Crossfit Navitas

Love this place! I started going to Crossfit a couple of months ago after getting sick of my two friends coooonstantly rave about it. It seems that when one is attending Crossfit, the opposite rule to Fight Club applies — you must tell everyone, all the time. So, to be honest, this put me off. I didn’t want to become one of those Crossfit people always talking about Crossfit. Crossfit Crossfit Crossfit. Yet here I am now. Talking about Crossfit.
So, for those who don’t know, this is how it works:
— You first have to sign up for six ‘fundamentals’ classes — these are one on one hours where you learn exactly the correct way to practice each exercise.
— You then pay monthly and go along as many times as you want. I pay for the off-​peak lunch time slots which are 120 per month.
— Each class is split into three sections — warm up, strength, and really intense 10 minutes or so of the Workout Of The Day.
This type of exercise is likely unlike anything you’ve done before — it’s intense, very specific, and so effective for the time you put in. It’s perfect for anyone to start and can work for all levels. The best thing about it in my opinion is how much it is encouraged to push yourself beyond where you think you can go. It’s really quite incredible what you can do, how much you can do, when you go that little bit beyond your perceived limits. The trainers are there — who are excellent — and will encourage this, but — and this is important — safely. Technique, and correct, safe technique is king here, and rightly so.
I would highly recommend anyone who’s been thinking about it to give it a month, you’ll not look back.
