    This has been my Crossfit gym for about 2 and a half years. What I love about Crossfit is that you…read moreshow up and do the work of the day (WOD) it kicks your a$$ for an hour and then you go home. You don't have to think or get creative; they do it for you. It works different muscle groups and never gets boring. This gym has some really great coaches, Glenn and Tobi are my favorites. They don't push you to a breaking point, or bark at you like a drill sargent. They will come up with all sorts or modifications based on what medical conditions you may be dealing with (knee problems, back problems, recovering from surgery etc...) class size ranges from 3 people to 20 depending on peak times of the year. Classes are avialable 5am, 6am, 7am then 430pm, 530, 630 pm Monday - Friday . Limited morning classes on the weekends 9 and 10am. The actual times vary slightly based on the day of the week. The downside is I don't really like to exercise so I usually go once or twice a week. My husband goes 4 to 6 times a week and he has blown past me in his progress. The gym is kept clean and the owner is continually working to improve and upgrade aspects like the new ski-machines, assault bikes and flooring, the bathrooms and the kids area etc. My least favorite thing is that some of the loyal-every day members have their kids running all around the gym space. This is despite the owners attempts to post on our group Facebook that this shouldn't be happening. I worry one of them will get hurt and they will turn around and sue the gym. I can't speak for other Cross fit "boxes" places but I hear from other long time crossfitters that this gym is something really special.

    Although I have only had my first official "check in" today" I have been a member of this "Box"…read moresince November and I freaking love it! Part of the Relentless Nation (there are 3 other locations in West Hartford, South Windsor, and Higganum) - my Box has become a place for me to develop strength that I have not seen in a while. At first I was not sure what to expect. I, like many, had heard the stories of "crazy crossfitters" lifting heavy sh*t with their sexualized lingo (WOD, snatch, double unders) and not feeling like they got a good workout in unless they puked. WHAT?? As a runner by passion - I know pain and discomfort and if you ask Mark C - I am a bit crazy so since I was looking to switch things up during my "off season" I thought I would give it a go. Worst case scenario - I hated it or worse pulled something and that would be the end of my Crossfit experience. Plus I had heard that Crossfit had helped runners increase their speed - and I am all for that! I sent an e mail to the owner to ask about 033 and we set up a time for me to come a try it out. When I arrived I was warmly greeted by Patryk, signed a waiver and basically "thrown in" with the others :) Honestly it was better than that - I was introduced and then we got down to business - warm up, modalities, strength, WOD and cool down were explained and then we were off. I know some other Boxes have newbies go through a fundamentals class but I did not. The first day I was like a fish out of water but the instructor scaled my workout and the other participants were friendly and offered advice. I went home and the next morning I woke up sore in places I had not been in a while - and I went back for more! The instructors have been great and always are there for a spot, provide some extra instruction and sometimes just yell when you might want to give up during a WOD. My consistency has paid off as now I have a routine and the instructors have come to expect me on certain days. I also have to say that everyone I have met - from the new newbies to the veterans could not be nicer. At first I was a little intimidated but this has helped to push me and dare I say look up You Tube videos at night so that I have some clue as to what we are doing the next day in class. That is another great thing about is that one of the owners posts the next day's workout on their Facebook page - its been a great way to psych myself up (and You Tube) for what lies ahead. I have been a member for about 2 months now and am so glad I signed up. It has provided me with a challenge not only to my muscles but to my mind as well. My conversation with Mark C still includes running but now he has to learn all this new lingo - much of which I am still learning myself. But its been a learning experience - and a path I have been happy (and sore) to embark on!
