Many of our new clients are intimidated when they first start training with us. All around them are athletic people performing incredible physical feats. If you take a look at our Leaderboard, you'll notice that the bar is being set continually higher as people progress.
But these athletes are all just ordinary peole like you, doing extraordinary things. No matter what your ability (or perceived lack of) is, you CAN improve. It's not impossible. You just need to be willing to overcome your fears and do your best. Let the people around you be a source of inspiration rather than intimidation. Impossible is nothing.

: LOUISE FOLEY - "I've never been this lean, strong and fit in my life! It made me think about what I was like before...... My idea of a good workout then was a 20min run around the block, 3x a week. I was too intimidated to walk into a weights room. I had chronic back pain. I didn't want to do squats and deadlifts because they were "manly". I think getting my first chin-up is what got me hooked... And the best part of all is that I've still got heaps more improving to do!"
: DANIEL SADLIER -I just wanted to pass on how stoked I am overall with crossfit. I am starting to notice additional muscle, particularly on shoulders and arms where I have been unable to make any progress in the past given that I had been carrying my shoulder injury for so long. That definitely helps motivate me to keep coming along in the early mornings.
: NICK LINTON: Out of 120 applicants, I had the fastest time on the Firefighter Job Scenario's Course. The functional, 'old school' workouts at Crossfit NZ are what I believe have given me the edge. Thank you for helping me discover what Crossfit is all about, correct my techniques and to really push my body to its limits and beyond!
