What is CrossFit all about? In the words of CrossFit's founder, Coach Greg Glassman, CrossFit is: "Constantly varied, high-intensity functional movement which elicits an unprecedented increase in work capacity, measured across broad time and modal domains" Say what?! Here's a shortened version: "Constantly varied functional movement, executed at high intensity" If you're interested in joining CrossFit Ramstein, give us a call or e-mail and we'll pencil you in for the next Orientation/Fundamentals class.

You will not learn everything you need to know about CrossFit overnight--it is a lifelong learning experience. But we believe this learning experience is possibly one of the most valuable of its kind. Not only will you achieve a level of fitness beyond what you've ever expected, but you will also discover new things about yourself. You will develop a confidence in your abiliites in and out of the gym, you will make lasting friendships, and you'll have a lot of fun doing it! Is it too bold of statement to say that CrossFit is a life-changing experience? No...not by a long shot, because it most definitely is. It's up to you to come on out and give it a try and see if it is in fact for you. And if you discover that it is for you, then you will know nothing else of "conventional" fitness. Two words: CrossFit works!
