Our definition

CrossFit is a strength and conditioning program, a  fitness methodology and for some a lifestyle – consisting constantly varied functional movements often performed at high intensity. In recent years it has evolved from a localized fitness program to a worldwide fitness community built on the foundations of its founders at CrossFit Inc. and their affiliate gyms or ‘boxes’ such as CrossFit Corydon.

Essentially, everyday is different. Our strength and condition program follows a variety of movement progressions to build strength, confidence and efficiency in movements over time. The workouts themselves often include multiple movements with performance measured by time, rounds/repetitions or load and can encompass a variety of gymnastic, weightlifting and cardiovascular work.
