We believe that CrossFit is suitable for everyone, regardless of age. Every exercise is scalable to your level. However, we understand that it can be nice to exercise at your own pace and with peers of your own age. For this reason, we offer special 50+ classes.
According to the physical activity guidelines, adults should move at least 2.5 hours of moderate intensity activity per week, as well as activities that strengthen muscles and bones. All of these reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart and vascular diseases, depressive symptoms, and bone fractures. By participating in our CrossFit classes you will give a perfect interpretation to this.
CrossFit is an all-round training program that aims to improve strength, endurance, flexibility, balance, coordination, and more. We work with functional movements that are applied in daily life, such as a “deadlift” when you pick up something from the floor, a “squat” when you stand up from a chair, or a “farmers walk” when you carry shopping bags. In essence, we say by doing CrossFit, you are prepared for whatever life throws at you!

End of an Era ✨
After almost 16 incredible years, we say goodbye to the founder of CrossFit Twente, the man who started it all as one of the pioneers of CrossFit in the Netherlands. As the second CrossFit box in the country, he built not just a gym, but a community that has impacted countless lives. It’s truly the end of an era.
Jan, we are thankful for the place and spirit you created. ❤️
We will miss you, and yes, even the always generous rowing tips, inchworms in every class, vacuuming during events, and your ‘friendly’ messages on the whiteboard. 😅
Join us to celebrate his legacy on Sunday, June 29, 12.00-15.00 at his farewell drink — everyone is welcome, members and non-members alike! 🥂
Want to join one last class with him at 10:00 or 11:00 AM?
Not a member but want to join? Send us a DM! 💪
Let’s give him the send-off he deserves 🙏🏽
De Week van de Mentale Gezondheid
Afgelopen jaar hebben wij afscheid moeten nemen van een dierbaar lid van onze community. Het heeft ons diep geraakt en sindsdien staan wij – niet alleen deze week, maar eigenlijk elke dag – stil bij het belang van mentale gezondheid.
We weten nu uit pijnlijke ervaring wat de gevolgen kunnen zijn als iemand het mentaal zwaar heeft en geen uitweg meer ziet. Dat mag nooit als een eenzaam gevecht voelen. Bij ons sta je er niet alleen voor.
Onze gym is meer dan alleen een plek om fysiek sterker te worden – het is ook een plek voor steun, verbinding en herstel. Een veilige omgeving waar je mag zijn wie je bent, met alles wat je met je meedraagt. Onze deuren staan altijd open.
Om bij te dragen aan bewustwording én actie, organiseren wij op 21 en 22 juni de 24 Hour AMRAP Challenge. Hiermee willen we geld inzamelen voor Stichting 113 Zelfmoordpreventie – zodat hulp en hoop bereikbaar blijven voor iedereen die het nodig heeft.

Samen zijn we sterker. 💛

Mental Health Awareness Week
Last year, we had to say goodbye to a beloved member of our community. It left a deep mark on us, and since then, mental health has been something we reflect on — not just this week, but every single day.
We’ve seen firsthand the painful consequences when someone struggles mentally and feels there’s no way out. No one should ever feel alone in that battle. And here, you’re not.
Our gym is more than just a place to get physically stronger — it’s a place of support, connection, and healing. A safe space where you can be yourself, with everything you carry. Our doors are always open.
To raise awareness and take action, we’re organizing the 24 Hour AMRAP Challenge on June 21st and 22nd. With this event, we aim to raise funds for 113 Suicide Prevention — helping ensure support and hope remain within reach for those who need it most.

Together, we are stronger. 💛
