Get Prepped at CrossFit Austin

The Prep at CrossFit Austin – Starting August 4th!

What is it?
We’re launching a new program here at CFA! The Prep at CrossFit Austin will start on Monday, August 4th. Designed to introduce those new to CrossFit to the fundamentals and essential movements often seen in many of our group classes, The Prep will be a multifaceted course that teaches proper movement, recovery & mobility technique, nutrition & lifestyle guidelines; training that ultimately gives our clients the true {life changing} sense of the power of the CrossFit methodology. We’re not just movers and shakers at CrossFit Austin – we’re thinkers, too. Producing athletes that train smart, work hard and also know their shit is what we’re all about.

What’s in it for you?
Train Smart| We’ll teach you to lift & move proficiently
Dedicated time working on the technique of CrossFit Movements over the course of 12 classes, with technical mastery being a focus. Consistent exposure to the movements will adequately prepare each for success in the group class environment. Quality over quantity in your movement is our goal.

Work Hard | We’ll teach you to recover effectively
The body repairs and strengthens itself in the time between workouts; it’s in this time that the body adapts to the stress of exercise and the real training effect takes place. Learning what and how to fill this time outside of the gym is our goal.

Think Well | We’ll teach you to eat efficiently
The individuality and uniqueness of our clients are what makes our community a phenomenal place to thrive in their training. Nutrition can’t be a ‘cut and paste’ for each individual – there’s no cookie cutter way to properly eat. Revolutionize the way you view nutrition and eat over the course of 12 classes and learn what works best for your ID.

What you get:
1 month | 12 Sessions
Just show up; we’ll do the rest. 3x/week for 4 weeks

1 Coach | 6 attendees
The Prep Course will be limited to 6 attendees per time slot  to ensure everyone gets quality, semi-private coaching

Prep Guide | Setting you up for Success
The Prep Guide will include all the nutritional, lifestyle, and training  lessons that we cover in class. The Prep Guide will serve as a reference and a tool for you throughout your time at CrossFit Austin.

Extra  Credit | Fitness beyond the gym
The Prep Course will also  include specific training and recovery techniques to be utilized outside the walls of the gym. We’ve found that many of our athletes want to go the extra mile and this is our way to ensure they do it safely and effectively.

 

When is it?
There are two course times available, both beginning on Monday August 4th.
Morning | Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 6:30 am
Evening | Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 6:30 pm
**Can’t find a time that fits your schedule? Contact us and we will set you up for our Private Prep Course

Murph Follow Up

MURPH was yet again a success! 

We paid tribute to the fallen Lieutenant Murphy, we honored our country in celebration of our Independence, we ran, pushed, pulled, squat and ran some more, and we came together as one to support one of our own. 

 A heartfelt thank you to everyone who came out for MURPH on the 4th!! 

Together, CrossFit Austin and CrossFit Valor raised $3239.72!

 We truly proved what the power of community and the force human connection can have as we came together, sweat together, worked together, and bound together!

A message from Genevieve:
Words cannot express how incredibly grateful we are for the love, support, and generosity of this community. Losing a brother has been the most difficult thing I’ve ever had to go through, but having my CFA and Valor family by my side has helped tremendously. On behalf of myself and my family I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have never felt so blessed. 
*From my mother: 
There is no way I would’ve made it through this so far without all the caring, love and prayers from everyone. Thank you all so much.
