  • This Saturday’s Weightlifting meet

    Saturday, March 13th
    10:30am

    This meet is non-sanctioned (mock), which means it is an in-house competition and will not qualify any individual for any other Olympic weightlifting event hosted outside North Shore CrossFit.  However, the USAW full rules will be enforced.

    This event is for any member at either facility, any age (even kids), any weight class, any gender.  And more importantly, it’s free!  This will be a good chance for lifters who are not members of our competitive Olympic Weightlifting team to see first hand what a meet looks like, how it is run and the technical details that are involved in such a meet.

    Weigh-in’s to determine your weight class will be at 10am and lifting will begin at 10:30am.  Don’t worry about trying to cut weight, weight classes are used in conjunction with the Sinclair formula that will be used to determine your placement in relation to your body weight, age and your Clean & Jerk and Snatch weight.

    At the time of registration we will also need to know your starting weight per lift (Clean & Jerk and the Snatch).

    Even though we all enjoy seeing people in singlets, it is not required for this meet.

    We will be using a timer, as required in sanctioned meets, as well as judges to determine whether your lift was successful or not.  There will be a separate warm up area to ensure proper warm up by everyone.

    Whether you are new to O-lifting or are a well-seasoned lifter, this will be a great experience for all.  Registration will be required and the deadline is Friday, March 12th.  There will not be any walk-in registrations allowed the day of the competition, as we will need to know ahead of time the number of lifters and starting weight for each lift to figure out placement of lifters.

    We will be going over the format of the competition and strategy at the 6:30pm olifting class in Topsfield on Wednesday night.  Everyone is welcome!!!

    If you have any questions or concerns about this meet, please do not hesitate to contact Dave at dave@northshorecrossfit.com or Tara at tara@northshorecrossfit.com

NSCF

  • What is the NSCF Difference?

    Sometime over the past few years we have become perceived as a very expensive gym.  Our model is not and never will be an open gym concept.  We are a school of Fitness.  Not a Gym!  We do not compete against Gold’s, Latitude, the BAC or the YMCA.  We charge $0 for a membership.  We only charge for training.  We compete against personal trainers.  We charge far less money per hour and crush them with knowledge, service and results!

    I ran into a former member last week getting coffee.  She told me she made a big mistake.  She left NSCF and joined Latitude and signed a 2 year contract for $60 a month.  On the surface she viewed it as saving money for her monthly membership.  The only difference is she now has a membership to a gym with no instruction and no community.  She didn’t realize what training at NSCF was all about until she left, hired a personal trainer and bought a training package for 3x pr/week.    She now pays over $800 a month for a similar training model.  It could cost her $210 for the same option.  She could pay $60 for Latitude and $150 at NSCF for her training 3x pr/ week.  That is $590 cheaper pr/month that the tradition gym model.  Yes she can go to the gym whenever she wants but she only works with a trainer for 3 hours a week.  Not only is it a huge price difference she commented on how much she learned from us and that her trainer is not that good.   I am sure her trainer is good at what he does just not at what we do.

    Why not pay $60 a month for a gym membership to be able to go whenever you want?  Belonging to a regular gym is a great idea.  They sell you space for a very low monthly fee.  You have unlimited access to practice your skills, swim, run on treadmills, play racquet ball, jump in the sauna or hot tub, they offer a babysitting service and whatever else comes with a gym membership.  They get 5000-10,000 thousand members to split the cost of the services pr/month and they are in business.  Makes sense to me.  What you do not get is any coaching.  None.   You have to pay extra for that.  We train less than 150 students per month.  Big difference in numbers.    Everyone at the highest level of their game goes to a trainer.  That is where we come in.  We provide elite level training and coaching for a very affordable price.  The community support and camaraderie is just a very nice bonus.

    You get the best deal in town training at NSCF.  We do not sell you any of these amenities and we never plan on it.  We only sell you the training.    Come and get coached, break your previous records, have your friends push you beyond your limits. Everyone that trains at NSCF consistently surpasses all expectations they came in with.  Everyone succeeds!  There are no exceptions.  If you do not want to make the commitment to training here every day, you can do both.  Go to a regular gym and come to us 1x,2x or 3x a week for your training.  Come to NSCF for a monthly seminar, event, competition or Saturday workout.  Come every day and be in the best possible shape of your life.  It is your choice.  It’s doesn’t have to be one or the other.
