HAS THE FITNESS INDUSTRY LET YOU DOWN?
DO ANY OF THESE STATEMENTS SOUND FAMILIAR?
I Don’t Know Who to Trust?
There are so many different theories and strategies out there. Which one is right for me?
Nobody Believes Me
I’m really trying, but nothing is working. My body seems to be naturally fighting against me and it’s not a fair fight.
I Feel All Alone
Fitness is a long, lonely journey. Gyms are so sterile and cold. Working out at home is even worse. I need some accountability and connection. Maybe even a friend.
Diets & Exercise Plans - OMG
I’ve had it with following trends and fads! I start out excited and enthusiastic because I want them to work, but…not so much. Frustrating!
It’s Freakin’Boring!
If I see another treadmill or elliptical machine, I’m gonna scream! If I have to work this hard, can’t I at least have some fun too?
I’m Not Fit Enough to Begin
I’m so far behind. I’m not sure it’s even safe for me to begin exercising. I could get hurt or just plain look stupid.

GET FIT FOR ANYTHING
At Catamount Crossfit, we know you want to be the best possible version of yourself. You want to feel good about yourself, be confident, and look your best. Most people think they simply need to increase their cardio and lose weight to achieve their goals. While weight loss and cardio could be part of your fitness story they’re not the whole story. As we get older, both men and women need to shift their thinking from “burning fat” through cardio to building strength and bone density through constantly varied fitness.
The problem is, most gyms focus on cardio to achieve weight loss which means hours of huffing and puffing on machines, spin classes, or aerobics classes. These aren’t bad things, but you’ve probably gotten bored, gotten frustrated, or see-sawed between weight gain and weight loss while working on your cardio solution. It’s frustrating and leaves you feeling like a failure.
You are not a failure. You’ve just been missing a key component in your fitness and that’s not your fault. It’s the fitness industry’s fault. It’s just a fact that, as we get older, it is more difficult to lose belly fat (subcutaneous fat). It’s part of life. Unfortunately, continuous strain at a high heart rate actually increases belly fat, especially in women between 35 and 60 years old. Now that’s frustrating!
That’s why we offer proven Crossfit methodology that combines a wide variety of exercises, including Olympic lifting, stretching, weight lifting and cardio to help our athletes increase strength and change their body styles. What’s really cool, many of our athletes crush their goals without losing any weight at all. They get stronger, fitter, and more toned and their weight stays the same.
Let’s talk about the elephant in the room - Crossfit. Crossfit has gotten a bad rap and it’s Crossfit’s fault. Images of the glistening bodies of the pros doing things like handstand walks and peg board climibing make Crossfit look intimidating and exclusive. I’ll let you in on a little secret:
Our goal isn't for you master handstand walks (unless you want to). Our goal is to walk with you every step of your fitness journey and help you get fit for life.
Our athletes range in age, size, ability, and gender. But the things that we have in common are as numerous of the things that set us apart—we work hard together, we welcome any and all comers to our amazing community, we are well coached and cared for, and we celebrate transforming and gains.
So, if you want to end the seesaw relationship you have with weight gain and weight loss, and you want to focus on the one proven methodology for transformation, it’s time to get started.
