Crossfitness

Crossfitness is about core strength and fitness practising varied functional whole-body movements - often with kettlebells, barbells, free weights, etc. We create an intense training atmosphere with music and lots of motivational shouts. You will learn many of the technically difficult exercises such as Turkish get-up, thrusters and jerks, as well as gymnastic exercises such as pistol squats and handstand push ups.

A typical crossfitness class will consist of a warm-up, technical training followed by a workout. The duration of the workouts is short and takes place with high intensity. The degree of difficulty can vary. In addition to that, we also work with trigger points and mobility training.

THE PERFECT ATHLETE

Crossfitness is about becoming the perfect athlete and being able to master many technical exercises within powerlifting, Olympic lifting, gymnastic exercises, as well as being good at strength and cardio. We strive to improve within all parameters during the course of the classes, - getting closer to the goal of becoming the perfect athlete through challenging and hard training sessions.

PROGRESSION AND TECHNICALLY DIFFICULT EXERCISES

Crossfitness is practiced by many athletes worldwide. Although it is a sport that can demand a lot, if you want to master everything within the sport, everyone can take part in cross fitness at Vejle Idrætshøjskole. We start with the fundamentals and work on from there.

The classes will focus a lot on technical training and at the end of the course, you will have acquired knowledge within some technically difficult exercises, especially in the gymnastic exercises and Olympic lifts. We will always offer an alternative, if an exercise becomes too difficult.

Mette Bjerre

The target for crossfitness is the perfect athlete. That is a major target, but it is amazing to supply the students with the tools and skills to reach such a target.

I have been practising and councelling others in crossfitness for several years. I have experienced for myself the great physical results you can achieve by practising crossfitness. It is an activity that requires focus and endurance. However, you will often see and feel a big difference even after a short term crossfitness course here at Vejle Sports School.

Getting to know myself and my physical limits through strength training is very motivation to me. Being able to teach, test and council others in this field is awesome. Whether it is crossfitness, flexibility, lifts, or something else, I look forward to supporting you on the short or lon run.
