VERDANT CROSSFIT

CrossFit

Verdant CrossFit, first and foremost, is a CrossFit gym! We run group based fitness classes that are instructed by a qualified instructor. These classes run almost every hour of the day and each class has a specific warm-up, a strength element, and then a metabolic conditioning block. Warm-Ups are often overlooked or rushed through by a lot of gyms, but at Verdant, we spend a lot of time developing warm ups that are specific to the movements that we are practicing that day. We also mix functional body-building and core strength each day.

Our Strength Elements are a major part of our programming. That’s because we run specific strength cycles in our regular CrossFit classes! You’ll have 3-12 weeks blocks of time where you’ll move towards a new goal of a new maximum lift or movement. In addition to putting our strength elements into a structured curriculum, you’ll see patterns in our Metabolic Conditioning pieces every few weeks. You’ll always know that your programming is thought-out well in advance.

WHO WE ARE

At Verdant CrossFit we have built an amazing community that has withstood the test of time and tribulation. We have had MANY memorable community events and several annual events including an annual “cornhole” tournament, a monthly community event or a themed “happy hour” WoD. We have put on multiple movie nights, several dance parties, Halloween parties, and at the end of each year we rent out some rad space in downtown Boise and throw a big party.

We have produced a team that has been to the CrossFit Games West Regionals three times in a row (2015, 2016, 2017) and been to the ESPN televised CrossFit Games in 2015. We have had a Verdant Softball Team, the V-Cards, three years running and we have had a women’s volleyball team for two years as well. Verdant has done several major fundraisers for different charities over the past three years and we have supported many of our members who are going through difficult times or through first time pregnancy!
