Cordis Fitness

What has your gym done? . Ask yourself what your gym has done to adapt. Did they open earlier than their respective phase? Did they continue to charge full membership fees for the whole closure? Have they gone above and beyond the guidelines to ensure everyone is safe in the facility? These are questions a lot of gyms would be nervous to answer, not us. . What has Cordis done?... Full Membership pauses. Online options & rentals. Full transparency. Full reno to ensure safety. Expanded options/offerings. Placed member safety & compliance over profits. . Our facility receives the highest standard of cleaning & safety protocols. We are fully equipped to offer the most diverse range of workouts because we have the most diverse and well stocked inventory of equipment. No sharing required. . Values. When the dust settles, no matter what the future has in store for gyms like ours, we can look back and say we never compromised our morals to stay afloat. We put members health at the forefront because that’s what we teach and train. It would be hypocritical to do any different. Can your gym say that? . If you’re looking for a place to train with likeminded people that centres on making you healthier, fitterand actually keeping you that waythen come in for a free trial class. Our coaches have decades of experience and actually practice what we preach. We can make a difference (physically distanced high five) #communityfirst #membershealthfirst #safety #cordisfitness #oakvillefitness @ Cordis Fitness See more

We are so proud of our Cordis community and the heart each member displayed in this years Crossfit Games Open. This was by far the most exciting Open yet! Over the course of the 5 weeks we saw members get their first pull-ups, muscle ups, PR their snatch and string their first sets of double unders together! The energy in the gym was contagious with crowds of members surrounding each competitor as they finished their workouts. We are so lucky to have such a wonderful group of people here and can't wait for what next year brings #crossfitgamesopen #crossfitgames2017 #crossfitcordis @ CrossFit Cordis

It is our 5th Anniversary CrossFit Cordis, open and operating for 5 years now! Sometimes it seems like just yesterday that we opened the doors and started running CrossFit classes here at Cordis. Here we are, 1,825 days later we have literally trained hundreds of people from all walks of life. These people have lifted millions of pounds, rowed and run hundreds of kilometers, jumped on and over thousands of boxes, performed countless pull-ups and rope climbs, walked on the...ir hands and more They have done things they never thought possible and they have done it with and amongst friends. There has been much laughter and joy, there have also been tears and frustration it has never been, nor ever will be, easy (nothing good or worthwhile in this life is easily gained) the most satisfactory things are EARNED. We opened this place to build more than just fit/strong people we have attempted to provide a sanctuary away from the stresses of modern life, a place where people can come and make themselves better both physically and emotionally, a place where they can each, individually, walk out the door feeling brilliant about what they just did and what they have accomplished. As happens in these places, a strange alchemy occurs and a community forms at Cordis this has always focused on the HEART (Cordis being the Latin term for Heart) we have tried to spend the past 60 months building healthy and happy hearts and I think, for the most part, we have accomplished that. It never would have been possible though, without each and every individual who has passed through here Cordis is the sum and result of all of you and your unique contributions. We just provided the venue YOU provided the magic! For that, we THANK YOU. It has been a privilege and a joy to be a part of this and to witness it first hand here is to many more years of PURITAS CORDIS or purity from the heart. <3 #crossfitcordis #crossfit #oakville #gym #fitness #community #5yearstrong #wood #heart #love #wod #strong

The TRAINER TIRADES: - What’s my beef with the switch grip and deadlift? Several people have probably heard me rant about utilizing the Switch Grip in most CrossFit related Dead lift scenarios and some people seem confused or even angry by this position! My aim with this tirade is to clarify and help explain my rationale for this point of view....Continue reading

Look who's back from OBX, North Carolina! This is what happens when you take a nice relaxing beach vacation - you return all shiny and refreshed, ready to WoD hard and fast.

Rope Climbing should make a return as an Olympic Sport!

Lee Parkhill says it all in his post .... could not be prouder of him, YOU are a true Olympian Lee. Puritas Cordis <3 "A bittersweet finish to my Olympic Games after a solid final day. After a very disappointing first three races I told myself to never give up and to keep pushing till the bitter end. I can honestly say I did just that and can now walk away proud that I gave it everything I had! Over the past year, especially yesterday, I proved to myself that I could be among... the best in the world and that is an incredible feeling. Sure, there will always be the thought of "what if" or "if only", but on this week it wasn't meant to be and that is okay. Sailing is an amazing sport in that many of my competitors are also my close friends. On Monday I will turn into a spectator and a fan to cheer on those friends as they race for the medals. Don't get me wrong, I really wanted to be in that race but that is the beauty of sport, of the olympics, it brings every country together cheering for the same goal. This has been a truly unforgettable experience, racing in the Olympics, being part of team Canada and representing this country is a dream come true. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this journey and helped me realize this dream. Off to cheer on team Canada for a few days before flying home!" See more

This dude is creeping up the leaderboard! Go Lee Parkhill - the entire CrossFit Cordis community is sending you good vibes...

Also, Tia Clare Twomy, 2nd at the recent The CrossFit Games, is representing Australia in weightlifting.

We will be closed this coming Monday, August 1st, in order to worship this dude! John Graves Simcoe - he was a British Army Officer who founded York (now Toronto), was the first Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada and he abolished Slavery. He was tough ass, military and frontiersman who beat back American Rebels and was instrumental in the formation of Canada. Take this day off as an opportunity to get outside and do some Pioneer activities - run in the woods, chop some wood, move some heavy stones, climb a tree or swim in a lake. Then down a hearty Pioneer meal with a flagon of Ale! See you back in the modern world on Tuesday. <3
