What Kind of Workout Can I Expect in CrossFit?

Ask anybody who has been doing CrossFit for a while, and they will probably tell you that one of their favorite things about the CrossFit workout is that the workouts are intense—but they are pretty short. CrossFitters are in great shape, thanks to WODs that consist of a combination of sprints, gymnastics, plyometrics, and Olympic weightlifting. Deadlifts, squats, snatches, cleans, overhead presses—they are all designed to provide participants with better fitness and less body fat in as few as 10 weeks.

The camaraderie among CrossFitters is second to none, and it is just one more reason to love CrossFit workouts. At CrossFit Gold Rush, we pride ourselves on making sure our “box” is warm and welcoming to newbies as well as veteran athletes. Plus, working out with a group of other fitness enthusiasts will go a long way in keeping you focused and on track. And a little friendly competition among CrossFitters never hurt anyone!

Don’t worry about getting bored with CrossFit. Every day at CrossFit Gold Rush brings with it a new, challenging WOD (workout of the day). The class structure includes a warmup, a WOD—which may consist of a strength portion to work on specific moves—and a cool-down/stretch to wrap things up. The entire workout is about an hour, with the highest intensity portion generally being 20 minutes or less.
