CrossFit is group based training led by a coach to help keep you on track, keep you safe and make sure you keep reaching your goals. You get the best of personal training and group training at a fraction of the cost. Training in a group really helps push you along and you will soon think of everyone as friends. This friendship helps make a really nice friendly enviroment for people to come and train in. So it is not a scary place!!

CrossFit is defined as "Constantly varied, functional movements executed at high intensity” We use a combination of Gymnastic (the control of your own body) Weightlifting (the control of an external object) and mono state Cardio (something to get the heartrate up) to challenge and excite your body when you come to workout with us. Learning new skills is important to us and we love the challenge of showing people things they never thought they could do (pull up, handstand push up to name a few!). Just speak to some of our members and they will tell you how proud they are of what they have achieved.

If you have ever been to a gym, walked in, signed up, then thought, "what do I do now?" We know this happens to so many people and we totally understand. With CrossFit we do all of the programming for you so you are never left wondering what you should do. In the hour session, we will warm you up, explain the WOD (workout of the day) take you through the workout and then have a cool down afterwards. You get all you need in that one hour session. Book onto our free taster to find out more.

From a young age fitness has been a big part of Richards life whether it was playing hockey, sailing or running around woods, anything active kept him happy and occupied. Upon completing his personal training qualification with the YMCA Richard was unsure which direction he should take his love of fitness. It was when he found CrossFit that he knew this is how he wanted to help people get fitter and reach their goals. It was a training program that really worked for him and he wanted to pass it on to as many people as he could.

CF BSE is not just a typical Gym, it's a community of likeminded people striving to make themselves better. I started nearly 2 years ago, and I'm now completely hooked. Rich does a great job with the programming, which always pushing you to achieve more than you thought you could. He's always on hand for advice, and tips to improve. I've lost nearly 2 stone, become fitter, stronger, and happier and gained a load of friends along the way.

Richard has been a brilliant, supportive coach over the past two years. He is not afraid to be tough, obviously knows what he is talking about and can also be incredibly supportive when needed. The Box programming is always a surprise, I couldn't predict what is going to appear day-to-day and I love that. The workouts are always challenging but achievable and they have enabled me to get fitter and stronger despite suffering running injuries.

I hit 30 and I had never been so unfit. I was so busy that I never made time for the gym and when I did I would only be motivated to do 10 minutes on a treadmill and I found the rest of the machines very boring. When I started going to Crossfit it was a real shock to the system but you get used to it very quickly and activities like weight lifting which I think I wouldn't enjoy have been great. At the start training with other people seems really daunting but it really spurs you on and everyone is really nice. I prefer it to a personal trainer and plus it works out cheaper than my old gym membership and one PT session. Also all the coaches are a lot better.

I didn’t know how much I would love Crossfit until I tried it, 18 months and 3 stone lighter I’m doing handstand push-ups, pull ups, clean & jerks (and the rest). Prior to taking the plunge I was not taking part in any exercise whatsoever, so the thought of box jumps etc made me nervous…. How wrong was I. Richard, Nicole & all the members at the box were so welcoming and made me feel like I was part of something (not just grinding out a workout each day). The workouts are different every day, and I still look forward to heading to the whiteboard to see what’s in store for us each morning. Richard & Nicoles' coaching is first class, and their motivation, knowledge, and attentiveness means that every person in the class gets the most out of every workout. For those of you who feel Crossfit may not be for you, or that you have to be fit already to do Crossfit, all I would say is give it a try. I wasn’t fit when I started, but I am the fittest and strongest I have ever been in my life, and this is all thanks to Richard, Nicole, and the members of Crossfit Beorn

Fantastic experience: Moved back home from university and joined this gym. It’s not just a gym, it’s a community. I found myself heading to the gym for the people as much as the fitness. The massive benefit with CrossFit is that they really focus on performance over aesthetics (that part just happens as a result of getting stronger and faster). I love this approach as you can see great results every week. Any bad press that CrossFit gets is usually down to bad coaching and movements not being taught correctly in beginners. This is not the case in this gym. There are some advanced level weightlifters at this gym, and so the coaching is suitable from beginner all the way up to elite. Yes CrossFit is more expensive that many commercial gyms however every session you have a coach to help and push you. I’ve now moved to London where I have to pay in excess of £200 for a similar membership, but now I can really see the benefit in all aspects of my life. (Basically I have to eat like a horse to keep up with the training - absolute win).

Fantastic experience: The best gym in Bury St Edmund's. If you haven't tried Crossfit before then you are missing out. Richard & Nicole are fantastic coaches, and this place is not like working out with people, it's working out with friends! I can do things I never thought I would be able to do, and I'm still learning to do more!
