What is CrossFit?
Prepare to level up
Simply defined as “constantly varied, functional movements performed at high intensity”. A melting pot of cardio, weightlifting, gymnastic and bodyweight movements, endlessly adaptable to meet you at your current fitness and ability level.
Every class at CrossFit Cumbria is carefully coached from start to finish. You’ll be guided through a clear workout briefing, structured warm-up, the main workout, and a cool-down — all within a 60-minute session.
A way of training that’s engaging, exciting and challenging, designed to keep you progressing and motivated. You’ll never be bored in the gym again.
CrossFit can help you achieve your goals, whether you’re an elite athlete or brand new to exercise. Our coaches are here to support you every step of the way and help you become fitter and stronger than ever before.
What about Hyrox?
In March 2025 CFC affiliated to Hyrox.
Hyrox is the sport of fitness racing, combining both running & functional workout stations, where participants run 1km, followed by 1 functional workout station, repeated eight times.
Our Hyrox classes focus on improving cardiovascular fitness, combining running with functional, full-body movements. It’s simple, effective and scalable, allowing you to work at your own pace regardless of fitness or experience.
Our Hyrox classes can help you achieve your goals, whether you’re looking to feel a bit fitter, preparing for your very first race or aiming for the World Championships. No matter where you’re starting from, everyone trains together — at their own level — and our coaches are there to support you every step of the way.

Getting Started
What are you waiting for?
We are changing the way we run our Intake courses – welcome to The Fundamentals
The Fundamentals are a rolling programme of 13 sessions covering everything you need to know to start CrossFit and a little more. These sessions will be open to those brand new to CrossFit and our existing members too, so we can all brush up on our basics.
These sessions are designed to coach you step by step through the fundamental movements and training methods of CrossFit in a fun a supportive small-group environment.
As of January 2026 these sessions will run on Wednesday nights at 7.30pm and Saturday mornings at 10:30am.
If you are brand new to CrossFit, please get in touch and we can advise you when the fundamentals starts from session 1. This will give you the best learning experience, with each session building on the previous.
You are free to start with any membership option you’d like, but we’d highly recommended prioritising attending the fundamentals sessions first and foremost, then using any additional sessions against our regular timetable, or The Other Room when you feel ready.
All of our membership options carry absolutely no minimum terms or tie ins, so there’s nothing to lose by giving it a go. By the end of the course, you’ll have gained the skills and knowledge to train safely in any CrossFit gym – especially ours.
Our first Fundamentals session of 2026 will begin on Saturday 17th January at 10:30am, then continue the following Wednesday at 7.30pm and so on…
