I've been a member of Crossfit 704 for almost a year now. I started in June with my Foundations Course and continued since then. Will, Phil, and Abby are amazing instructors and they all have a special way to unlock the skills and movements that you need in order to unleash your potential.
You've probably heard a lot about Crossfit from various places. For most, it brings with it a strong emotion either way. I can tell you that I was not a regular gym rat. Sure, I biked every now and again, but I wasn't feeling a strong attachment to it.
Since joining Crossfit 704, I've seen great improvement to my work outs. I think if you find the right box, CrossFit is an awesome choice for a lot of people.It's different every day, so it's never boring, someone is writing your workouts for you so you don't have to think about it, and its fun.When I don't show up, people notice and ask where I was.It gets you to do things you wouldn't do on your own. I would never go running or rowing on my own - but if it's in the WOD, I don't have a choice. Also, I'll go and do things that I would never do before (such as yoga classes, or spending a saturday afternoon doing hill sprints) because I know it will help me get a better time on a WOD later on.
Does it work? Well, what's your goal? If it's to get in better shape or to lose weight, then yes, it works. However, it's not some cureall magic pill - as with any other training program, you will get out of it what you put into it.
This location is amazing. Crossfit is all about community, and I feel it every time I show up. HUGE part of CrossFit is the supportive community aspect that comes with each gym. I guarantee you'd finish a workout a few seconds (or minutes) faster if you had 10 people screaming your name and cheering you toward the finish line.
The coaches, the community, the life changing possibiltiies - you have no reason not to check out Crossfit 704. read more
