CrossFit Princes-Évêques (Porrentruy)

CrossFit is a strength and conditioning training method.

CrossFit combines athletic strength, weightlifting, gymnastics and endurance sports. The word "CrossFit" comes from "Cross Fitness", a combination of different pre-existing physical and sporting activities.

CrossFit practitioners run, row, climb rope, jump, move objects, practice Olympic weightlifting movements and bodyweight exercises, and use dumbbells, gymnastic rings, boxes, kettlebells, bags and any other objects that can be used for training.

CrossFit focuses on ten athletic skills: endurance, resistance, strength, mobility, power, speed, agility, psychomotor skills, balance and precision.

The CrossFit program aims to increase work capacity in these different areas by triggering neurological and hormonal adaptations through various metabolic pathways. The variety of training sessions, the use of poly-articular movements and the high intensity of work mean that CrossFit practitioners are ready to adapt to any physical effort encountered on a daily basis.
