Outdoor Pursuit Gym
About Us
For many years we were early adopters of CrossFit methods to create baseline fitness levels and sport specific work.
However; CrossFit and its competition formats moved further away from effective transferable gains leaving our programming being focused on getting better at movement rather then just speed at movement.
OPG was born out of the need for better programming that addressed strength, power and movement while leaving enough for people to get sport specific and life into their day.
Our cardio first approach focuses on developing a superior cardiovascular recovery that will aid in all pursuits.
Our focus on movement progression via strength formats will deliver balanced base strength and power that can be transferred to all pursuits.
