| - I am coming up on my 2 year anniversary since I started at the CrossFit Combine and I am still amazed at how truly life-changing this gym has been for me personally. I honestly wake up happy Monday through Friday at 4 am to get dressed and ready to meet up with my fellow Combiners at the 5 am class. Some days are groggier than others, but for the most part, we're all there to make that progress happen and to hear our amazing coach Ryne say the words: "All right 5 AM!" Then we know it's go time!
Before joining the Combine, I admit that I was a little hesitant to enter through their doors. CrossFit can be very intimidating to a lot of people who have pre-conceived and ill-informed ideas about it. But I knew that me doing just straight cardio like running and biking was no longer doing anything to transform my body. Plus, I started to really tire of doing both of those things as it seemed the group I would do those things with constantly wanted me to sign up for an event here or there. I got burned out and I needed and wanted to do something other than that. From the very beginning of my CrossFit journey, I immediately felt at home at the Combine. The owner, Colby Phillips, is a very encouraging and positive coach who was very patient with me, putting me at ease with the movements. The coaches of The CrossFit Combine will never have a member perform a movement that they themselves don't think that person can do. They're very skilled and trained at assessing each person's level of fitness right off the bat. That is the beauty of The CrossFit Combine - any person at any age and fitness level is treated with the utmost respect, care and kindness as they adapt to every workout. This is why Progress happens at the Combine. You start out where you are in fitness, wherever that may be, and you work your way up.
Having been a "gym gyspy" for many years, going from one to another based on whatever type special they had, I was never satisfied or motivated to continue my membership at any of those places. If I wanted to do a class, it was always packed and never worth the effort as most instructors at those commercial gyms have little to no contact with checking and correcting form. I get everything and more from being at The Combine and for the first time in my life, I have stayed completely consistent with my daily exercise regime.
It's the place, the coaches and The Combine Community itself that have kept me coming back for more. That beautiful and inspiring spirit of the place and the people encourage me every single day to be better than I was the day before. This is exactly why I look forward to waking up at 4 am every morning.
