| - A couple years ago I lived in Oregon, weighed 200 lbs and spent a lot of my time on the couch. Drinking wine and eating crap. A friend encouraged me to try CrossFit, which seemed absurd for someone as decidedly un-CrossFit-ish as I was. But eventually, in order to shut her up, I did it . . . and quickly fell in love with the program, my gym buddies, eating well, and transforming my life in every way. I felt better and could do more at 50 than I did at 40, or even 30. Then, last June, we moved to Chandler.
Eeeeeek!
I was scared to death to start at a new gym . . . with new people . . . who didn't know my story. But I was quickly welcomed by coaches and athletes alike. Although I'm plodding and slow, have physical limitations, scale/modify just about everything and rarely Rx a workout, no one ever makes me feel less than or like I don't belong. There's excellent instruction/coaching, encouragement, and camaraderie to be found for everyone. Literally everyone. Not many places, especially gyms can make that claim. CrossFit Infernal can . . . though you're not likely to see or hear them sitting around bragging about how great they are. Infernal owners and coaches will be far too busy doing what they do day in and day out to make themselves, their business, and everyone who walks through the door the best they can be.
