The Invictus Athletes’ Camp
Invictus has established a reputation for excellence in preparing athletes for the sport of CrossFit. Invictus has qualified an affiliate team to the CrossFit Games nine consecutive years (one of only two gyms to do so). In the last eight years, Team Invictus has finished in the top 5 at the CrossFit Games four times, and became the Affiliate Champions in 2014. Over the years, Invictus and coach C.J. Martin have coached 47 CrossFit Games individual athletes including, among others, Josh Bridges, Camille Leblanc-Bazinet, Valerie Voboril, Lauren Fisher, Rasmus Wisbech-Andersen, Alex Anderson, Sam Dancer, Regan Huckaby, Jenny LaBaw, Michelle Kinney, Cheryl Brost, Kristin Holte and Maddy Myers.
The Invictus Athlete Camp is our opportunity to share with others the coaching and training principles we have found most effective in preparing our athletes for competition. The training and coaching principles presented will be geared toward individuals hoping to compete, at any level, in the sport of CrossFit. Whether you are looking to compete at a local competition, perform well in the Open, qualify for Regionals, or make it to the CrossFit Games, our coaches and athletes will have many lessons to share with you to help get you closer to your goal.
