GETTING STARTED IS EASY
1.
CHECK OUT OUR TIMETABLE & MEMBERSHIP OPTIONS
Everybody is unique and we all have different time constraints. Check out our current timetable and membership options to see if our class times will work around your schedule and then choose which membership option suits you best. When you contact us let us know which membership you are interested in. All our memberships are contract free, so if you are not sure if the schedule will work for you, you can always try it for a month and cancel before your next payment if it doesn't fit with your routine. We will also get you in for a trial session so you can see if it is for you before you sign up for membership.
2.
INTRODUCE YOURSELF
You can either send us a message via Instagram, Facebook or email. We would love to hear what your goals are, what you currently do or have done, so we know where you are at with your fitness journey and what you want out of it. It is OK if all you want is to get a bit of fitness in during the week, have some fun and make it a bit social! If you do not have any specific goals, that is fine! Remember we make you fit and strong, you do not have to start out fit and strong!
Once you have introduced yourself we can arrange to get you in for a trial session during the week. The trial session costs £20, and if you decide you want to join, we will take that £20 off your first month.
3.
ENJOY GETTING FIT & STRONG
Getting fit is hard if you do not love what you do. Staying fit is even harder! We hope you will love what you do and meet similar minded people on the same journey. This is what will keep you coming back and you will soon look and feel like you are in the best shape of your life!
QUESTIONS?
+ How do I sign up?
Get in contact with us via our Instagram, Facebook or email, and we can arrange for you to do a trial session during the week. First class is £20, and then if you want to sign up after that, we will take that £20 off your first month.
+ How long does it take to see results?
Results take time, but if you are consistent, they will come. If you are a beginner, results will come fairly quick, potentially noticing a difference in your strength and fitness within 30 days. This obviously depends how consistent you have been and how many classes a week you attend.
+ How many classes a week do you recommend?
If you are a beginner, we recommend starting with 3 classes a week, with the goal of working up to 4-5 a week after your first few months. It may take a while for your body to get used to training at that intensity, so listen to your body and know you will need recovery time between training days.
+ Do I have to be fit to join?
No! No matter what your current fitness level is, we start you off slow. You do not have to be fit or strong to start, we make you fit and strong! Every workout is designed to help you succeed, improve fitness, and move you toward your goals. Our program is designed for universal scalability, making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience.
+ What kind of exercises can I expect to be doing during class?
A typical CrossTrain class will include a strength portion in which you’ll work on something like Olympic weightlifting, deadlifting, squatting, or bodyweight strength (pull-ups, dips) or you may work on a skill like handstand push-ups for example. After the strength or skill portion of the class is complete, most days will involve a workout that was programmed for that specific day. Workouts are usually between 5 to 20 minutes or more. Tuesdays and Saturdays are an exception, where we go long with the workouts, around 40-45 minutes, so on these days we rarely have a strength/skill portion before. Saturday is our fun team and partner workout day, which is normally a highlight of everyone's week of training!
+ Will I ever have to run?
Yes! We run! To build a high level of fitness and for maximum results, running is part of our program. You probably won't have to go for a 5k run or anything in our classes, but you may have some shorter stints of 200-600m runs paired with other movements. You do not need to worry though, we scale everything down for anyone who struggles with running, we realise running can be very daunting for some.
+ Do I need to bring water?
Yes, ideally. Although we do have free tap water you can fill your bottles with. We do also have water, coffee, NOCCO, Tenzing, Barebells and other snacks and drinks for purchase.
+ What shoes do I need to wear to my first session?
Any sports shoe is fine. You do not need anything specific for your first session. I would avoid excessively bouncy carbon plated running shoes though, as they are not very stable for lifting.
+ Do you have any changing rooms or showers?
Yes and no! We do have some changing cubicles upstairs, unfortunately however, no shower facilities.
