Do We offer Crossfit or Crossfit-type training?

Short answer is “No” – we do not offer Crossfit Training. If you are set on finding a Crossfit Gym in Richmond you may search for an affiliate  at www.crossfit.com/affiliate-list

Over the last few months, I have encountered a few people who think that we what do at APEX is similar to Crossfit or that we specialize in “group training”. Even with the term “semi-private” many still think that our members are doing the same workout at the same time in a group setting. This is completely inaccurate, our Semi-Private Classes are more similar to a Personal Training Session, which is what makes our gym so unique. Each of our members  receive a  completely customized program based their goals and our assessments, and individualized coaching attention despite being in a class.

If it is still unclear, I will illustrate this with a spectrum or hierarchy diagram:

Personal Training

1:1 Personal Training
– individualized programming
– highest coaching attention

APEX Semi-private Training Model (2-4 clients/trainer)
– individualized programming
– high coaching attn

______________________________________________________________________

Group Training

Crossfit or Crossfit-type training
– not individualized programming (everyone does the same workout), but often scaled to the individual’s level
– varying coaching attention (depending on coach to member ratio)

Bootcamp
– not individualized programming (everyone does the same workout)
– usually low coaching/supervisory attention due to high # of participants

With that being said, we do have ONE true group training class – the weekly APEX Strength & Conditioning Class, only for our semi-private training members.  This class functions as a supplement to our members’ semi-private sessions to introduce them to new exercises/workouts and spice up their training.

So if you have not tried APEX Semi-private Training and are interested in tasting the APEX training experience, including our Strength & Conditioning Class, please contact us!
