Thanks to CrossFit Leominster and my perseverance, I am unashamed to be wearing
a bikini in Florida this week! First time in about 10 years I haven't felt self-conscious about
it.
– Julie B.
I've lost 22 pounds so far. How many guys do you know can say I'm 51
and in the best shape of my life.
– Brian B.
In six weeks I have accomplished 100% more than I have ever done before,
and I have tried a lot a lot of things. I feel better about myself than ever before. I feel
powerful and strong.
– Carollyn S.
The workouts here... I detest them, and highly recommend them.

CrossFit in 100 words
Here is a great summary from CrossFit Founder Greg Glassman in less than 100 words on how to achieve fitness:
Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat.
Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast.
Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense.
Regularly learn and play new sports.
-Coach Greg Glassman

Is CrossFit For Me?
Our functional workouts are tailored to each individual's fitness level. The class adjusts to
each unique person, so from elite athletes to couch potatoes, everyone gets an outstanding workout,
in a friendly and safe environment.
What this means is that regardless of your current level of conditioning, regardless of whether or not you are currently ready for beach season, regardless of how much time you have 'let yourself go,' CrossFit Leominster will help you.
Results of the daily workouts are measured and recorded to provide you with actual empirical data that tracks your progress and keeps you on your path to exceptional fitness.
Technically CrossFit is defined as "a strength and conditioning program that uses constantly varied, functional movements at a high intensity." But 'high intensity' is a term that has a different meaning for each person. We will help you find the appropriate level of scaling which will challenge you, but also allow you to succeed, and make progress towards your goals.
How do I Start?
Show up. This is the absolute most critical step.
If you are new, we will teach you. If you are out of shape, we will get you in shape. If you are scared, we will hold your hand. If you need to be motivated, we will drive you to compete. It is what we do.
At CrossFit Leominster we do not throw you into the fire. We do not feed you to the wolves. We do not drop you into the deep end. Everything we do is done with consideration and calculation.
Check out our class schedule. Pick a time. Try a class for free. See you at class.
