Who we are

Empire Athletics is a strength & conditioning facility located in Bend, Or.  We offer small group classes and individual coaching focusing on functional, measurable, varied fitness (like pushing, pulling, squatting, lifting, running) executed at high intensity.

Empire Athletics is more than a gym; we are a tight knit community.  We hold each other accountable to give our best at each and every workout.  We cheer each other on, support each other, and push each other to achieve new levels in fitness.

What we do.

At Empire Athletics you will not find rows of exercise machines, treadmills, or stationary bikes. What you will find pull-up bars, kettlebells, barbells and space.   The space is for movement, the kind of functional movement you need for everyday life…squatting, running, jumping, climbing, lifting and throwing.  We train you by moving your body the way it is meant to be moved, the way you move it during every day life.

As with the challenges in life, we will always challenge you in different ways. With our constantly varied CrossFit programming you will rarely do the same workout twice in any given year. You will never get bored.  We will provide you with a workout that will not require you to spend hours in the gym.  We will also insure that our workouts will be scalable to suit your fitness level. And because our workouts are rarely longer than 40 minutes they can fit into even the busiest schedules.

Our goal is to provide you with the best general physical fitness possible.  We will improve your capacity in ten recognized fitness domains: endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance and accuracy. The result is comprehensive physical fitness and restored vitality.

You also be provided with the tools and information for proper nutrition and diet. We will evaluate your athletic and physical fitness level and then scale each exercise and workout to your abilities. No one is ever too out of shape or in too good of shape.
