“So… what actually is CrossFit?”

It’s a question I get asked a lot — and honestly, it’s not always easy to explain.

So I use this diagram.

🏋️ Weightlifting — strength & power
🤸 Gymnastics — control & bodyweight skills
🏃 Cardio — endurance & stamina

We constantly mix and match these elements, using functional movements that train the whole body.

Then we add intensity — the right intensity for you — to create a powerful training stimulus and drive adaptation.

That’s CrossFit.

Constantly varied. Functional movements. Performed at high intensity.

And importantly, it doesn’t mean you need to be fit before you start.

You just need to start.

A little snapshot of this week at the gym.

Strength. Sweat. Progress. Good people.

Different workouts. Different goals. Same commitment to getting better.

Turn up. Put the work in. Stay true.

The space is here.
The kit is ready.
The coaches are ready.

But none of it does the work for you.

You bring the mindset.
You bring the effort.
You bring the willingness to get uncomfortable, learn, adapt and keep showing up.

Because fitness isn’t built by having everything you need.

It’s built by using what you have and putting in the work.

Everything you need to train.
We’ve got the space.
You bring the rest.
And we’ll support you all the way.

You are the only piece of kit you need.

👋 MEET THE COACH: ABBIE

4 years ago, Abbie walked into a CrossFit gym as a weightlifter, watching the evening classes thinking, “That looks like so much fun…”

Fast forward to today and she’s not only a CrossFit athlete, but one of the coaches helping others discover what they’re capable of. 💪

🏋️‍♀️ Level 1 CrossFit Coach
🎓 Level 2 Gym Instructor
📚 Currently completing her Level 3 PT qualification
🔥 Favourite movements: Lunges & HSPU
🤢 Least favourite: Assault Bike (understandable)

But what really stands out about Abbie isn’t her qualifications or her ability to do 7 muscle-ups in a workout…

It’s why she coaches.

Having originally worked as a teacher, Abbie loves the similarities between teaching and coaching — helping people learn, progress and achieve things they once thought weren’t possible.

And perhaps most importantly, she knows what it’s like to feel like you don’t belong in a gym.

That’s something she wants to change for other people.

Because CrossFit isn’t just about getting fitter.

It’s about finding your people, building confidence, doing things you never thought you could do and leaving the gym feeling better than when you walked in.

And that’s exactly what we want South Downs CrossFit to be. ❤️

Go give Abbie a follow, say hello next time you’re in and find out why she has a serious dislike for the Assault Bike 😂

Welcome to the team, Abbie. 🤝

Meet Pete 👋

Head Coach, Co-Founder & Owner of HoldFast Fitness | South Downs CrossFit.

Pete has been in the fitness industry for close to 16 years and has been part of the CrossFit world for many of them. After years working in professional, university and amateur sport as a Strength & Conditioning coach, followed by years of coaching, managing a gym and building a community, it’s finally time to put all of that experience into something where he can truly express his own vision.

HoldFast and is that next chapter — and one he’s pretty bloody excited about. 😂

For Pete, CrossFit has always been about more than just lifting weights and getting fitter. It’s the people, the community, the challenge and seeing what you’re capable of when you consistently turn up and put the work in.

He’s a big believer that when you’ve completed something hard, a lot of things in life suddenly seem a little bit easier.

Favourite movement? Anything heavy.
Least favourite? Probably anything involving running… or going upside down. 😂

His biggest goal with gym is simple: create a space where people feel welcome, can progress, have a laugh and genuinely want to come back.

And after everything it’s taken to get here… we’re only just getting started. 💪
