CrossFit Sparta's recipe for fitness includes equal parts intense cardio and forceful lifting. The results-minded instructors shout this recipe at students during CrossFit strength and conditioning classes that feature a workout of the day and CrossFight classes that combine martial arts, self-defense, and survival skills. Though the high-intensity workouts were designed to train military personnel and police, they can be customized to the individual fitness level of men and women alike. The ever-shifting exercise regime incorporates an array of conventional and creative workout tools, including free weights, kettlebells, gymnastics rings, pull-up bars, jump boxes, and oversized tires from Paul Bunyan's childhood swing.

The trainers at South Tampa Fit don't need machines or an overflowing member list to complete their mission.

From the core-conditioning routines of boot camp to the Olympic weightlifts of Total Strength sessions, their exercise plans avoid monotony in pursuit of results.
