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.

Want Pullups?

Pullups_3   Pull ups are a big part of the Crossfit workouts. Everyone wants one and we want you to get one too! Three ways you can get your pullups.

1) Warm up before each workout with pull ups. Do 3-5 reps for 3 rounds. If you can't do full pull ups, jump up to the bar then slowly lower yourself down. 

2) Assisted pull ups. Get your friend to help you up to the bar. Start by trying to pull yourself up, then when you can't pull anymore get your friend to give you a little push to help you finish.

3) Get your coach to teach you the kipping pull up. Practicing and doing this movement will increase your static pull ups
