What is CrossFit Metropolis?
CrossFit Metropolis is a small group and personal training gym located on the Upper East Side in Manhattan, New York City.  We follow the training methodologies of CrossFit and focus on basic gymnastics, powerlifting, Olympic weightlifting and metabolic conditioning.  We are a tight-knit community of dedicated, hard-working, “everyday” folks looking for innovative and fun ways to achieve fitness.       

What is CrossFit?
CrossFit is the principal strength and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide, and thousands of dedicated “everyday” folks in search of a better fitness model.   
 
Our program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. Our specialty is not specializing. Combat, survival, many sports, and life reward this kind of fitness and, on average, punish the specialist.

The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience.  The same routines are used for elderly individuals with heart disease and cage fighters one month out from televised bouts. Load and intensity are scaled but the program stays the same.  The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind.  

Thousands of athletes worldwide are following the CrossFit program and have distinguished themselves in combat, the streets, the ring, stadiums, gyms and homes.
