No. It will actually be more beneficial if you start CrossFit without any knowledge of how to exercise. You get to learn fundamentals right off the bat, allowing you to develop a great base. Exercising without coaching can lead to improper form, muscular imbalances, and higher risk for injury.
This is the biggest fear that most women have when exercising. That is why you mainly see women on cardio machines in the gym and not in the weight room. Women need to incorporate strength training more than men because they are at higher risk for osteoporosis. Your bones are not going to get stronger by hitting the elliptical everyday.
Also, testosterone is required for a person to develop large muscles. Women have 1/10 the testosterone as men which makes it impossible to develop huge muscles naturally. The huge and buff women you see are are either taking testosterone injections, eating a diet geared towards “bulking”, and working very differently than women who are not trying to achieve large-size muscles. Have no fear of getting bulky.
CrossFit will actually give women the look they are after. Our program will help you burn fat and increase lean muscle mass. This results in a lean and toned body.
CrossFit is safe when done correctly. In our Foundations program, we teach you proper mechanics for these functional movements, and continue to review them in the regular group setting, as safety is a priority for us. We first teach you proper mechanics, we drill them consistently then we add the intensity.
Remember, any activity can result in injury. CrossFit is safer than most activities because we incorporate movements your body is meant to do in a controlled environment.
Many people hurt or tweak their lower backs, knees, shoulders, etc. and are afraid to exercise those areas. The problem with avoiding those previously hurt areas forever is that they never get strengthened. This is disaster waiting to happen. You create muscular imbalances by training other areas of your body and avoiding the problem area. You become stronger everywhere else but at the same time that problem area gets weaker in comparison. This actually increases your chance for that area to be reinjured.
CrossFit can be used as rehab for injuries. Many people have come to us, unable to Squat (get yourself up from a seated position), Deadlift (picking up your groceries), Press (putting something up on a shelf). CrossFit teaches you how to move properly and exercise with correct mechanics, which in turn helps you regain functional capacity.
At this time we do not have showers or towel service; however, we do have changing rooms.
We do not offer childcare services, but we do have a safe place for children to play while their parents workout. You are responsible for monitoring your children during training sessions.
No, but plenty of street parking can be found up and down Fair Oaks Ave. on both sides of the street. Please read all posted signs on all streets for any restrictions.
