Questions we get a lot...

Do I need experience or some minimum level of fitness?

No. Our workouts and exercises scale to any level. We have trained clients from seventy-four year old grandparents to people with all sorts of weight and physical limitations.  They have all done great, and so will you!  We pride ourselves on our ability to match the right movements with the right people at the right time to produce measurable results.

I have/had an injury. Is CrossFit still for me?

Members have successfully used CrossFit to rehabilitate from minor injuries. Because we have to move, work, and play in the real world regardless of injuries, learning and understanding proper form is the best way to a long-term healthy lifestyle. Using functional movements, we will slowly build strength and range of motion. Our trainers and coaches are always happy to work with you to tailor workouts to your abilities. If you have a more serious injury, we ask that you consult your physician before starting this (or any other) exercise program.

Is it possible to skip the trial workout and come to the Workout of the Day (WOD) class?

We take these cases on an individual basis. Typically, we like everyone to complete the free baseline workout so our trainers can get a good gauge of your movement patterns, athletic ability and discuss your personal needs and goals.  E-mail us to discuss.

Will CrossFit make me bulky?

Generally, adding bulk takes a concerted effort with a large nutritional element. If you want to get bulky we can do that, too.  Remember, CrossFit is scaleable in all directions.

I’m just visiting, but I’m a CrossFitter. Can I attend a WOD?

We welcome experienced CrossFitters from all over the world. Please call or email first to set up a class time. When you arrive, be sure to let your coach know your level of CrossFit experience and if you have any limitations.  If you’re a beginner, let us know that as well  (yes, we’ll still let you work out).  We have a $20 drop in charge.

What if I don’t want to join Trident CrossFit but would like to work with one of your trainers one-on-one?

You are more than welcome to do so. You can read about our staff on our coaches page and email us for more info on how to be matched up with a trainer. Our rates vary from trainer to trainer, and there are discounts available for those looking for longer-term agreements

Do you take credit cards, cash, and personal checks?

Yes, we accept cash, personal checks, MasterCard, Visa, and Discover.  Sorry AmEx, but you are way too expensive and we like to keep our rates low.

Do you have showers?

Presently, no, but we have large restrooms and plenty of paper towels.

Can I come to Trident and work out on my own?

No. We offer classes and one-on-one sessions, where people work out under a coach’s supervision, as it yields better, safer, and faster results than having people simply use the facility alone.

We also have open gym hours available to our Unlimited members.

Are there any other rules I should know about?

I’m glad you asked.  The three rules of Trident CrossFit:  1. Be safe, 2. Have fun, 3. No hands on hips!
