CrossFit in Prague, coached properly since 2011
CrossFit Committed opened in 2011, outdoors in Letná park, as the second CrossFit gym in the country. Fifteen years later we're in a private hall in Žižkov, and the rule hasn't changed: every class is led by a coach, capped at 12 people, and technique comes before load.

What CrossFit actually is
CrossFit is strength training and conditioning in one class: lifting, gymnastics like pull-ups and push-ups, and short, hard intervals on a rower or a bike. The workouts change every day, so you get strong and fit at the same time instead of picking one.
What makes it work, or not, is the coaching. The same workout can be great training or a fast way to get hurt, depending on whether someone is watching your technique and scaling the load to you. That's the part we've spent fifteen years getting right.
How CrossFit works at CrossFit Committed
- Every class is coached. There's no open gym where you're left alone with a barbell.
- Capped at 12. The coach can actually see everyone in the room.
- Scaled to you. Through the Level Method, beginners and ten-year veterans do the same workout at different levels, and both get what they need.
- You never start in a class. New members do four coached sessions first.
- Measured. InBody scans and the Level Method app show whether it's working.
- Private. Members only, no walk-ins, no mirrors, and Tuna the Labrador on morale duty.
Is CrossFit safe after 40?
Bad coaching is dangerous. CrossFit isn't. With a coach who scales everything to you, it's one of the most complete ways to keep your strength and your breath as you get older.
Most of our members are between 35 and 50, some are in their sixties, and plenty came after injuries or after being told to take it easy forever. Tell us about your back, knees or shoulders at the Kickoff Strategy and we'll build around them.
Class times
Classes run on weekday mornings and evenings and on weekend mornings, each one led by a coach. See the current schedule.

Fifteen years of CrossFit in Prague
2009
Prague. Joey walks into his first CrossFit workout convinced he's fit.
2010
The certificate. Joey gets his CrossFit Level 1 and starts coaching. He hasn't stopped since.
2011
Letná park, Prague. No gym, no money, just a park and a few stubborn people. CrossFit Committed becomes the second CrossFit gym in the country, training outdoors in every weather.
2013
The hangar, Holešovice. A 500 m² wooden hangar, one of the biggest training floors in the country. Members describe it as a Rocky movie set. 350 people call it their gym.
2020
The year everything broke. COVID closes the gym, the landlord ends the lease. Members drop from 350 to 45.
2021
Žižkov. A new hall behind a courtyard gate on Hartigova street. Smaller crowd, same standard: every class coached, every result measured.
2026
Fifteen years. 100+ members. 80+ of them competed in this year's CrossFit Open. Joey holds a CF-L3 and has competed in every Open since 2011. Still coaching. Still proving people are stronger than they think.

“Visiting Prague from the U.K. and managed to get a last drop-in arranged. This is hands down one of the best boxes I have had the pleasure to visit. The coaches were excellent and made us feel very welcome before the session started, this being amplified by how friendly and welcoming the crew were.”
