Rule number one of CrossFit is to always talk about CrossFit. If you haven’t quite caught on to what seems to be one of the biggest fitness trends around these days, it’s likely that you have at least one mate who lives and breathes the CrossFit lifestyle. This is the friend with a Whoop strap permanently planted on his wrist, whose Instagram feed is a highlight reel of his latest workouts, and whose inner circle are all athleisure-wearing CrossFit enthusiasts who enjoy spending their weekends cheering one another on before attempting a ridiculous, albeit gruelling, routine themselves.
The CrossFit train isn’t slowing down, that’s for sure. While some of the exercises performed in the gym might seem bewildering to anyone who is yet to try it, what you find at a CrossFit gym is a community of like-minded souls who are amongst the most supportive people you can count in your social circle. CrossFit isn’t just about performing high-reps and becoming stronger, it’s also about challenging yourself to get our of your comfort zone, push past your limits, and become better in every sense of the word – physically, mentally, and emotionally. It’s not hard to see why it’s creating such a buzz.
So, to help you out on your quest to become the next CrossFit champion (or at least see what all the fuss is about), we’ve rounded up 10 of the best CrossFit studios across Sydney that will welcome you with open arms. Offering classes, designed workouts and metabolic conditioning, you’ll also find some of the most experienced coaches in the country. Look no further than the following studios if you’re intent on giving CrossFit a go and get ready to embark on your one-way ticket to Gains Central.
