What is Crossfit Westside?
Crossfit Westside in Vancouver offers one on one training and group classes using the crossfit strength and conditioning philosophy. We take functional movements, mix them up, and execute them in short intense workouts. We use movements such as the squat, push up, pull up, sit up, deadlift, lunge, rowing, running, skipping, biking, and more. Each workout has a different combination of exercises with varied repetitions, rounds, and time.To learn more about what we do at Crossfit Westside contact us here.

Competition
We decided to try an event named FEMSPORT this weekend. It is a strength and fitness competition. We did not train for it specifically, we just trained Crossfit. It went great!

Jenika carrying two 45lbs jugs of water in the obstacle course.
Carmen completing 50 box jumps for time!
Christine (our photographer and crossfit training partner), Carmen, and Jenika.
We had a ton of fun and met alot of cool girls and people!!
Family Workout
They say that a family that plays together stays together. Jeanine and Trudy , daughter and mother, have been training together for almost a year now! They are a ton of fun and have been doing a great job each week.
Crossfit Takes You Places
It is all worthwhile training hard, especially when it gets you fit enough to climb mountains to such beautiful destinations! Hope you all enjoy your weekend.
50 and Fabulous!
It is hard to believe but these lovely ladies are all over 50 years old! Crossfit + Fun = Staying Young!
Girls going HEAVY
Part of the Crossfit program is building strength. Strength is a key component to survival and overall quality of life. The stronger you are the more likely you will be able to continue to lift things over your head, to pick things up, or to just simply move around. We were lucky enough to train with Mark Rippetoe, author of "Starting Strength" and "Practical Programming for Strength Training" last month. We recommend checking these books out sometime.
Cycling for Kids
We wanted to give a big high five to Scott and all his buddies in the Big White Fire Department for cycling across Canada to raise money for the Childern's Wish Foundation. You guys rock!
