Our new location is 12105 Nebel St Rockville, MD 20852 301 535 1316 We have two rules: SHOW UP! DON’T QUIT! If you can follow those, the results are guaranteed.

Fitness levels are all over the map but each participant shares two things in common: 1. They want RESULTS! 2. They are willing to work their butt off to earn those RESULTS! Crossfit DoneRight classes are designed for scalability and apply equally well to all individuals no matter their age or fitness level – as long as they are willing to put forth the effort. By varying the load and intensity, we start you at a level appropriate to your fitness and experience. This means everyone does the “same” workout varied only by their ability to perform it. What is CrossFit, Is This Right for Me? 2008-09-30T11:16:58+00:00 http://www.crossfitdoneright.com/index.php/About/whats_the_crossfit_difference/ http://www.crossfitdoneright.com/index.php/About/whats_the_crossfit_difference/#When:11:13:53Z In gyms and health clubs throughout the world the typical workout consists of isolation movements and extended aerobic sessions. The fitness community from trainers to the magazines has the exercising public believing that lateral raises, curls, leg extensions, crunches and the like combined with 20-40 minute stints on the stationary bike or treadmill are going to lead to some kind of great fitness. Well, at CrossFit we work exclusively with compound movements and shorter high intensity cardiovascular sessions. We’ve replaced the lateral raise with push-press, the curl with pull-ups, and the leg extension with squats. For every long distance effort our athletes will do five or six at short distance. Why? Because compound or functional movements and high intensity or anaerobic cardio is radically more effective at eliciting nearly any desired fitness result. Astonishingly, this is not a matter of opinion but solid indisputable scientific fact and yet the marginally effective old ways persist and are nearly universal. Our approach is consistent with what is practiced in elite training programs associated with major university athletic teams and professional sports. CrossFit endeavors to bring state-of-the-art coaching techniques to the general public and athletes who haven’t access to current technologies, research, and coaching methods. What is CrossFit, What's the CrossFit Difference? 2008-09-30T11:13:53+00:00 http://www.crossfitdoneright.com/index.php/About/what_is_crossfit/ http://www.crossfitdoneright.com/index.php/About/what_is_crossfit/#When:11:04:13Z CrossFit is a fitness and conditioning system developed by Coach Greg Glassman through many years of watching, working with, and coaching all types of people – from those considered “normal and average”, to top athletes. Coach Glassman's idea – take what worked best from the sports and movements that create the most versatile athletes (gymnastics and weightlifting), and throw the rest out. Actually, the system really created itself - if a workout or an exercise proved functional and got great results (i.e. - challenged you to the bone), it stayed in the system. If not, well, you got the picture. CrossFit is what remains - bar none, the most effective fitness and conditioning system in the world! One of the things that make CrossFit unique is that it addresses the fact that the fitness needs of an "Average Joe" are identical to that of a top athlete – the only difference being intensity (speed & weight) and volume. In all cases, the best results come when training included functional movement (that which replicates real life movement), at high intensity and with constant variety. Any exercise program that meets these three criteria can be considered “CrossFit,” from shoveling dirt, hauling rocks and cutting down trees to weightlifting, pull ups and sprinting. CrossFit has been called "The Sport of Fitness" because it re-introduces personal athletic achievement and performance to training. The mindset at the start of each workout is to be stronger, move faster, more efficiently, with better form than ever. This is why even after years of training CrossFit style, scores and times in workouts continue to drop and athletes continue to improve. It’s hard, fun, exciting, challenging, and will push you to be your absolute best! CrossFit is by design broad, general and inclusive. Its specialty is in not specializing, and its workouts elicit a maximal neuro-endocrine response from your body by taxing your body to its core with variety, intensity, and multiple joint, full body, functional movements. As our friends at CrossFit North say of the workout of the day, “It should CRUSH YOU.” Why Crossfit? Results. Period.

Once you’ve read this, you’ll understand that most other training programs either take way too much time to get the results or are incomplete, leaving a well rounded athlete with a chink in his/her armor.

You will not find this level of performance and achievement anywhere else! You will never challenge and reward your body more than with CrossFit workouts… it will change your life! Many professional and elite athletes are participating in Crossfit. It is also being used by the Navy Seals, Firefighters and Police officers. The Crossfit methods have been tested on the elderly, sedentary, and overweight populations. These special populations have met the same success as stable athletes. If this program will work for Olympic athletes and overweight, sedentary home markers, then it will work for anyone. Private Training 1-on-1 Private Training is the best option when: * you're rehabilitating from a recent injury or surgery * you're significantly overweight * you have no exercise experience or have been very sedentary * you have serious health issues or physical issues/injuries * you want to learn specific skills or you have specific goals * you're a specialized athlete looking for specialized training * you prefer or require privacy, personal attention and accountability CrossFit DoneRight 101 Everything we do at CrossFit DoneRight focuses on quality of instruction, safety, and effectiveness, therefore, graduation from the CFDR 101 Program is required for entry into the CrossFit Classes. The Program is a 12-step curriculum that emphasizes exposure to the basic movements of Crossfit, skill development, and nutrition. There is a workout at the end of each training session. Included in the curriculum: squat, front squat, overhead squat, press, push press, push jerk, thruster, deadlift, kettlebell swing, rowing, pull-ups progression, double-unders, and Olympic warm-up/skill transfer, clean, and snatch. CrossFit Classes = Professional Coaching We are unlike the regular gym, where you do your own thing. In our High Performance Gym, you will be coached each and every time you walk through the door. We are not caddy's, clipboard holders, or rep counters. We are more than time keepers, score recorders, and motivators. We are responsible for ensuring that your workout is not easy nor impossible; that your form and range of motion is correct; that your speed/intensity is sufficient; that the exercise and load is adjusted to your fitness level; and we ensure safety and performance gains. On top of all that, we will teach you things that you have NEVER thought possible at your current state. We will teach you basic gymnastics and Olympic weightlifting. You'll learn how to move your body faster; how to generate more power; and how to build strength. We'll also teach you about performance nutrition, no gimmicks or unnecessary supplements, but real food nutrition. What We Do 2008-09-16T10:11:18+00:00 http://www.crossfitdoneright.com/index.php/About/the_crossfit_doneright_difference/ http://www.crossfitdoneright.com/index.php/About/the_crossfit_doneright_difference/#When:10:08:00Z The first thing that separates us from typical gyms and trainers is that WE TRAIN MOVEMENTS, NOT MUSCLES. There are no machines, no mirrors and no “cardio” equipment. We don’t do bicep curls or leg extensions, we’ve replaced them with pull ups and squats. Why? Because compound or functional movements combined with high intensity or anaerobic cardio is radically more effective at eliciting nearly any desired fitness result. Astonishingly, this is not a matter of opinion, but solid indisputable scientific fact. At Crossfit DoneRight we require you to think, to use your brain as well as your muscles to learn, to challenge yourself, to try new things you never thought you could, to practice new skills that require you to be focused and present. We teach you how to move your body with proper mechanics, stability, balance, and agility.

Fitness is instrumental in reducing the immediate and cumulative effects of stress and anxiety. We’ve found that the fitter a person is, the more he/she is physically able to do the things that bring joy and fun to life – everything from feeling strong, confident and energetic through your normal work day, running around with your kids, being physically active and playing sports, to traveling to remote corners of the earth. The CrossFit Program was developed to enhance an individual’s competency at all physical tasks. By centering our training within these domains we provide the opportunity and atmosphere for every student to excel and surpass their fitness goals while reducing their potential for injury.
