Community

The gym is the people in it. Here's what we're doing together, on the floor and off it.

Fantastic 4 Team Competition

Maine's most fun community CrossFit competition is back for year five. Teams of 4 (two men, two women), one division, four scored events, and programming built so athletes of every level can compete together. Register by August 30; teams locked in by July 31 get a free shirt for each teammate.

CrossFit Level 1 Certificate Course

For the first time ever, MF hosts CrossFit's two-day L1 course, led by CrossFit Seminar Staff: the nine foundational movements, nutrition, programming, and more. You don't need to be a coach or want to become one. It's the same course every MF coach started with, and Hunter calls it the most impactful course he's ever taken.

Memorial Day, every year

Murph

The classic Memorial Day hero workout: a mile run, pull-ups, push-ups, squats, and another mile, done shoulder to shoulder and scaled to every athlete in the room. Strollers, weight vests, and all.

Scaling isn't cheating
