Rooted CrossFit Preteens

Rooted CrossFit PRETEENS

As a child matures, they begin to find challenges and hard work just as fun as playing games. When this happens, a preteens class is a great way to blend the structure of a teen class with the fun of a kids class.

Preteen classes will have a slightly longer warm-up, followed by a workout, and will still end with a game. They will add PVC pipes and light barbells to class, and more structure to ensure they can move properly with appropriate light loads.

This course will teach foundational movement patterns, providing children with a portion of their prescribed amount of exercise for the week, improving muscular fitness, engineering endless opportunities for success, and discussing roles for food while keeping the class and its information fun and engaging. As an infinitely scalable program, Rooted CrossFit PreTeens can also bring the benefits of physical activity to disadvantaged populations.

CrossFit classes always have an aspect of unpredictability; they are constantly varied. There is a consistent structure to the class, but what happens within each of the components of the class is what changes. Classes are built on a foundation of age-appropriate short segments that allow goals to be accomplished within them and are not too long to lead to boredom.

The methods used to teach movement within this program are broad, general, and inclusive — meaning anyone can learn, from youth athletes to kids who have never been exposed to exercise. Rooted CrossFit PreTeens participants will learn movement patterns for the squat, deadlift, press, and more, through age-appropriate progressions and games with their body weight or equipment that the age group easily manages.

Rooted CrossFit PreTeens teaches them how to work out, the essence of focus, perseverance, dedication, and motivation. Whether your preteen is looking for a stand-alone strength and conditioning program, or additional training to supplement their sport-specific training, The Rooted CrossFit PreTeens Class is committed to helping them achieve their goals in a fun, judgment-free environment surrounded by their peers.

This course will be led by Amanda Gaynier. She is a special education teacher at Brimley Area Schools. She has her CrossFit Level One, the CrossFit Educators Course, and running course. She is CPR/AED/ 1st Aid Certified.
