What’s a CrossFit Auckland Women workout like?
No workout session is repeated during a four-week cycle. We keep your interest and your curiosity levels high in anticipation of the workouts. Approximately 30min will be dedicated to skills training and development; over the course of a 8 weeks this will progress you through the fundamental exercises found in CrossFit prescription. The coach will then brief the workout of the day (WOD), and ensure everyone is set up with exercise progressions that suit their current capabilities. When you arrive you should warm up and stretch until the coach begins the session. The skills training component will thoroughly prepare your body for the workout to follow. We also allow time for a cool-down session after each workout. You will enjoy the combination of personal attention and social interaction that CrossFit Auckland Women allows.
What if I can’t perform a certain exercise?
We will instruct you how to perform a modified version of the exercise as an alternative. This will develop the required strength and skill progressing you toward the prescribed exercise.
Can I bring a buddy?
Yes, if you have a friend who is considering CrossFit Auckland membership, we offer a free teaser workout on Saturdays at 8am. Your buddy will need to sign a waiver upon arriving. Be sure they come prepared with the necessary items. If you like, you can also book in with them for free.

What if I miss a workout?
As a package programme, we encourage you to attend all three CrossFit Auckland Women training sessions as consistently as possible. But on occasion if you know in advance you are going to miss a session due to un-changable circumstances, book in for a WOD on the regular timetable as a substitute.

This programme is not suitable for those with a condition or injury that would put themselves or others at risk of harm during the course of a training session. If in doubt consult your GP or specialist for a full medical screening prior to commencing any exercise routine.
How do you measure results?
Our assessments are based upon a series of Bench Mark Workouts that are repeated over the course of the 8 week programme giving you a baseline to measure against. It is highly motivating to see weekly evidence of your ongoing progress and development.
We also encourage members to keep a training logbook to track your daily workouts. You will definitely feel and see the results, but looking back to where you started and seeing how far you’ve progressed is very rewarding. We’re big on recording data – it never lies!
