THE BEST GYM NEAR ME IN Mystic

THE GYM FOR
FITNESS FRIENDSHIP NUTRITION MINDSET YOU
IN Mystic

HEY THERE! ARE YOU TIRED OF:

Boring Workouts Alone?

Workouts are way more fun together! Our purpose is to pass on empowering knowledge and training guidance in order to have a positive impact on the health and fitness of everyone we work with in the Mystic area.

Wasting time Not Getting results?

Because life is too short for time wasted in the gym working out alone, at Crossfit Dyr you become part of a strong tribe of like-minded individuals encouraging each other and winning at life.

Not Having A solid Game Plan?

Our main focus at Crossfit Dyr is guidance and structure. Life is full of long work days and every day challenges that keep us from getting what we really want – to be in great shape, be confident and for your body to do what you ask of it.

THEN WE'RE READY

TO GUIDE YOU

ON YOUR JOURNEY!

CrossFit

Our coach-led group fitness class is for everyone! We use a combination of cardio, bodyweight and weights to maximize your hour with us. The workouts are different every day with a huge emphasis on getting you started safely whatever your current age or ability.

Kick-Start

The goal of the kickstart program is to teach you the fundamentals of Nutrition and CrossFit in a fun, safe, and sustainable manner. No prior experience is necessary, as we will work with you at your own pace and provide a simple and effective nutrition plan to Kick-Start your fitness journey, and help you reach and exceed your goals.

Olympic Weightlifting

Are you looking to develop more explosive power, strength, speed and athleticism? Our Olympic lifting program is built to do exactly that. Whether you’re a seasoned lifter or just starting out, our Olympic lifting program has everything you need to achieve your goals.

Skill Training

Our skill training class is perfect for honing your skills and learning new movements. Practice makes perfect, and this coach-led class breaks down less common and trickier exercises that you’ve been dying to try but haven’t had the time to!

Mobility Training

Joining a coach-led mobility training is a perfect cooldown after a tough workout, when your muscles are sore and need aid in recovery, and when you simply need to work on your mobility to gain range of motion. Mobility training is a crucial step in fitness training to help prevent injuries and stay young.

Open Gym

Don’t let a busy schedule hold you back from achieving your fitness goals; our welcoming gym offers open access to accommodate your dynamic lifestyle. Use the equipment and training space at your convenience, as you find inspiration and support within our community.

Nutrition

Stop dieting and restricting yourself and start focusing on healthy habits with a proven personalized plan. CrossFit Dýr’s nutrition is founded in creating real change, education, and world-class coaching.

My boyfriend, Nick, and I had an amazing experience at Dyr. We attended an incredible 8:30am Saturday class. I appreciated the helpful demonstration and modeling from Sheri. The gym is beautiful, clean, and huge. Staff is warm and welcoming. Members were friendly too!

I have never exercised like this before. Face to face accountability and encouragement. Challenging, fluctuating exercises that don’t get boring. A very low monthly fee considering you basically get a personal trainer as many times a week you that want to show up for yourself. Group workouts are also motivating. It is a huge savings and better quality versus paying a trainer for one or two sessions for the same price. I’m glad I found this place. James, Sheri and their crew are so positive but won’t let you quit on yourself. People need more of that!

I lived in Groton just for the summer and was warmly welcomed by all the coaches and members at Dýr. The new gym is large, fully stocked with all necessary equipment, and the programming is strong (and cardio heavy). Sherri is not only a coach but can be a resource for nutritional needs, and Shannon is a rockstar coach who motivated early morning workouts. If you’re new to CrossFit or a seasoned vet, go check the gym out - everything can be scaled and you can find new ways to get strong and push yourself.

CrossFit was the workout I was looking for but didn’t know it. My daughter talked me into it, and now I love it! It’s always different and challenging. I love the coaches at Dyr CrossFit, they do a great job of pushing us, but also making sure we are practicing good form and staying safe. They also promote an environment of fun, camaraderie, and community with all members, which makes it even easier to show up and stick with it.
