CrossFit is a Strength & Conditioning GPP (General Physical Preparedness) program. Our program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. We utilize movements that are functional, natural and safe in the regards to daily life.
The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience.
By utilizing functional movements and scaling for individuals based on their current level of fitness we can use the same routines for elderly individuals with heart disease and competitive athletes one month out from a big event. We scale load and intensity; we don’t change programs. The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind. Our military service men and women, college athletes, and housewives have found their best fitness from the same regimen.
At Albany CrossFit we have a very large and varied community consisting of: students, full-time moms, police officers, fire fighters, nurses, doctors, lawyers, business executives, professional / amateur athletes, young children and grand parents. The beautiful thing about CrossFit training is that all of these different demographics can do the same workout, in the same room together because CrossFit is universally scalable depending on your current fitness level.

Fitness is not just for adults, but for kids too! We believe that to ensure individuals lead long, happy, and healthy lives they need to be educated on and practice exercising from an early age. That is why every Saturday from 10:30 am to 11:30 am we offer a Kids only class. The class is for kids ages 5 to 12 years old (Grades K through 6th).
Kids class provides a fun social environment where kids can have fun and make new friends while learning to exercise. The program focuses on functional and safe movement, gymnastics skills practice, and aerobic conditioning. The class is led by Coach Chris Deso. Coach Chris is a certified CrossFit Kids instructor in addition to being 5th grade teach at Charlton Heights Elementary School in Burnt Hills for 14 years.
