S.K.V. Hercules – CrossFit Twente University is the only student sports association in the Netherlands offering CrossFit on a large scale. With around 70 members, we host three weekly training sessions at Crossfit Twente, a former church that’s among the most beautiful CrossFit boxes in the world.
The Training Sessions are Monday and Wednesday 21:00-22:00 and Friday 16:00-17:00.
Our workouts combine professional coaching in weightlifting, gymnastics, and high-intensity WODs (Workouts of the Day), focusing on building strength, endurance, and technical skills.
But Hercules is about more than just training: we bring members together through social events, competitions, and activities to grow both as athletes and as a community.
Founded in 2001, Hercules is the oldest student strength sports association in the Netherlands.
Join Hercules and become part of a fit and supportive community – we can’t wait to welcome you!
