The beauty of CrossFit is that every day is different. We work on mastering functional movements and constantly varied exercises. The focus on health and fitness through functional fitness at high intensity means that your fitness goals can be met in a safe and effective approach.

Our standards for coaching are the highest around and each class is led by an experienced coach starting with a dynamic warm-up and mobility.  Soon after that is a strength or skill element which is followed by the workout, typically some type of conditioning that includes multiple movements!  The class will often end with a short cool down or stretch.

REMEMBER! You don’t have to be in great shape to start! So many people come to CrossFitOP who haven’t exercised in a very long time. We teach them how to move correctly, which keeps them injury-free and inspired to continue pursuing their health and fitness goals.

** Before starting in the group CrossFit classes, you’ll want to attend our Essentials Course! We require this for all people new to CrossFit.

When getting started with your fitness journey, we follow a specific path to ensure your safety, first and foremost, but also to help you continue working smarter & harder to accomplish your goals as efficiently as possible!

Functional fitness at high intensity means we are doing the movements involved in every day life like squatting, lifting, pushing and pulling at a pace that gets your heart rate up which leads to adaptations within your body like improved cardio, stronger muscles, and decreased risk for chronic illnesses.

But before getting to high intensity, it is extremely important to start with your mechanics.  Your movement mechanics address how you move.  That is why we start with the Essentials Course, so we can assess how you move across various types of exercises and coach you through progressions to improve anything that might be increasing your risk for injury!  After mechanics comes consistency.  That means moving with those proper mechanics often and regularly, like attending  2-3 Crossfit classes per week.  Once we have solid mechanics performed consistently, you can continue along your journey by applying higher intensities to your workouts to promote even greater results and never reach a plateau!
