Better than HYROX. Built for Life.
At CrossFit Burlingame, we don’t just train — we build legends. If you’re chasing strength that lasts, energy that doesn’t fade, and a community that lifts you higher, you’re in the right place.
Let’s compare CrossFit with the latest trend: HYROX. While HYROX is a cool challenge, CrossFit is a complete system for lifelong performance, health, and fulfillment.
💪 1. CrossFit Builds Real, Lasting Strength
Unlike HYROX’s endurance-centric sled pushes and lunges, CrossFit gives you deadlifts, squats, Olympic lifts, and carries — movements that create durable muscle and protect your bones, joints, and posture.
🗣️ “When I turned 50, I could barely carry groceries up the stairs. Now? I deadlift more than my 20-year-old son. CrossFit changed my life.”
— Linda S., CFBG member since 2021
🧠 2. CrossFit Trains the Brain + Body
With constantly varied workouts and complex movements, CrossFit develops motor skills, focus, and neurological coordination — keeping your brain just as fit as your body.
🗣️ “I used to dread working out. Now, every day is different. I’m constantly learning, and that keeps me coming back. I feel sharper — at work, at home, and in the gym.”
— Travis K., CFBG member since 2020
🧬 3. Health from the Inside Out
CrossFit is more than workouts — it’s a lifestyle of transformation. At CFBG, we coach you on:
- Nutrition
- Recovery
- Stress management
- Sustainable fitness habits
🗣️ “I’ve reversed my pre-diabetes and dropped 40 pounds since joining. This gym didn’t just change my body, it saved my health.”
— Samea A., CFBG member since 2020
🦴 4. Longevity Through Load + Variance
Science proves that resistance training is the #1 longevity tool. CrossFit combines heavy lifts, explosive movement, and joint care — while keeping your body guessing.
HYROX repeats the same race.
CrossFit evolves with you.
🗣️ “I’m in my 60s and feel better than I did in my 30s. My knees don’t hurt anymore, and I finally feel strong and balanced.”
— Marlene G., CFBG member since 2018
🧡 5. The Secret Weapon: Community
CrossFit isn’t just about reps — it’s about relationships.
You don’t just show up to work out. You show up for your people.
🗣️ “When I lost my job, this community was my lifeline. They encouraged me, showed up for me, and reminded me of my strength — in and out of the gym.”
— Joel M., CFBG Coach & Athlete since 2016
