Intro Course

The principles of CrossFit

Home > Get started

Start with CrossFit

In a small group setting our Coaches will teach you the movements and principles required to get the most out of our CrossFit training program. This course is designed for beginners and is adjustable for all fitness levels. Besides the foundational movements we will also teach our view on lifestyle, sleep and nutrition. The course consists of 5 sessions:

Session 1 – Squat – Air Squat, Front Squat & Overhead Squat
Session 2 – Pressing – Shoulder Press, Push Press & Push Jerk
Session 3 – Pulling – Deadlift, Sumo Deadlift High pull & Medicine Ball Clean
Session 4 – Basics of Weightlifting – Snatch & Clean and Jerk
Session 5 – Basics of Gymnastics – Pull-ups, Push-ups, Dips, Handstands & Muscle Ups

If you are unable to make it to one of these classes you can catch up in the next course or in a 1-on-1 session. After all five classes are completed you are ready to join our CrossFit group classes.

If you have experience with CrossFit you may be able to skip the Intro Course. Please contact us and we will arrange a personal assessment.

MEET COACH MARTIJN 🤝🏼🇳🇱

How long have you been coaching at CrossFit Twente?
Since 2016, I’ve been officially coaching at CrossFit Twente. I was already a member from the start. It all started with just a few hours a week, and it’s grown from there. Now you see me in the early morning hours, with the kids and teens classes and some other evening classes!

Do you have another job besides coaching? If so, what do you do?
Yes, in addition to coaching at CrossFit Twente, I also coach at CrossFit Hengelo. I create personalized programs for people with more specific goals as well and I offer box programming. So yes, I’m responsible for all the terrible (and fun) workouts at CFT😇

What’s the best part about being a coach?
I love seeing people grow in the gym—whether it’s getting stronger or building confidence in what they can achieve. It’s always rewarding to witness those transformations 🙌🏼

How do you think the members would describe you?
As an honest coach who isn’t afraid to add that extra kilo to the barbell—because I believe in their potential 💪🏽
