New Year might get all the hype for fitness, but it’s really September that gets the results.
The kids are back at school, normal routines are back on track, and the “new year new you” pressure is nowhere to be found.
And that’s exactly why starting your fitness routine in autumn tends to get far better results than January starters.
If you’re still worried you’re “not fit enough” to walk through our doors, then let us reassure you - You won’t be the only beginner in the room. In fact , you’ll be one of dozens who started exactly where you are.
And if CrossFit still feels like a big first step, our HYROX classes might be the perfect way in: runing, functionional movements, repeat. There’s no Olympic lifting or gymnastics required.
Only 12 weeks stand between now and Christmas. Which is just the perfect amount of time to actually feel the difference.

📣 ANNOUNCEMENT 📣
Today, 13th August, is officially* Wash Your Knee Sleeves Day.
We love you. We love training with you. But we do NOT love standing down-wind of your knee sleeves. You know who you are (if you think this might be directed at you - you’re probably right!).
Do it for your knees. Do it for your PB’s. Do it for the poor soul squatting next to you who’s now breathing through their mouth. Take advantage of the wonderfully warm weather and WASH YOUR KNEE SLEEVES
Post this on your gym insta, your community whatsapps and get the problem solved.
*discliamer - the term 'officially' is used to cause dramatic effect and isn’t actually 'official’ in accordance to anyone in a position of authority.

A new Harvard study just answered a question we get asked constantly... "How much training is actually enough?"
This incredible study tracked nearly 150,000 adults for up to 30 year and researchers found that 90–120 minutes of resistance training a week was linked to...
⚫ 13% lower risk of death from any cause
⚫ 19% lower risk from heart disease
⚫ 27% lower risk from neurological disease.
That's just two to three TRAIN classes a week. If you add regular aerobic activity into the mix, and the reduction in risk climbs to 45%.
Which is exactly why CrossFit + Hyrox is such a strong pairing. CrossFit builds the strength, Hyrox builds the engine.
At TRAIN, you can do both. You don't need to do more - You need to do this.

If you've been putting in the hours and not seeing the results, it's probably not your discipline problem, it's likely to be a programming one.
Exercise physiologist Dr. Stacy Sims has spent 20 years researching how women's training needs change with age and her research (recently broken down by .co) lines up closely with how we already coach here at TRAIN.
Heavy lifting over light reps. Sprint intervals over steady-state cardio. Impact training for your bones. High intensity for your brain.
Swipe through for the science and why it's already built into your programming at TRAIN.
