Each day the workout will work to test a different part of your functional strength or conditioning, never putting the focus on one particular thing (not specializing) with the goal of building bodies that are capable of anything and everything that life can offer.
The WOD (workout of the day) will have the prescribed (Rx'd) weights, distances, reps, etc - but can always be scaled based on age, ability and skill level.
If the workout calls for squats with 165lbs but you can only squat with the barbell (35 or 45lbs) then that is what you'll do. Or, if the number of reps is too many, we'll reduce them to work within your capabilities.
The coaches are there to lead workouts, provide feedback, help push you, and to ensure you are moving safely. They will always focus on form first and push intensity second.
CrossFit has helped benefit both my personal strength and sport development
"I absolutely love CrossFit and our small town box.
I like moving my body with a purpose and always challenging myself. CrossFit has fit those needs perfectly. The class atmosphere keeps me accountable and helps me to push myself more than I could on my own. I love not having to plan my own workouts and always having something new to learn or improve upon. I seriously love coming here both for the people and watching my body do things I once would have never thought possible!"
I started with Carstairs CrossFit in Jan 2020 having no background in CrossFit or even a gym, I was nervous about going, but after my first class I knew that my only regret was not doing it earlier. The WOD’s are always different, and I constantly notice the improvements in my strength and fitness. The coaches are excellent and always help to push and motivate you while at the same time putting in the extra time to perfect your technique.
From the coaches to all the other members you feel like you become part of a family with positive motivation. It is truly the best part of my day.
CrossFit Carstairs is a community that welcomes everyone into the gym! All fitness levels can succeed at CrossFit as that Luke and Michelle are experts at providing modifications that work for each individual. Lots of class times offered to accommodate everyone’s busy schedule.
I am stronger than I ever thought possible, mentally and physically, and I owe it all to CrossFit and the community it has created.
Give it a try, I guarantee you won’t regret it!
Joined the CrossFit team 4 years ago, never thought it could change my life so much. I hadn’t found a workout routine that I loved doing and that my body reacted to since having kids. Never in my life would I have thought that I would be doing pull ups and hand stand push ups at 40 yrs old. It’s the best way to start my day... even at 5am. The coaches, the people, the atmosphere, the energy when you walk in is just amazing.
My CrossFit experience with CrossFit Carstairs for the last 4 years has pushed me outside of my comfort zone in the best way possible. Whether you are beginning your fitness journey or just new to the group style setting, it offers a great pace for everyone. The coaches provide support beyond the daily WOD, be advice on nutrition or recovery. I enjoy being able to set new goals for myself and appreciate the support from both coaches and other members to achieve those goals. And finally my favorite part of CrossFit Carstairs is how I feel when I walk out of the door at the end of the day. Energized, happy and strong. I encourage everyone to take the most difficult step and just walk in the door. You won’t regret it.
Our classes are all coach-led, with functional movements scalable to any ability level. So, you're basically getting small group personal training for less.
