World Class Fitness in 100 words
Seven Cities
Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.

Forging Elite Athletes
Our Mission: to provide our clients with elite level fitness, to meet their goals of capacity, efficiency, ability and health.
Our Focus: Athletic function and human performance. By focusing on functional movements and universal recruitment patterns, the best, most complete athletes are forged. We view intensity as the key component of any fitness program. In this, we feel that CrossFit is the most complete program to reach these goals. Our training is based on constantly varied, functional movements performed at high intensity. Interval training, static holds, and combatives are used to complete the process. Our focus is on the development of an elite, complete, athlete. “Body image” is not a concern, form follows function. Create an elite level competitor in the ten domains of fitness and the body shape, size, body fat, etc. will take care of itself. We believe that the way you eat determines how you live. For us, feeding the body the proper balance of food is critical for performance.
Our Method: “We use CrossFit as the core of our program; this allows clients to excel in the ten domains of fitness (cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, agility, balance, coordination, and accuracy) From there, we add Sport specific training to improve the fighter, the football player, the tri-athlete
Our Philosophy: By fixing imbalances in fitness, we can improve overall performance and improve capacity and output. We supplement traditional high intensity programming with corrective and preventative maintenance exercises. A balance of all these domains results in improvement in all areas. We help our clients pursue elite fitness and develop to their maximal potential. We strive to challenge our clients to improve their quality of life and enhance their fitness levels through the pursuit of function.
