Member Testimonial:
“I am a 62 year old woman with RA and Fibromyalgia who joined Cross Fit EXP five weeks ago. I do not have a history of doing any exercise on a regular basis, so I knew from day one that CF was going to be a huge challenge for me. The coaches have been absolutely fantastic! They currently modify the exercises for me so even though I may not be accomplishing the same movements as the rest of the class, I’m definitely getting a workout and I am already moving better than I ever thought I could. Although I felt a little intimidated my first day in the Box, I have found everyone to be very friendly and encouraging. It’s a great atmosphere where people can exercise together even though they may be at different levels. I highly recommend it.”
