One of our events
I was so excited ot hear my gym was voted, Best in Phoenix for the Fitness insane. I think in anything I do it's great when people acknowledge and/or appreciate me/it. This is why I had to write a post about my "box" (gym)...
So even though the award doesn't grant Core CrossFit anything other than recognition, it stands for much more. Crossfit is becoming more mainstream, Reebok even has a CrossFit commercial out. If you haven't heard of it I assume you must be hiding under a rock some where (and not reading this post). My point being is there are a lot more CrossFit boxes popping up and many more people joining the community. So for our box to receive this award is saying a lot.
I love that I can walk into Core, knowing I'm going to be met with a intense workout, coaches to push me, and fellow members to encourage me. And I can be in and out of the gym in an hour. It's a bonus that I can grab a piece of fruit after, chat with other members about my diet or recovery techniques... At this gym you won't see advertisements with "healthy" McDonald choices on the walls. But you can find information about proper nutrition, how you can be most successful with your goals and people who will hold you accountable.
I'm so happy for Core to receive this award. Thank you, Kim, Tom, Ali, Santana, D.J., Bryon, Adrian, Preston, Ray and Maya for all your dedication. Your hard work is appreciated and the community is taking notice... On a side note, damn you keep the gym clean (I totally appreciate that)!
