When my friend first told me about crossfit, I was intrigued. He had sold me on the idea, even after seeing it be the butt of many jokes online for years. I tried a couple of local area Crossfit gyms and while the workout routines intrigued me, none of them ever seemed to click. When I found Crossfit Uprising, it was basically my last shot at trying crossfit before deciding it just wasn't for me. Luckily, CU was the difference I was looking for.
Jared, the owner, was very welcoming and helpful when I did my intro week. He helped scale workouts to my level of fitness and was very quick to correct my technique when it needed it. Everyone at the gym was very welcoming and were quick to provide encouragement during work outs. Crossfit Uprising has been a great environment for me for the last eight months and I *almost* look forward to working out now.
