Call it what you want – a lifestyle, a fitness regimen or even a cult – CrossFit has proven itself to be an extremely effective means to getting stronger, fitter and faster. The core principles are simple: with a focus on functional movements like squats, pushes and pulls, CrossFit workouts are constantly varied and performed at high intensity. For the uninitiated, it can be brutal, with some sessions short and fast, others long and exhausting. Priding itself on being scalable for any fitness level from the complete newbie to the seasoned pro, the beauty of CrossFit is that it can be performed by anyone, anywhere, at any time. Just start a timer and get after it!
But, regardless of where you’re at on your CrossFit journey, it pays to have the right support and tuition. Because CrossFit utilizes complex movements like Olympic Lifting and gymnastics, it’s crucial to have the right technique before you jump into your first workout. And the right technique comes from the right coaching. Having already covered the best CrossFit gyms in Sydney and Melbourne, here’s the lowdown on the best Perth has to offer.
