What to Bring to Your First CrossFit® Class (Checklist)
For your first CrossFit® class you only need four things: comfortable sportswear, training shoes with a stable sole, a water bottle and a small towel. No special kit or accessories. The coach lends you the equipment in the room and adapts the exercises to your level. With that, you’ll arrive ready to train. Here’s the […]
Why list your box in an online directory
Listing your box in an online directory gives you a recruitment channel that doesn’t depend on your website or your social media: it puts you in front of athletes looking for a box to train at today who would otherwise never know you exist. It’s extra visibility, usually free, aimed at exactly the person deciding […]
How to Prepare for Your First Hyrox®: Training and Stations
To prepare for your first Hyrox® you need to work on three things at once: the ability to run with accumulated fatigue, strength endurance across the eight stations, and the transition between running and exercise (what athletes call “jelly legs”). With 8 to 12 weeks of structured training, combining running, functional strength and station practice, […]
Drop-in and fitness tourism: how to attract passing athletes to your box
To attract passing athletes to your box you have to do three things: be visible to whoever is looking for somewhere to train in your city, show a clear drop-in price and let them book without friction.

CrossFit® vs Hyrox® vs Cross Training: differences and which to choose
CrossFit®, Hyrox® and Cross Training are three forms of functional training, but they’re not the same thing. In short: CrossFit® is varied functional training in a group with a different WOD every day; Hyrox® is a standardised race that combines running with eight strength stations that are always the same; and Cross Training is the […]
How to get new members for your box
Getting new members for your box isn’t about a marketing trick, it’s about a well-built funnel: making yourself visible to whoever is looking for somewhere to train, turning that visit into a first class and that first class into a sign-up. Most boxes lose potential members at the very first step, because they’re invisible to […]
What is a drop-in CrossFit® class and how to book your single session
A drop-in CrossFit® class is a single session you book and pay for by the session at a box you don’t belong to, with no monthly fee and no contract. It’s for training while you travel, for trying out a new box before you sign up, or simply for not missing your routine on a […]
How to fill your CrossFit box classes
To fill your box classes you have to work two fronts at once: make better use of the members you already have and open up a new stream of athletes who can’t find you today.
