Red River CrossFit is not your typical gym.  We are a community of like-minded people who work and play hard.  Our training philosophy is simple: lift heavy things, move fast, don’t quit.  We use elements of weightlifting, gymnastics and monostructural movements (cardio) to prepare for life outside the gym.  We have members from all walks of life – college students, moms, lawyers, doctors, engineers, military, police, teachers, expecting mothers, bankers and pretty much everything in between.  We have members of all fitness levels – former collegiate athletes and weekend warriors to beginners who have never lifted a weight or run more than a mile.  But all of our members have a few things in common.  They all care about their health, they all want to get better every day and they don’t make excuses.

At Red River CrossFit, we are all athletes.  We work really hard.  We sweat.  We run.  We lift heavy things.  We jump. We push.  We pull.  We throw.  We fail sometimes.  We always get back up and try again.  We support our fellow athletes.  We compete with our fellow athletes.  We learn new things.  We get frustrated. We stretch.  Sometimes we bleed.  Sometimes we hurt.  We don’t watch TV while we work.  We don’t keep our heart-rate in target zones.  We don’t eat food that makes us less healthy.  We get results.

This is who we are & this is what we do.  If  that sounds cool to you – then welcome.  You are about to do things that you once thought were impossible.

CrossFit

This is where it all started for us. We tried CrossFit and it changed our lives. Give it a shot and it could do the same for you. CrossFit classes combine weightlifting, gymnastics and cardio to give you a new experience each time you are in the gym. We plan all of the workouts and make sure you do the movements correctly. You come in and work hard and soon you will be doing things you once thought were impossible.

CrossFit Kids (Coming Soon!)

We are all born with the ability to move properly. Have you ever watched a 1 year old squat - it's a thing of beauty. However, over time life happens and we lose our ability to move so efficiently. But it gets worse - obesity is more prevelant in our children than ever before, and diabetes is showing up in younger and younger children. The good news - diabetes, obesity and even poor movement patterns can be avoided with a good education and active lifestyle. Start your kids young and start them with CrossFit Kids.
