Should I Take Personal Training & CrossFit Classes Together?
In a word — YES. We recommend taking at least one personal training, one mobility class, and one CrossFit class per week. Personal Training to teach you the foundations, mobility to improve your flexibility and control, CrossFit to improve your conditioning.
Mobility vs Flexibility vs Yoga vs Stretching
Exercise is essential for good health, but I am assuming you already know that. But did you know Mobility Training is just as essential?

You are not as efficient as a runner, you are more likely to get injured as a golfer, you are slower in CrossFit than you ought to be, and as a powerlifter, your recovery times are slower. Mobility is critical for all sports and physical activities. Period.
