Located at the basement parking of Fairground, SCBD Jakarta, Bengkel CrossFit is a dimly-lit studio specialized in, well, CrossFit. It’s a program first founded in California that incorporates functional movements from gymnastics, weightlifting, running, rowing and many more, performed at high intensity. Every individual’s performance during the Workouts of the Day (WODs) challenge is scored on a board with the purpose of making it more fun and competitive.

Jennifer Mulianto, is an athlete who’s currently training for CrossFit competition, is one of the class’ participants that night. “It helps me in terms of not only being active and fit but also builds up my strength. It helps you to be stronger as well at the same time and the most important thing for me it’s always fun, it doesn’t get boring for me to train,” says the 31-year-old.
