CrossFit Cedar Rapids, Cedar Rapids

Cedar Rapids CrossFit owners Dmitry Altshul and Jake Swanson know a thing or two about the human body—both are certified CrossFit trainers, and Swanson also holds a black belt in tang soo do and a position as a submission-grappling coach at Revolution Martial Arts. Along with two other trainers, this pair draws on a vast knowledge of physical activity to create a new training regimen for every day of the week. This constant whirlwind of exercise cycles through everything from rowing and carrying heavy objects to Olympic weightlifting and gymnastics training. By following these constantly changing regimens, students build strength, speed, and stamina without suffering the boredom that results from sticking to a single routine or sleeping through a single exercise video.
