us so we can help you determine if CrossFit is right for you.
