One of 432 - Wednesday, July 15th, 2026

One of 432

This morning, I sat down to write a blog about the importance of tracking your progress.

Then an email notification popped up.

Naturally, the blog took a completely different direction.

The email was from Dave Castro.

A couple of weeks ago, just before CrossFit Indestri celebrated its 16th anniversary as an official CrossFit affiliate, I sent Dave an email. I wanted to thank him for everything he has done for CrossFit, its affiliates, coaches, and community over the years. I also asked him if he happened to know how many CrossFit affiliates around the world had reached the 16 year milestone.

This morning, he replied.

Along with congratulating us on reaching 16 years, he shared some numbers.

There are currently 432 CrossFit affiliates worldwide that are 16 years old or older.

366 of those are in the United States.
29 are in Canada.

I sat there for a minute and let those numbers sink in.

CrossFit is a global community. Over the years, there have been thousands upon thousands of affiliates that have opened their doors around the world. To know that CrossFit Indestri is one of just 432 affiliates worldwide to have reached 16 years, and one of only 29 in Canada, is incredibly special.

Those numbers aren't about being exclusive.
They're about longevity.
They're about showing up, year after year.

They represent thousands of classes coached, countless workouts completed, friendships built, challenges overcome, and lives changed.

They represent every coach who has stood on our floor, every member who has trusted us, and every person who has walked through our doors over the past 16 years.

No gym reaches a milestone like this because of one person.
It happens because of a community.

To everyone who has been part of CrossFit Indestri's story, whether you've been with us for 16 years or 16 days, thank you.

You are part of those numbers.
We're incredibly proud to say that CrossFit Indestri is one of 432.
