Fundamentals

What is the Fundamentals Course?

In CrossFit, as it is in any well run fitness program, there are some complex movements and concepts acting as a foundation to the entire program. It takes time, careful attention, and concerted effort to learn that which will ensure you are performing safe movement.

The number one priority at CrossFit Norfolk is to ensure that you have all the skills and knowledge necessary to avoid injury and achieve your fitness goals.

Course Structure

The Fundamentals Course is 5 classes of one hour apiece. In order to ensure you receive the best instruction, we limit the class size to no more than 4 athletes. This allows the coach to give highly personalized attention while you learn the most important movements and concepts in CrossFit.

Each class will include a warm up, review of skills learned in previous classes, learning of new movement, workout and cool down/Q&A. A typical Fundamentals session will look similar to this:

6:00 – 6:10 Warm up

6:10 – 6:20 Skills Review

6:20 – 6:40 Movement Instruction

6:40 – 6:55 Workout

6:55 –    ~    Cool Down/Q&A

 

The Fundamentals is an important and necessary step to joining the group classes. It is a great opportunity to get your feet wet as a new athlete as to how the group classes work. We will do our best to ensure you leave the Fundamentals with everything you need to achieve your fitness goals and stay injury free.
