CrossFit Tailwinds

CrossFit Tailwinds is a CrossFit gym offering small-group classes built around high-intensity strength and endurance workouts. Classes cover Olympic lifts, deadlifts, squats, bodyweight strength and skill work such as handstand push-ups, and workouts usually run from about 5 to 20 minutes. New members start with a Fundamentals program that teaches safety and proper technique before moving into regular classes. Personal training, nutrition guidance and mindset coaching are also part of the program.

The gym is part of the Elite Wellness Center, an integrative healthcare facility, so members can also reach healthcare providers for physical and mental health needs. Beginners are typically advised to train two to four times a week and build up over time. A free no sweat intro meeting with a coach is the first step, and payment is by credit or debit card. The gym is located near the Avenues Mall off I-95 in Jacksonville.
