Let's get right to the point: you want results. period.

Hey, we can't blame you. That's what we look for when we're in search of a service. Funny enough, the mainstream norm oftentimes falls short of the expectations for results, and the fitness industry makes no exception. Mainstream gyms are daunting and intimidating, offering little to the new and inexperienced. A monthly membership is simply an entrance pass into the lion's den, where new members are left alone to figure out how to get fit. What kind of "aid" is that!?

At Bay City CrossFit, we believe that fitness is personal, regardless of age or ability. The combination of exercise, nutrition, injury rehab/prevention, and even mental training are all harmonious elements of a successful training program. Our programs are all specifically tailored to your goals. And helping you achieve those goals is our greatest pursuit.

 

 

What is CrossFit?

We do one thing very well: get results. All we ask is that you come and give 100%.
CrossFit is structured to train in small group settings. This develops motivation, camaraderie and also adds a little friendly competition.
Private training sessions are available if you need a little help getting started or just want a little more attention.

Unlike most gyms, you will not find any machines in our facility.

The core of the CrossFit program combines Olympic style weightlifting, bodyweight exercises, rowing, and gymnastics with the use of kettlebells, ropes, rings and more.  This type of training is completely functional and 100% of it will transfer from the gym to every facet of your life.  Conventional gyms offer expensive equipment that isolate muscles that were never intended to be isolated. The muscles of the body function in harmony with one another, and are rarely isolated.

CrossFit is a core strength and conditioning program. We have designed our program to elicit as broad an adaptational response as possible. CrossFit is not a specialized fitness program but a deliberate attempt to optimize physical competence in each of ten recognized fitness domains. They are Cardiovascular and Respiratory endurance, Stamina, Strength, Flexibility, Power, Speed, Coordination, Agility, Balance, and Accuracy. The CrossFit Program was developed to enhance an individual’s competency at all physical tasks. Our athletes are trained to perform successfully at multiple, diverse, and randomized physical challenges. This fitness is demanded of military and police personnel, firefighters, and many sports requiring total or complete physical prowess. CrossFit has proven effective in these arenas.

Aside from the breadth or totality of fitness the CrossFit Program seeks, our program is distinctive, if not unique, in its focus on maximizing neuroendocrine response, developing power, cross-training with multiple training modalities, constant training and practice with functional movements, and the development of successful diet strategies. Our athletes are trained to bike, run, swim, and row at short, middle, and long distances guaranteeing exposure and competency in each of the three main metabolic pathways (pictured below).


We train our athletes in gymnastics from rudimentary to advanced movements garnering great capacity at controlling the body both dynamically and statically while maximizing strength to weight ratio and flexibility. We also place a heavy emphasis on Olympic Weightlifting having seen this sport’s unique ability to develop an athletes’ explosive power, control of external objects, and mastery of critical motor recruitment patterns. And finally we encourage and assist our athletes to explore a variety of sports as a vehicle to express and apply their fitness.

 

 

Our program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive.  Our specialty is not specializing.  Combat, survival, many sports, and life reward this kind of fitness and, on average, punish the specialist.  The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience.  We’ve used our same routines for elderly individuals with heart disease and cage  fighters one month out from televised bouts. We scale load and intensity; we don’t change programs.  The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind.  Our soldiers, skiers, mountain bike riders and housewives have found their best fitness from the same regimen.
