Once you sign up you will be given a link to create a Sugarwod account. This is where all of the programming will be posted each week as well as where you will enter your scores so you can compete with your fellow athletes!
90% of our programs can be completed with 1 set of dumbbells and a barbell. In order to complete every program, we suggest having access to a box, squat rack, rower/bike, and rings. Regardless, we offer substitutions for any exercise in the program requiring equipment you don’t have access to via our members-only Facebook group.
As long as you have a membership you will continuously receive programming! Our coaches program in 6 to 8 week cycles which include a “deload week” between weeks and a transition week the week before the next cycle.
Training sessions vary by level. Minimal Equipment ranges from 45 - 60 minutes. Level M can take anywhere from 60 - 90 minutes. Competitors may take up to 2 - 3 hours depending on what is programmed.
No! CFT is designed for women of any physical activity background, whether you’re a former athlete or someone that has never had a regular workout routine! We have 4 levels of programming starting with modifications catered towards beginners leading up to advanced gymnastics and weightlifting. All 4 levels are accessible by all members!
Our programming is written for 5 days of training with 2 days of full rest. The rest days are preprogrammed for Thursdays and Sundays, but it is common for members to rearrange their workout schedule to coordinate with their personal schedule.
We have multiple ways to support you in learning to fuel for training and for life! Via the Circle Community (our private online community). There are two different courses to help you learn all the things you need to eat for training, recovery, strength, and if you're seeking to make body composition changes. We also have a daily check in system via Sugarwod as well as an entire section of the Circle community dedicated to nutrition talk (with help and support from Coach Shawna!)
You can have multiple gym accounts under Sugarwod.
You will need access to rings, a rig (pull-ups, bar muscle-ups), and a place to do barbell work.
We generally suggest you have at least 6 months to a year of CrossFit prior to starting this program (depending on previous athletic experience). We would like you to have a solid grasp of the terminology, an understanding of the Olympic lifts, as well as the capacity to train by yourself.
Absolutely NOT! This program is designed to help you GET these things while also helping the more advanced athletes IMPROVE on these things. We offer scales and modifications for every level.
Don’t worry about it! We provide access to videos of EVERY exercise we program on our youtube page. We also have a scheduled weekly zoom meeting that is open to all members to meet with the coaches to ask questions and get answers. We provide modifications for all our workouts to allow both beginners and experienced athletes to train together.
