Frequently Asked Questions
1. But I’m not in shape, can I still do CrossFit?
Of course! CrossFit is designed to give you a broad, general, inclusive fitness. Sure, you have to work for it, but you don’t have to already be an olympian when you come in for your first workout. In fact, we love working with ordinary people just as much as we love working with world-class athletes. That’s good news for us because the vast majority of people are ordinary, by definition. Anyway, don’t be afraid to get up off the couch and come see us. We’re here to help. Read why scaling workouts can be a good thing here.
2. I’m an endurance athlete, should I do CrossFit?
Yes! As a matter of fact, Jenna specializes in training Endurance athletes. As an Ironman triathlete, distance runner, and cyclist, Jenna knows a thing or two about training for endurance sports. CrossFit makes a great supplement to your endurance training, and actually allows you to cut back a little on your specific sport training. CrossFit will deliver a broader, more general, more inclusive fitness than what your endurance sport can give you. Jenna can also design a training program that will help you excel in your sport with a minimum of time investment. So whether you’re looking for a winter-time break from riding the bike trainer, or for a year-round supplement to your training, come on in and talk to Jenna about how CrossFit can help your performance.

5. But I don’t play sports, why should I do CrossFit?
CrossFit is about more than training to excel in your sport. If you don’t have a sport, that’s just fine. At Bridger CrossFit we teach you to move efficiently and effectively, and we help you become stronger and healthier, so that you can remain independent and keep doing all of the sport OR non-sport activities that you love to do. Gardening, cooking, working on cars, and walking the dog all require a body that is strong, healthy, and fit.
6. I’m too old/too young!
You are never too old OR too young to start CrossFit. If you think you’re too old, come on in and talk to one of trainers. We can address your concerns and help you realize that you’re never too old to slow down your aging process! And if you’re a kid, you may join one of our Kids Classes!
7. I did CrossFit once. The workouts were too short and I didn’t feel like I got a workout.
CrossFit can seem counter-intuitive. Our workouts are short but very intense, and they produce results. All the magic happens with the intensity, but it takes practice to be able to push yourself that much. Each gym is its own entity, and while you may has similar expereinces in one CrossFit gym, you may have a very different one in another. Come on in, talk to a trainer about your concerns, and give it another shot. You might be surprised this time around.
