Cross Functional Fitness Frequently Asked Questions

Most frequent questions and answers

Yes. Every single person who walks through our doors starts with a proper assessment, not a workout. We build your plan around where you are right now, not where you think you should be. Half our members started exactly here; out of practice, a bit nervous, unsure if they’d “fit in.” You won’t be thrown into something you’re not ready for. We coach you at your pace and adjust everything to your level from the start.

It depends on which option suits you best — 1-2-1, small group, nutrition coaching or online coaching, all sit at different price points. Rather than throw a number at you with no context, we talk it through properly at your free consultation, where we get a sense of your goals and recommend the right package. No hard sell, no pressure to decide on the spot. Prices range from £75 – £605 per 4 weeks depending on the package you decide on.

Most of our members are busy parents, professionals, or both. Sessions are built to fit a real schedule, not the other way round. We’ll talk through what’s realistic for you at the consultation, two sessions a week consistently beats five sessions you can’t keep up.

You’ll meet a coach, see the gym, and talk through your goals, your history, and what’s realistic for you. No contracts get signed. It’s a conversation, not a sales pitch. If we don’t think we’re the right fit, we’ll say so.

We work with this all the time. Lower back issues, knee pain, arthritis, you name it — our coaches build around it, not despite it. You’ll tell us what’s going on at your consultation, and we’ll factor it straight into your plan. If something needs medical clearance first, we’ll tell you that too.

You probably didn’t quit because you’re lazy, you quit because nobody was actually coaching you. We don’t do fads, quick fixes, or generic plans. You get real coaching, a small group or 1-2-1 setting where someone notices if you stop showing up, and a focus on building habits that actually last.

Just yourself and a pair of trainers. Everything else is here.

Both, genuinely. Some of our members are training for events or personal records, others just want to move better, have more energy, and not dread the gym. We coach to your goals, not ours.

You won’t be training alongside twenty-somethings doing handstand push-ups. Our groups are capped at 5 people and grouped by ability, not age, so you’re training at a level that matches you, not competing against anyone. Most of our members are in their 40s, 50s, and 60s, some even their 70s, and a lot of them tell us this exact fear was the only thing holding them back, and it disappeared after one session.

It’s actually the opposite. Research on resistance training in older adults — including studies on people in their 80s and 90s — consistently shows it’s safe, builds strength back, and protects joints rather than damaging them. Muscle mass naturally declines with age if you don’t train it, which is what leads to weakness, falls, and joint problems in the first place. Strength training is one of the few things proven to reverse that. We assess you first and build everything around your starting point, not a generic plan.

That fear is completely normal, and it’s one of the main reasons people put this off for years. The truth is the opposite happens with proper coaching: strength training improves balance, stability, and confidence in your own body, which lowers your risk of falls and injury rather than raising it. You’re coached on technique every session, not left to figure it out alone.

Yes, that’s the entire point. We’re not training people for the stage or a competition. We train for real life: getting up out of a chair without thinking about it, carrying heavy bags without your back giving out, keeping up on a walk, staying steady on your feet, having the energy to play with grandkids instead of watching from the sidelines. That’s what “functional strength” actually means.

 

We’re based in Warrenpoint, 26 Moygannon Road, BT34 3QJ. There’s free parking right outside.

 

We run early morning sessions from 7am for people who like to get it done before the day starts. We also have several evening sessions during the week until 8pm.

 

We’re upfront about this at your consultation; there’s no pressure into anything you’re not comfortable with. We run on a month-to-month basis, with a 2 week notice period so we can get your subscription stopped.

It depends what you mean by results. You’ll likely feel a difference in energy and confidence within the first couple of weeks. Visible strength gains typically build over a few months. We’re not selling a 90-day transformation, we’re building something that lasts years, not weeks, because that’s what actually changes how you feel and function long-term.

That happens to everyone at some point, life gets in the way. Coaches keep track of your progress and attendance and adjust your plan when you come back, you’re never just thrown back in.
