Foundations

We will cover CrossFit methodologies, focusing on bodyweight movements and lightweight implements. We’ll teach you the basics, emphasize proper technique, and wrap up the session with a kick-ass workout. After you’ve completed your four Foundations classes, you’ll have the option to schedule a nutrition session with Coach Landree to learn more about what our nutrition program offers.

What to Expect

Each session a coach will teach and demonstrate the foundational movements we use in CrossFit, as well as review the range of motion and various scales to get you moving safely. Following the instruction portion of the class, you will participate in a CrossFit-style workout. You’ll get sweaty, and you’ll have fun! Once you’re competent in the movements we’ve reviewed, you may participate in our regular CrossFit classes and get the full CrossFit experience!

You will also have the option to include a one-hour session with Coach Landree to discuss nutrition! Here is what you’ll get in that nutrition hour:

  1. We’ll review the CrossFit nutrition pyramid and discuss why the very foundation of CrossFit is nutrition (literally, Nutrition is the foundation of the CrossFit pyramid!).
  2. We’ll discuss how you can apply CrossFit’s perspective on nutrition to other dietary lifestyles (like veganism, paleo, vegetarianism, etc.).
  3. We’ll talk about your own personal history with nutrition, and where you currently are in your nutrition journey. You can also ask any questions you may have!
  4. You’ll be provided with baseline suggestions regarding your protein, carbs, and fat intake, depending on your goals.

No prior CrossFit experience required. Great for beginners wanting to learn and progress.
