Most CrossFit classes follow this structure:
\n
\n
Warm-Up (5–10 min): Get loose and prepared.
\n
Skill/Strength (10–20 min): Focus on a movement or build strength.
\n
Workout of the Day (WOD) (10–20 min): This is the heart of the session – and it’s built for every level.
\n
\n
If you’re newer, you’ll do simpler movements like air squats, incline push-ups, or lighter kettlebell swings.
\n
More-experienced athletes might tackle heavier lifts, box jumps, or advanced movements like snatches and handstand push-ups.
\n
Your coach will make sure everyone gets a workout that’s safe, challenging, and just right for them.
\n
Cool Down (5–10 min): Stretch, recover, and reset.

Sergio Landim
Vila CrossFit | Head Coach • 5 Yrs
"CrossFit is the tool that I use to help my community to be healthier. It’s not just about the fitness, it’s about everything that influences a person - the way we talk with each other, the way we keep working hard through a long effort, and the way we miss people that have not come to the gym for a while. CrossFit is so much more than just a method of training. We have saved lives and built lifetime bonds."
Juria Maree
CrossFit Enduro | Head Coach • 12 Yrs
"Through my years on the coaching floor, I have learned the importance of creating a space for folks where they learn new skills, make mistakes, and correct said mistakes after coaching - all in an environment of social support. This has proven so valuable to our athletes that they have introduced their parents, kids, and friends to our gym."
Pablo Cariman
