The Importance of Arriving on Time
At CrossFit Chiltern, we highly value punctuality and encourage all athletes to arrive on time for their scheduled classes. Arriving on time not only demonstrates respect for your coaches and fellow athletes but also contributes to a more productive and enjoyable training experience for everyone. Here’s why it’s so important:
- Warm-up and Preparation: The warm-up is a crucial component of any CrossFit class, designed to prepare your body for the workout ahead and reduce the risk of injury. Arriving late means missing out on essential mobility exercises, dynamic stretches, and movement preparation, which can compromise your performance and safety.
- Class Briefing and Instruction: The coach’s pre-workout briefing provides valuable information about the workout structure, movement standards, scaling options, and safety considerations. Arriving late means missing out on these crucial instructions, which can lead to confusion, frustration, and potentially unsafe execution of movements.
- Class Flow and Momentum: Late arrivals can disrupt the flow and momentum of the class, causing distractions for both athletes and coaches. It can also create delays and impact the overall workout experience for everyone involved.
- Respect for Others’ Time: Your coaches and fellow athletes have committed their time to the class, and arriving late shows a lack of respect for their schedules and dedication. It can also create a sense of frustration and resentment among those who arrived on time.
We understand that unforeseen circumstances can sometimes cause delays. However, we kindly request that you make every effort to arrive on time for your classes. If you anticipate being late, please let us know in advance so we can make necessary adjustments and minimize disruptions to the class.
By arriving on time, you demonstrate your commitment to your fitness goals, respect for your coaches and fellow athletes, and contribute to a positive and productive training environment for everyone at CrossFit Chiltern.
