Wednesday
CrossFit

Metro CrossFit & Training Center
1610 E. 4th Street
(704) 900-7760
Class description: CrossFit is like no other workout you’ve ever experienced. The easiest way to describe it is as a strength and conditioning program that is constantly varied with high intensity and functional movements. Classes are about an hour in duration and follow this format: :
- Dynamic warm up/stretching
- Skill work – we work a skill/movement that is frequently performed in workouts like muscle ups and handstand pushups
- Strength work – squats, deadlifts, bench press, etc.
- “MetCon” (metabolic conditioning), commonly known as the WOD – Workout of the Day
- Cool down – stretching and mobility work utilizing bands, foam rollers and lacrosse balls
Everything we do can be scaled to allow for different fitness levels or injuries/physical limitations. Whether you are just getting started with working out or have an existing injury, we can modify or scale the exercises and work load so that everyone can participate. Our goal is to ensure you are working towards your potential with maximum effort in a safe environment.

Hi! Question about your Body Pump 6-7p Thurs class: How early would you suggest arriving before class? I have never been and wasn’t sure how packed it usually is? (I am a DOWD Y junkie, but want to try something new
Thanks!!
Hi Becca – there’s usually a good crowd but there’s always more space/equipment. So no need to get there super early. Please introduce yourself – would love to see you in class!
Sounds great! I will def be there Thursday!! Thanks!
Hi Jen! Are you still teaching at the Dowd one weekend/month?
See you Wednesday night!

Can you fit a personal fitness training session in for me on Thursday afternoon?
Is this still your teaching schedule? How much does it cost per class? I would like to come and join in on a class because I live close to Charlotte. Thanks!
Jen – About to move to Charlotte ….. Have been doing Body Pump / Les Mills for 7 years —– WHY aren’t there any in Charlotte? Are the Ys there planning on adding them anywhere else besides downtown? I am thinking Harris YMCA??
Thanks!
