One month away
On July 5th, CrossFit Indestri will officially celebrate 16 years as a CrossFit affiliate.
That date marks the day we received our affiliate approval back in 2010. While our first classes didn't begin until September of that year, July 5th is where the journey officially started for CrossFit Indestri.
Sixteen years is a long time in any business. It's especially a long time in the fitness industry.
Over those 16 years, we've watched a number of fitness and nutrition trends come and go. Every few years there seems to be a new answer to fitness and nutrition. A new system, new approach, new reason why what everyone was doing before was supposedly wrong. And for much of that time, CrossFit has been one of the easiest targets.
We've heard that what we do is too intense, too hard, too dangerous. We've watched people build entire businesses around telling others why they shouldn't do CrossFit.
But let's be really honest for a second. Hurting people would be a terrible business model.
No affiliate owner spends years building a facility hoping members get injured. No coach dedicates their career to helping people move better so they can push them into situations they aren't prepared for. And no successful gym survives for 16 years by breaking people down.
The reality is exactly the opposite.
People stay because they get healthier. They stay because they get stronger. They stay because they move better than they did when they started. They stay because they can do things that they never thought possible.
That's what good coaching does.
For 16 years we've been teaching movement. We've been helping athletes understand mechanics before intensity. We've been scaling workouts, modifying movements, working around injuries, and meeting people where they are.
The workout has never been the goal. The goal has always been helping people improve.
We've coached former athletes and people who had never stepped foot inside a gym. We've coached kids, teens, parents, grandparents, and everyone in between. We've coached people preparing for competitions and people who simply wanted enough energy to keep up with their kids.
What we've learned is that fitness isn't reserved for a certain type of person.
Fitness is for everyone.
The needs of our athletes differ by degree, not kind. Every person who walks through our doors deserves coaching, guidance, and a plan that meets them where they are.
That philosophy hasn't changed since 2010, and neither has our belief that coaching matters.
As we get closer to our 16th anniversary, we're incredibly proud of the facility we've built. Not because we've survived for 16 years, but because of the people who have made those 16 years possible.
We've watched friendships form, families train together, confidence grow, and lives change. We've celebrated personal bests, supported one another through difficult times, and built a community that extends far beyond the workout itself.
CrossFit Indestri has never just been about fitness. It’s also about the people.
Our community.
One month from today, we'll celebrate 16 years as a CrossFit affiliate.
To every athlete who has trusted us with their fitness, thank you.
To every coach who has helped shape this place, thank you.
And to every member who continues to walk through our doors and make this community what it is, thank you.
We're grateful for the last 16 years, and we're excited for what's still to come.
One community.
One WOD at a time.
Functionals Fitness and Community are not buzz words at CrossFit Indestri.
They’re what this facility was built on.
