THE PREP COURSE
[what] What we like to call “The Prep” is designed to introduce new clients to the fundamentals and essential movements often seen in our group classes. The Prep is a course that teaches proper movement, recovery, mobility strategies, and a crash course on nutrition & lifestyle. This beginners program ultimately gives our clients the tools to make their time at CrossFit Austin life changing. 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 stuff is what we’re all about.
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 consistency being a focus. Regular exposure to the movements will adequately prepare each client 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 ‘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.
[structure] The Prep = 1 Month of CrossFit Austin
If there’s one thing we take seriously, it’s quality over quantity. Yes, we care about each and every person who walks through our doors on a deeper level. You aren’t a dollar sign or a name on a sheet. You’re a member of our family. In our opinion, there’s no way to teach anyone new to CrossFit quality movement and technique in a short amount of time. Thus, our introductory course that isn’t a cram session squeezed into a few day’s time. It’s an investment of a month on both ends. You meet with your coach 3x/week for 4 weeks, learning the ins & outs of what CrossFit and CrossFit Austin is all about.
1 month | 12 Sessions Just show up; we’ll do the rest. The Prep course you enroll in will meet 3x/week for 4 weeks. Structured like a CrossFit Class, your Prep course classes will be at the same time each day throughout the course length for 1-hour. Just show up, we’ll do the rest (we mean it!) – Your coach leads you through the hour class, from welcome, to warm-up, to workout with the learning in between.
1 Coach | 6 athletes The Prep Course is limited to 6 clients per course to ensure everyone gets quality, semi-private coaching, and our coaches can focus on teaching instead of managing.
With limited space in each course, wait-list opportunities are available.

Since then the world realized “You’re only cool if you stretch your groin”.
In all seriousness regular stretching and foam rolling your groin has a myriad of benefits from helping relieve knee and lower back pain to improving the bottom of your squat, and giving you a stronger set up position in the Olympic lifts. I like the KISS method for mobility so you won’t find any bands or fancy contraptions in our stretching series below. Good ole fashion gravity will be doing the work in these stretches, and the whole routine should take no longer than 10 minutes. Lastly it’s important to remember not to be over aggressive when stretching, if a stretch gives you excessive pain or any numbness discontinue immediately.
Groin on the Wall Stretch
Lay flat on your back with your butt all the way against the wall
Let your legs fall to side and spread as far apart as possible
Relax your feet do not pull your toes back or flex your calves
Take long deep breaths through your belly, gently increase the stretch as you exhale
Frog Stretch
On your forearms and knees, face down on the floor point your feet out, and let your your knees spread wide
Using your forearms to gently push your hips back and keep your chest as close to the floor as possible
Take long deep breaths through your belly, gently increase the stretch as you exhale
Lizard Stretch
This stretch will also incorporate the hip capsule and hip flexors
Kneeling on one knee, lower your hand or forearm to the ground
Try to keep your torso as close to the “up” leg as possible
Take long deep breaths through your belly, gently increase the stretch as you exhale
Standing Groin Stretch
Standing up prop a straight leg up on a box or elevated surface so your foot is above your waist
Increase the stretch by slowly squatting with leg you are standing on
Take long deep breaths through your belly, gently increase the stretch as you exhale
Those are the stretches now here’s the routine.
3:00 Groin on the Wall Stretch 2:00 Frog Stretch 1:00 Lizard stretch right leg 1:00 Lizard stretch left leg 1:00 Standing Groin stretch right leg 1:00 Standing Groin stretch left leg
This is a great series of stretches to do on a daily basis at night or in the morning if you have “tight” hips or are experiencing some knee ache while squatting. Its also great to do before class especially on days that include lunge, squatting, or Olympic lifts. Enjoy!
