Your first workout at CrossFit Forbidden will be a fun and efficient experience. Each class starts with a dynamic warm-up, then it’s skill training, instruction and movement standards for the WOD (workout of the day). When your trainer says “3-2-1 Go!” the challenge begins and our community of athletes push themselves and encourage others to achieve elite fitness.

Athletes that have completed “Foundations” with us or at another CrossFit Box may join scheduled WODs. For your first class, please arrive a few minutes early to meet our members, trainers and get to know our box.

You will feel successful and part of a community of athletes, many of whom you did NOT expect to be CrossFitters. You’ll have a better understanding of how classes are run and the method behind what we do. And it’s likely you will have learned new things, be a little bit “sore” and excited to come back for more.

CrossFit is about variance and adaptation. We believe the body is a whole system, and strengthen it as a whole. We welcome everybody and pride our gym in our friendly, supportive member base.

Every workout is led by a certified CrossFit trainer and you’re joined by like-minded people who want to be and feel better.

CrossFit teaches 9 Foundational Movements. The mastery of these 9 movements correlate directly to the efficiency of the exercises performed during your workouts and transfer to the development of other skills you often see in WODs.

They are:
Air Squat
Front Squat
Overhead Squat
Shoulder Press
Push Press
Push Jerk

And various others

While this list may seem foreign or intimidating, please note that every one is modifiable and scalable to meet your skill level and needs.

No… Really! There is a common misconception that CrossFit is for elite athletes. The truth is that it is for EVERYONE. Sure, we say that we are “forging elite fitness” and we are. This means that you start the journey where you are today. And if you stay on our path, it’s likely that you will get into the best physical, emotional and psychical shape of your life.

Our community is comprised of competitive athletes, former athletes, working professionals, stay-at-home parents, people that had never stepped foot into a gym and people with physical ailments. Our program is the most efficient, most effective regimen for everyone. Allow us to get you into the best shape of your life.
