Imagine this: if you were struggling the lose weight, would you wait until you lost weight before you sought a dietician? Or, what about if your car was struggling to start in the morning, would you wait for it to not start before seeking out a mechanic? The obvious answer is no. You would seek out the help of an expert to guide you through the challenges, regardless of where you currently stand—whether that’s in nutrition or your car.
This same logic applies to fitness. If you want to improve your health and fitness, it makes sense to start with the program that has proven to be the most effective for building overall fitness: CrossFit.
Starting a running program to prepare for CrossFit is like taking a science class to improve your math skills. While there may be some overlap, it won’t give you the full range of benefits needed to achieve your ultimate goal. You don’t get fit to do CrossFit; you do CrossFit to become fit.
We understand that walking into a CrossFit gym for the first time can feel intimidating, but it’s actually one of the best places to start. CrossFit trainers are skilled at modifying and scaling workouts to meet you where you are. Much like a dietician can break down macro nutrients of foods and offer nutrition goals, a CrossFit coach will guide you through functional exercises in a way that suits your current fitness level.
Starting CrossFit is easier than it might seem. At CrossFit Marrickville we offer a FREE Intro to CrossFit. This session is designed to help you understand how sessions are run, get a ‘Baseline’ measurement of your fitness and answer any questions you may have. From this session you are integrated into class where you will be assisted from one of our 2 coaches on that class, using progressions and modifications to give you an amazing workout, keeping you safe and healthy.
Everyone who has started CrossFit remembers how tough it was to get started. Our first workout is something we’ll never forget. That’s why the CrossFit community is so welcoming to newcomers—we’ve all been there. We’ve faced the challenges, worked through the doubts, and pushed through to success. And now, we’re excited to support you as you do the same.
