CrossFit Bude brings the sport of CrossFit to Bude, offering a unique approach to fitness. The programme was born in 2000 but was influenced by founder Greg Glassman's early athletic experiences in gymnastics. Glassman discovered that by incorporating dumbbells and a barbell into his training, he could achieve greater strength than his peers who focused solely on bodyweight exercises.
The philosophy of CrossFit is to achieve overall physical preparedness, rather than specialisation in one particular area. The programme aims to enhance 10 key physical qualities, including cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy.
CrossFit Bude offers a refreshing alternative to traditional workouts found in gyms and health clubs. Instead of isolating specific muscle groups and focusing on longer aerobic sessions, CrossFit Bude promotes compound movements and shorter high-intensity cardiovascular sessions. They have replaced exercises like lateral raises and leg extensions with more functional movements like push press, pull-ups, and squats.
Many professional and elite athletes from various sports have embraced the CrossFit Programme, including prize-fighters, cyclists, surfers, skiers, tennis players, triathletes, and more.
If you are looking for a fitness experience that promotes passion, community, and teamwork, CrossFit Bude is the place to be. Join their welcoming and supportive environment and experience the benefits of CrossFit training.
