CAN YOU GET STRONGER WITHOUT A STRENGTH CYCLE?

Absolutely.

One of the biggest misconceptions about CrossFit is that without a dedicated, periodised strength cycle, you’re somehow missing out on strength development.

But strength isn’t built exclusively through sets of 5×5 or a planned 12-week progression.

It’s developed through consistent exposure to challenging loads, progressive overload, improved movement efficiency and adaptation over time.

In CrossFit, that stimulus comes from multiple places.

🏋️ Dedicated heavy lifting days.
🏋️‍♀️ Moderate-to-heavy loads throughout the week.
💪 Strict gymnastics and bodyweight strength.
🔥 Challenging workouts that develop muscular stamina and work capacity.

And yes, we still test our 1RMs!

Does traditional periodised strength training work? Absolutely. It’s particularly effective when maximising a specific lift is your primary goal.

But CrossFit has a broader objective.

We’re not just trying to build a bigger squat. We’re trying to build a fitter, stronger, more capable human.

Strength matters. So does endurance, stamina, power, coordination, mobility and everything in between.

That’s the beauty of CrossFit. We don’t have to choose between being strong and being fit.

👉 Swipe through to understand how strength development fits into CrossFit Affiliate Programming (CAP).

STRONGER TOGETHER 2026 is coming. 💥

Our annual in-house pairs comp is back and this year we’re doing things differently.

This event brings together members from CrossFit Gym Cartel and CrossFit Desire for a day of fitness, fun, teamwork and community… followed by our Christmas Party. 🎄

The twist?

You don’t choose your partner.

Athletes will register as individuals, and teams will be randomly drawn.
RX will be paired with RX.
Scaled will be paired with Scaled.

We’ll have:
🔹 MM, FF + Mixed Pairs
🔹 RX + Scaled Divisions
🔹 A fun, community-first atmosphere
🔹 Christmas Party vibes to finish the day

📅 Saturday 12 December

This one is all about stepping up, meeting people, backing your training, and being part of something bigger than just a workout.

If you’re a member of CrossFit Gym Cartel or CrossFit Desire, keep an eye out. More details are coming soon. 👀

Train together. Compete together. Celebrate together.
