The Five Heart Rate Zones

Optimize Your Training with Heart Rate Technology

The heart is a highly sophisticated, individualized physiological tool that guides members to fine tune their workouts using heart rate technology to reach their goals.

Track heart rate, calories burned, training zones and intensity while you exercise, whether that be at the gym, on a run, playing sports or swimming. The IGNITE Mobile Health App lets members collect and review training activity and bio-data from our devices.

What To Expect In The Club

Strength Training

CKF’s periodized strength progressions are the backbone of our program. With changing daily focus, tempos, and intensities you are sure to stay engaged and motivated! Our science-backed programming allows members to work out efficiently and effectively on a daily basis. Coaches will provide regressions and progressions to the standard workouts to fit your needs and goals.

HIIT Training

High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is all the rage in the fitness world! Why? Because it works! One undeniable fact is the efficiency in which an individual can achieve incredible results in a fraction of the time. CKF backed data also demonstrates how this training modality is not solely limited to improving fitness markers such as aerobic and anaerobic performance but also increased lean muscle mass, calorie burn, and increased basal metabolic rate.

 

Kick Boxing

Boxing and Kickboxing are incorporated into our industry leading HIIT workouts giving CKF an advanced dynamic. Incorporating high-energy cardio and endurance will give your body and mind a boost and take your workouts to the next level. Imagine getting through your strength progression and lighting up the bags for an all-out finish to your workout! Welcome to Cross Kicks Fitness!

I've been training at Cross Kicks Fitness, and it's been an awesome experience. Everyone there is welcoming, and the trainers are experienced, motivating, and always willing to help you improve. They take the time to teach you the right techniques, push you to be your best, and create a great environment to train in. I've gotten stronger, more confident, and feel more prepared every time I step on the basketball court. I also highly recommend the stretching sessions with Stephanie. She does an amazing job and really knows what she's doing. Getting stretched before basketball helps my body feel loose, recovered, and ready to play. I always leave feeling better than when I walked in. If you're looking for a place with great trainers and people who truly care about your progress, Cross Kicks Fitness is definitely the place to go.

Coach Abby virtually trained me for the NYC Hyrox when I was unable to come out to CFK due to work, she is incredibly supportive and welcoming, and adapted my workouts to be able to more accessible to me in my commercial gym for the entire 12 week program. She answered any questions I had and always offered extra supports. The CFK gym itself is one of the best communities and best coaches Ive had to pleasure of being introduced to.

Loved this place!! Walking in after a day of work and not having to think about a workout is the absolute best. The coaches are very helpful and knowledgeable if you don't know how to do something or just want a little extra push (one of the key benefits of going to a gym like this is for accountability and support, right?!). They also leave you alone if you don't want to be bothered ;). It's nice how there is a different workout designed for each core muscle group every day. Very clean space and has all of the equipment I need in a gym. Lastly, the friendly fitness community and fitness challenges they offer are so special and what sets this place apart from other gyms. Highly recommend!!

Tony and Abby have built something unbelievable at Cross Kicks. They truly care about EVERY person that walks in. This is the best 50-minute workout you’ll find—period. The trainers are elite, the people are awesome, and the energy is next level. They don’t just push you in workouts—they help you with your health, your nutrition, everything. If you’re nervous about trying it, don’t be. Just show up ONE time… you’ll be hooked. Amazing culture. Amazing people. Amazing place.

I joined Cross Kicks South Elgin about 2.5 months ago after years of working out at home and struggling with consistency and to really push myself. Deciding to join a gym was a big step, and I’m so glad I did. This place has quickly become a second home for me. I’m now showing up 4–6 times a week and actually miss it on the days I’m not there. The community is incredibly kind and supportive, and the coaches do a great job of helping you learn more about movement, muscles, your body, and nutrition along the way. The workouts are never boring; they’re always changing things up so it stays interesting and challenging. I’ve seen real progress in both my strength and consistency since joining. I’m so grateful I found Cross Kicks and plan to be a member for a long, long time.
