The next cycle of The Prep at CrossFit Austin will start on Monday, February 16th. REGISTER HERE
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 shit 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 give a shit 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.

PRIVATE PREP COURSE
[what] For those that can’t make our available Prep Course classes or would prefer a more private introduction to CrossFit, we offer the “Private Prep”. You get all the great resources and coaching we provide in the Prep Course in one-on-one, private training with a coach. Due to the smaller more flexible setting we are able to expedite The Prep process and get you through the material quicker.
[structure] The Private Prep = 5 Private Sessions
No different than our regular Prep Course, the Private Prep focuses on quality instruction. Structure is a bit different though – You and your coach will meet for 5 private training sessions based on your scheduling. Each session runs for one-hour.
2 Weeks | 5 Sessions Just show up; we’ll do the rest. 5 private session over the course of 2 weeks scheduled at your convenience. Your coach leads you through the hour’s session, from welcome, to warm-up, to workout with the learning in between.
1 Coach | 1 Client The Private Prep Course is a one-on-one private introduction to CrossFit. Your coach will take you through the Prep Course curriculum in 5 private sessions, and tailor the program to your individual needs.

While everyone wants to look and feel better, it can be a challenge to know how or where to start. The Whole Life Challenge focuses you on the key areas of your life that produce real, life long changes. Playing together with your friends and family in a fun and motivating daily game, you’ll create new healthy habits that last long after it ends.
The Whole Life Challenge focuses on 7 daily habits that you will learn and create for yourself as you journey through.
Eat by the WLC rules you choose at {the level that is right for you}. Make conscious choices that support your vision for a healthy lifestyle. Earn up to 5 points daily for nutrition.
Exercise for at least 10 minutes each day. We recommend 3-5 “workouts” each week. The other days you’ll earn your points by being active. Ride your bike, surf, hike, even take an invigorating walk at sunset. This is your time to move daily. You earn 2 points for exercise.
Stretch for at least 10 minutes each day. You earn 2 points for stretching.
Water One third of your body weight in oz. of water each day (20 ml per kg). You earn 1 point for water.
Supplement with a dietary supplement that would make a difference for your body if you took it every day. You earn one point for your supplement.
Live the {WLC weekly lifestyle practice} – things like sleep, meditate, & supporting others. You earn 1 point each day you complete the weekly lifestyle task.
Reflect at the end of each day and check in with how it went and how you’re doing. No amount of numbers can paint the whole picture. Your daily reflection helps you see how the challenge is really going. You earn 1 point daily for your reflection.
The {Challenge} begins with taking your preliminary measurements and completing a scalable workout that will be repeated at the end.
Throughout the 56 day challenge you will post your scores in the 7 categories listed above. The Challenge is designed in a way that we can work as a team to check in with and support each other on a daily basis. CrossFit Austin, in addition to programming, will also be hosting weekly Saturday Educational and Support Seminars to help you along the way. Our {Coaches} are participating on different levels and will be able to help you out as well!
To close out the Whole Life Challenge, you will repeat the preliminary measurements and workout to gauge how far you’ve come! But, it doesn’t end there! The Whole Life Challenge is designed to help you make healthy lifestyle changes that last.
You can register through the Whole Life Challenge {website}. Once you have registered, you can join Team CrossFit Austin (under the “My Profile” tab) to participate with the community!
