CrossFit & Group Training

This is the biggest misconception about us. People think they need to be ‘super fit’ before they start training.

That is the equivalent of saying you want to run a marathon, but you are going to start swimming for two months to get ‘super fit’ before you start running!

The best way to get ‘super fit’ is to start moving – here at 365 Performance we meet you where you are at right NOW and treat everyone as an individual. If you haven’t done anything for a long time (or at all) the last thing we would want you to do is do 1,000 squats and burpees on your first session and not be able to move for a month and never come back again! It’s all about creating the space for you to have success after success each time you train with us.

We get you to ramp your intensity up as you build your foundation of fitness, mobility and strength – no being thrown in the deep end doing stuff you aren’t ready for!

It’s a sad fact but the truth is 90% of the population have injuries these days. We work with people who have had disc bulges, back surgery, knee reco’s, arthritis, strokes, dislocations, etc…

The first thing we do at 365 Performance is run you through an in-depth movement and mobility assessment to see where you are at. From this a lot of people who don’t have any injuries find out that they have areas of imbalance that would eventually lead to an injury if we didn’t pick it up first!

Most injuries and issues we have with our bodies come from areas of imbalance and weakness. We pick these up and put a plan in place to fix and manage them. At the same time any areas of concern that are identified are simply let known to the coaches so they can amend the sessions accordingly. You don’t need to worry if you have dodgy knees or a bad back – we make it work!

A common misconception with training in general is that you need to train 5-7 days per week – That couldn’t be further from the truth!

On average our clients train with us 3x per week and get amazing results. It isn’t about quantity but QUALITY.

You are able to train with us 6 days per week (Mon-Sat) if you like, and many of our clients do as our weekly program is structured and periodised… But if you are new to training or don’t have heaps of time 3 sessions per week coupled with focusing on our nutrition practices is more than enough to get the results you are after.

Yes, you will get injured if you do CrossFit… If you are thrown in the deep-end and get told to do everything that people who have been there for years are doing and don’t have a strong foundation, are doing too much too soon, aren’t coached properly, or train at a gym that doesn’t have any standards or is run by a person who has just done some weekend course (this happens far too often).

The way we do things at 365 Performance is all about doing things the right way, to set you up for success from day one:

1. A proper movement and mobility assessment on your body first
2. Teaching you how to move safely and efficiently before you even think about lifting anything heavy
3. Scaling the workouts so you don’t do too much too soon and cause injury
4. Having standards before you progress into more advanced movements (eg: having a certain amount of pull-ups before you learn to kip, having certain mobility pre-requisites before you squat snatch)

It’s because of the above we don’t do free trials, or have people start our classes before any assessment and on-boarding. We would much rather take the time at the beginning to set you up for success than rush things at the start like other facilities do and have you get injured a couple of weeks in.

We have many clients come to us from other facilities where the coach seemed to have some issues with their ego and got excited from making people vomit out the front or not be able to walk for 3 weeks.

This is never beneficial for anyone looking to actually get results from their training as the stress on the nervous system and the body is far too detrimental.

We progress the intensity level as you progress with your fitness level. During the first couple of weeks we would much rather you leave your session feeling like you could have done more than crawling out of here… The former keeps you driven to come back for more, while the latter makes it 100x easier for you to bail and give up.

It’s really simple. Just organise a FREE CONSULT. From there we will discuss your goals, training history, and decide which one of our on-boarding options are best for you to start with us.
