Best Personal Trainers in Bellingham, WA

CrossFit is as hard as you make it. If hard is what you are into our gym is right for you. You can make the most out of your own workouts with the amount of effort you put into them. If, however, you prefer a moderate workout our gym is still right for you. We will help you modify the workout so that you get the level of challenge and intensity you are into.

Our coaches will ask you in your first class if you have any injuries or any problems in your body before starting the workout. If you have back or knee problems for example the coach will help you find a way to reduce the strain on your back with a scaling option.

The CrossFit model is to train two to three days in a row, followed by one day of rest. This will maximize your results and ensure proper recovery for your body. However, we know that many people have responsibilities outside the gym that prevent an optimum training schedule. In that case, training three days per week is good too and you will still see many positive health results.

Gaining muscle size like you see on tv is really, really hard, especially for women. Most of the people you see on tv who are big and bulky are likely on a program of that consists of weight training two times per day, high caloric intake, supplements, and maybe even steroids. Yes, we do lift weights and yes you will get stronger, leaner, and more tone. If you would like to gain size, you would want to come to our barbell classes and let our Barbell Coach know your goals and maybe do some personal training.

Scaling in CrossFit means adjusting movement, the resistance, and/or repetitions to your current ability and fitness level. We stress the importance of proper movement patterns and technique. If there is a move that for some reason you are not able to do that day we can substitute a different movement for you. If the load is too difficult, no problem, we can use a lighter weight. If there are too many repetitions in a workout for you, that is an easy fix, we can reduce the repetitions. Our coaches do this every day for our athletes. CrossFit is something that every single person can do, at their level.
