Kids & Teens

Kids and Teens have a constantly varied program so the novelty of each workout keeps them motivated to participate. The functional movements involve exercises that are fundamental to all things that kids need to do when they play – pull, push, run, throw, climb, lift and jump. All of the movements are taught safely and effectively under the close supervision of CrossFit qualified coaches.

When fitness is defined as broad, inclusive and general it means that participants will become well-rounded athletes. The goal is to make them better at any and every sport that they play because the program doesn’t coach them to be good at just one thing. Our workouts will increase physical competence in 10 fitness domains: Cardiovascular and Respiratory Endurance, Stamina, Strength, Flexibility, Power, Speed, Coordination, Agility, Balance, and Accuracy.

The Teen program is a strength and conditioning program at its core. We utilise more complex olympic lifting movements and start lifting heavier weights. We move into some more advanced gymnastic movements that emphasise core to extremity progression, along with body weight movements, speed and agility drills, rowing and recovery techniques.

While the weights Teens lift get heavier, our first priority is the safety of our athletes. We always teach “perfect practice makes perfect” and a Teen is not  able to start increasing the weight of any lifts during classes until they are demonstrating correct technique, even under fatigue.

Whether your Teen is looking for an off season strength and conditioning training program or is looking for all year fitness, CrossFit Furnace’s program will challenge them to become the best athletes they can be.
