“BLACKOUT”

CrossFit Pyro is our physical location, our community, our culture, this is where the magic happens.

BLACKOUT is our programming, WODs, METCONs, Weightlifting, Gymnastics, Firebreathers, Accessory work, maintenance and mobility. Soon to be added: Kids and teens, more gymnastics and the obvious Endurance program as well. All this provided to you, daily. Posted here on the website, the FB community group and sometimes on other social media. Now, the daily programming is delivered to you by email in a nice clean format. We spend hundred of hours a week building the best programming. Literally, we’re working around the clock to create great workouts, building strength, skills, conditioning, always trying to do something fun and new. Routine is the enemy. Our program is just as much for beginners as it is for elite athletes “The needs of elderly and Olympic athletes defer by degree, not kind”. Our programming is special and we gave it an identity. Below is the backbone of what BLACKOUT is and how we build our programming:

BLACKOUT is build with the 10 physical skills in mind:

Stamina
Cardiovascular endurance
Strength
Flexibility
Power
Speed
Coordination
Agility
Balance
Accuracy

Which leads to 5 pillars that holds everything together:

Maintenance/Mobility/Rehab
Strength
Conditionning
Skills
Nutrition

If you look closely to the logo, not only you’ll find that it looks similar to the Pyro logo but you can see clearly the 10 line on the right representing the 10 physical skills and the 5 lines on the left representing the 5 pillars.

BLACKOUT will also be offered to non members through the Pyro website with a subscription link. We hope that more athletes will join the ranks of Pyromanians by allowing them to be with us without being at the physical Pyro location.

Fitness is a lifestyle, it’s a choice. With Pyro and the BLACKOUT programming we give you all the tools and resources to be the best version of yourself. All you have to do is to show up, listen to the coaches, work hard, trust the process, stick with it and you will achieve your goals, guarantee.

Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!! See you in class
