CrossFit is a brand of Functional Fitness. Bodybybrando is also a brand of Functional Fitness. We share a lot of similar philosophies around wanting to improve our physical capacity across broad physiological adaptations and creating well-rounded athletes, however, we are not affiliated at this current time and there are many differences between the 2.
You will see similar movement patterns [squat, deadlift, press, olympic movements and gymnastics] and workout styles [For time, EMOM, AMRAP etc], however, we have a unique programming and coaching structure that we believe is up there with the best in the world.
This is our philosophy:
“To us, fitness isn’t just going for a 5km run, squatting 200kg, doing some yoga or repeating the same bodybuilding workout you have been doing for years.
It is not any single modality but a combination of them all, allowing you to complete specific tasks and improve your ability to handle life’s demands at higher capacities [whatever they may be for you].
It should include global benefits and a general state of physical preparedness so that you can do more and live life to it’s fullest, without restrictions.
Your training should challenge you in a different way each and every day, both physically and mentally.
We encourage you to run towards adversity, be accepting of the mundane, and strive to do common things, uncommonly well.
It should include a combination of physique, strength, fitness, flexibility & skills so that you are constantly moving towards “fitness” and away from “sickness”.
Your training should leave you feeling happier, healthier, more accomplished and “better than yesterday”.
Lastly, fitness is best when done with friends who share similar goals to you.
This is why our community is the best going around!
