Testimonial


Adam is helping me regain the athletic vigor I had in my youth. Remember that sensation of running with abandon? In addition to the muscle tone and power improvements, I feel like I’ve had a butt lift because my glutes are finally getting some intelligent workouts. Adam’s methodology is more effective than anything else I’ve tried, and he is the most knowledgeable trainer I’ve ever met. He is intuitive, and knows how far to push me, or when to back off for a more restful, regenerative workout.

My athletic resume includes state champion bodybuilder, certified yoga/Pilates/aerobics instructor, former rock climber, collegiate varsity athlete, etc. I thought I knew a few things about keeping fit. When I learned about CrossFit, I hooked up with Adam, and I’ve just signed up for a third round of training sessions with him. After being stuck in a rut, I’m excited about learning Olympic lifting technique, improving my track workouts, learning gymnastic moves and having a blast along the way. Adam has mastered everything from kettlebells to CrossFit to lifting – each workout is different, and uniquely designed for my capabilities and current state when I show up – he reads me like an open book. Adam coaches me on a variety of topics including technique, form, rowing sprint strategy, diet and rest days. Who could ask for more?

World-Class Fitness In 100 Words:


Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.

CrossFit is the principal strength and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide.

Our program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. Our specialty is not specializing. Combat, survival, many sports, and life reward this kind of fitness and, on average, punish the specialist.

The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience. We’ve used our same routines for elderly individuals with heart disease and cage fighters one month out from televised bouts. We scale load and intensity; we don’t change programs.

The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind. Our terrorist hunters, skiers, mountain bike riders and housewives have found their best fitness from the same regimen.

Thousands of athletes worldwide have followed our workouts posted daily on this site and distinguished themselves in combat, the streets, the ring, stadiums, gyms and homes.

We also publish the CrossFit Journal designed to support the CrossFit community detailing the theory, techniques, and practice used by our coaches in our gym, in essence bringing your garage or gym into ours, making you a part of the CrossFit family.

We offer seminars, trainer certifications, and training and regularly provide consultation services to athletic teams, coaches, and police and military agencies throughout the free world.
