What is CrossFit?

CrossFit is a rapidly growing worldwide grassroots fitness movement. It combines elements from gymnastics, weightlifting, power lifting, interval training, and aerobic training in a systematic design to train the body in a variety of ways. This approach to fitness creates fit, functional bodies ready for any given task at any given time. Workouts are measured by objective criteria such as time, weight lifted, and repetitions. Highly addictive, CrossFit focuses on perfection of form, a high frequency of variance in movement, and high intensity effort over a short time period. This type of structure and class setting generates results, as well as an atmosphere of competition and camaraderie at the same time.

So that's the surface definition. However, CrossFit is much more. CrossFit is also a place of community and support. It is a place where minds and bodies come to be fullilled. There are thousands of CrossFit Affiliates around the world that breed this mind set, CrossFit Hobbs is no different.  It is a place of pride and success.  Here is a glimpse of what you can expect at CrossFit Hobbs (CFH):

Each month is structured so that exercise volume and intensity is consistent with positive increases in overall fitness.

2. Coaching.   Each class is lead by a professional CrossFit Level 1 Trainer who will take the class through a proper warm up, teach the movements for the Workout of the Day, teach special skills and techniques, observe the class during the workout to ensure safety, and provide performance cues and motivation.

You will quickly find out that we are very different from other gyms. We do not use typical gym equipment.  You will not see members walking around, isolated from one another, not knowing what to do, or how to do it.  You WILL see members working together, cheering each other on, and inspiring one another. While the following video is not in CFH, it still conveys the community and spirit of our gym.
