The purpose of this article is to give you an insider's understanding of what Crossfit Hoboken Roofers is about.
For starters, this is completely different than anything you may have done in the past. The reason why it has kind of an underground secretive following is that it's hard.
The fitness industry loves to sell "magic solutions" to the masses. The latest you may have seen on TV is the shake weight. In the ads a body builder shakes a device that makes people think they only need this one thing to have the bodies of their dreams.
If it's not a fancy device you can own for a payment of $19.99 or so, it's a fad diet, or pill.
I'm sure you're smart enough to know there's a little more to it than that.
Sadly most of the gyms that you see in Hoboken or other towns are heavily dependent on advertising and promotions, lots of glossy ads, with a lot of sizzle and barely any steak.
This business model is very good at getting lots of members quickly, but it isn't as effective as giving members measurable tangible results.
It's not much different than the ads you see on television, local gyms are designed to appeal to the masses, and if you look at the results the masses are getting it should really make you question if that is the kind of program you would like to subscribe to.
Crossfit Hoboken is the complete opposite. It's not a fancy place to meet people, while it does have a tight knit community; the social aspect is a secondary benefit.
Crossfit Hoboken will challenge you. It is required that you take the Fundamentals class to learn proper form on core lifts like squats and deadlifts, and even Olympic lifts like the snatch and power clean.
Here a coach certified in Olympic lifting, and Crossfit will teach you the basics so you get it right. At conventional gyms an $8 an hour employee will show you how to turn the treadmill on and off, and from there you can happily go about your day.
They don't care if you break a sweat or not, but at Crossfit, the only way to fail is to not show up.
