Ask me 3 years ago if I’d be doing Crossfit and I would’ve told you…HA!!! LOL. No way, Jose. I’d always been under the impression that Crossfit was for mega ripped athlete types who eat only Paleo, and that’s not me. So when my significant other discovered Crossfit REP’s solid online reviews in 2017, I decided to give it a try with him. Now, almost 2 years later, there is a huge difference in my strength and endurance.
The best thing about Crossfit is that you can scale the movements to your level - there is no shame whatsoever in doing so. My first year at REP, I focused on learning and feeling confident with the Crossfit movements while not going too heavy. Only in the past few months have I begun to push myself more and clean up my diet, which has yielded more noticeable results. Not only that, but I feel better overall, have more energy and actually look forward to my evening workouts.
REP offers effective programming (it’s so much easier to have workouts planned for you), GREAT coaches (they truly care about you using good form and prevention of injury - super important to me), and a friendly community (all ages, backgrounds and skill levels do Crossfit, I love it). Yes, Crossfit is more expensive than joining Gold’s or Planet Fitness, but if you’re anything like me, I find it impossible to push myself during solo workouts. Working out with a small group helps with this. I also appreciate that REP doesn’t try to push a specific diet on you (i.e. Paleo, I’m vegan).
In my opinion, the pricing at REP is fair and you get great value for your money - as long as you show up and put in your best effort. I’ve always been of the mindset of investing my money in preventing health issues down the line…a gym membership and quality food will be cheaper than prescriptions and hospital visits. So think of it as an investment in yourself. Give Crossfit REP a try, be consistent, and you can reach your fitness goals - whatever those may be.
