WHAT IS SUGARWOD?
SugarWOD is our official members app that keeps our Novus community (virtually) connected. The app allows you to prepare for the upcoming workout of the day (WOD), log your scores, check out the daily leaderboard and support and connect with other members and coaches.
WILL CROSSFIT MAKE ME BULKY?
We often hear this concern voiced by our female members. Lifting weights does not automatically lead to "big muscles." Genetics, gender, nutrition and one's specific training regimen are all important factors in determining body composition and muscle size. In short, you probably won't get "bulky" unless you try to by dedicating yourself to a specific nutrition and strength training program over the course of several months/years.
