Thinking about starting Crossfit training in Sacramento. What is your experience with it, if any?

    I took 1 class & LOVED it!! But it was a garage type setting in the cold winter & I was spoiled w/heated gym conditions. Vacaville has 2 or 3 locations so there is a high demand here! I say try it out!!

    I'm a big fan...there is just something about CrossFit!
  • I tried Crossfit in Greensboro for about 8 weeks and I really enjoyed it. It seemed to kick start my weight loss journey. You should definitely try it, but expect to be very sore!

    I have not done it personally but I know several people who do and they all seem to enjoy it.

    The sessions are 40 minutes long and with a group. I'm not sure what to expect but maybe I'll try it out this weekend. It's pricey so I just want to make sure it's worth it!
  • I know your in Sac.. but i tried it for a week for free at Herculesfit and I loved it.. it is pricy thats why i only did the free week lol but it's a great full body work out and even though your with a group it's all at your own pace but your motivated by everyone around you.. you should def. give it a try. =)

    Life changing :) I have recently started documenting my journey with CrossFit, www.poweredbycrossfit.net. Give it a try, it has given me my life back!

    I'm actually giving it a shot tonight. I'm on the east coast, but the one by me is giving me a free two week trial. See if they'll offer you the same?
  • I have a couple friends that do Crossfit in sacramento and they both are enthusiastic about it. It is a butt kicker and a motivator at the same time.

    Agree, it is lifechanging in so many ways! Yes the hardest workout I have ever done and it took weeks to develop a love of Crossfit through the pain but I am now 6 weeks in and starting to see the results, dropping inches, building muscle and seeing so much progress in what I am able to do in class. I LOVE, LOVE it. Kinda pricey but I have not regretted the cost one time. Good luck with it.
