Prove to yourself that you have improved yourself, with 2022 Benchmark workout testing I think the saying goes something like, “if you fail to plan, then you should plan to fail” With that in mind, and the fact that we’ve got a brand new year unfolding in front of us, we wanted to take an opportunity to lay out an overview of this year’s training plan.  Everyone knows that we believe in the idea of testing and re-testing certain workouts to track progress.  It’s not just for bragging rights, but it’s the way we deliver results.  Whatever your individual goals are; get stronger, lose weight, have more energy, or improve your cardio, we want to get you there.  The CrossFit methodology is something that we fully subscribe to, and we believe that if you “improve your work capacity over broad time and modal domains” (CrossFit’s OG tag line) then you...Read more

Yes, its still a thing, and yes you can still use it whenever you need to!!! One of the things we like most about our gym is the Forge. For those of you who don’t know, the Forge is the Open Gym side of our space that functions like a catch all for everything other than the main WOD. From the beginning, even back at the old space, it was always our vision to provide members with fitness opportunities that go beyond the group CrossFit class. Way back when, it never seemed plausible that we would run short on space, but that time is here, and things are getting tight in the Forge. What we said back in August was… “Experienced members with Unlimited CrossFit memberships may use the Forge space during Open gym time however they see fit. This means, strength training, met-cons, mobility, or accessory training.” Things have...Read more
