Crossfit in Wareham

Looking for Crossfit in Wareham, MA? Although Crossfit has become something of a popular “name brand” in the fitness industry over recent years (with franchises cropping up everywhere), there is only one place that has been named the South Coast Region’s #1 Favorite Health & Fitness Center for the past SIX years in a row… Nexus Martial Arts & Fitness!

With an unheard of student retention rate of over 90%, Nexus is truly the place where people who have not had success elsewhere come to reach their goals!

But why would someone looking for Crossfit in Wareham choose Nexus? Well, we are no stranger to this style of training, but our fitness training programs go even a step further…

Nexus offers multiple functional strength & conditioning trainers on staff, including owner and Chief Instructor Stephen Whittier, who was the first  in the world to attain the level of Master Trainer in the Burn With Kearns Core Fitness and MMA Conditioning systems by globally renowned fitness coach, Kevin Kearns.

The staff also includes Head Personal Trainer and Bootcamp Instructor, and one of the top functional strength and conditioning coaches in the Southern Massachusetts, James Simmons.

According to James, “while we don’t offer Crossfit in Wareham per se, we do have many of the same philosophies… basically, we agree on a lot of what’s good but we steer away from the bad, such using protocols that are leading to a lot of the injuries out there. Having someone do highly technical Olympic lifts after sprinting, for example, is not something I’d recommend.”

Says owner, Whittier: “We are very careful to provide fitness programming that not only challenges people appropriate to their level (beginner, intermediate, etc.) we also make sure it’s fresh and motivating for the long haul. We’ve got fitness only classes, womens’ bootcamp, and also our MMA Fighter Fit for people looking to get the fitness of a pro MMA athlete without actually doing martial arts.”

For more information, contact Nexus at 508-295-5427 or visit Our Website Today!

UFC 159 Jones vs Sonnen

Posted on April 27, 2013 by jeff perez

UFC 159 Jones vs Sonnen

UFC 159 Jones vs Sonnen features one of the most highly anticipated matchups since Jones has dominated the light heavyweight division, as these two Ultimate Fighter coaches finally go head to head.

Many questions remain to be answered in the title fight… so far Jones has seemed unbeatable in the division, using his height, length, wrestling and unorthodox striking to pick apart all of his opponents. As we’ve seen with Sonnen in the 185 division (where he famously mauled champion Anderson Silva for 5 rounds in their first fight only to be caught in an 11th hour submission), however, he brings a completely different energy than many of his opponents have ever faced before…. one that may be as difficult to train for as Jones’s.

UFC 159 Jones vs Sonnen also features several other big fights such as well rounded contenders Alan Belcher vs. Michael Bisping, heavy hitters Roy Nelson and Cheick Congo, and wrestling beast Phil Davis vs. submission specialist Vinny Margalhaes.

Want to try Mixed Martial Arts training for yourself? There is only one professional school in the area that has trained numerous professional UFC athletes – Nexus Martial Arts & Fitness!

You don’t have to get into a cage or beaten up to enjoy the great benefits of training and learning MMA. As a matter of fact, we’re not just an award-winning martial arts school, we’ve been voted the region’s favorite health & fitness center for 6 consecutive years as well!
