It’s been just over a year since I first started with CrossFit and I am pleasantly surprised that I am still working out and in fact look forward to the next WOD. I had tried various places and plans to work out but always used to drop out or get injured and quit. This time...Read More

  It’s crazy to think that my CrossFit journey started exactly a year ago from today. If you would’ve asked me back then if I could see myself doing pull ups or squatting 285 lbs, I would’ve laughed at the question. Fast forward a year later and not only am I capable of pull ups...Read More

I started CrossFit 6 plus years ago on my 50th birthday.  It was my version of a “mid-life crisis” 🙂 It has totally changed my life in more ways than I could have ever imagined. Little more than a year ago I had a my left hip replaced.  I had “bone on bone”and I was in...Read More

After almost a year of trying to convince myself to get into the gym, I finally took the hardest step and walked through the door of CrossFit Route 7 and signed up. What convinced me was the great stories and results that I had heard about from CrossFit Route 7 and their fitness programs. I...Read More

After seeing an advertisement on Facebook I decided to give CrossFit a shot and signed up for the Foundations program. I liked the Foundations program, the instructors, and the people, so I signed up for a membership afterwards. I could only commit to something short-term, so I signed up for a 3 month membership. They have...Read More

As a first time crossfitter, I was very fortunate to stumble upon CrossFit route 7. From my very first interaction I knew this was the place for me! I came in as a new you challenge participant which is a six week intro program. Before the challenge began, I met with the head trainer(BJ) for...Read More

CrossFit Route 7 has been my sanctuary for the last 2 plus years since I moved to the U.S. Being a friendly Canadian that moved across the continent I was looking for a new home.  I emailed a few boxes and BJ was the first person to respond, welcome me in for a workout, and...Read More

I joined the CrossFit Route 7 community in the fall of 2016, with about a year and a half of CrossFit experience under my belt. I came in thinking I had a good understanding of what CrossFit was all about, and how most boxes operated, but boy was I wrong. CrossFit Route 7 is by...Read More

I think working out throughout pregnancy is important, as long as it’s safe for you, especially considering after the baby you can’t/don’t have time to lol.  My goal was to work out 3x a week throughout the entire pregnancy, but I managed to do up to 5x a lot of weeks.  It  was very difficult...Read More
