After spending years in corporate gyms with very little to show for my efforts, a friend suggested I try CrossFit Clackamas. When I looked at the website, I found every excuse to stay away: it’s too far, it’s too expensive, it’s too hard and I’m too out of shape! The truth is I was intimidated by the workouts and afraid to look stupid in front of people. So I stayed at my old gym, on and off, doing the same hamster routine as everyone else and getting the same results as everyone else. At 46 years old, 5′ 10″ and 226 pounds with 30% body fat, I knew something had to change so I made the call to Jason and scheduled my first workout. I haven’t looked back…read more *UPDATED*

This is my story about what brought me to CrossFit Clackamas and why it was one of the best decisions I think I have ever made.

About a year ago  I had noticed that my body was starting  to betray me; things like scoping out the nearest restroom just in case I had to make a mad dash, my feet hurt, my knees hurt, by back hurt, my shoulders hurt you get the idea.  I just didn’t feel like getting off the couch any more. Normal things seemed to require too much effort, like cooking dinner or walking the dog. I wanted to keep up with my grown kids and my new little granddaughters but found it harder and harder.  I didn’t like feeling that way at all…read more *UPDATED*

“I have a weak upper body due to genetics”  “The only way to diet is to starve and eat stuff that tastes like crap”  “I don’t have the time to get in good shape”  “All Gyms suck”   “Working out is easy” -Jimmy Dorsey, June 2009

Let me backup a bit…  I have been in fairly OK shape for most of my life until the last few years as I became a father (and a realtor) and stepped away from a lot of activity.   When I came to CrossFit I could not do a pull-up to save my life or do 5 real pushups in a row.  I was 30 lbs overweight and yes pathetically out of shape… read more

When some friends of mine told me I should join CrossFit I was very skeptical. A gym where people work out in groups with free weights sounded really intimidating but they finally convinced me to come. It wasn’t at all what I thought it would be, everyone was really friendly and encouraging and Jason breaks down every exercise step by step so learning was simple. The gym was full of normal people in all different stages of fitness so being an out of shape mom was no big deal. .. read more

“I LOVE CrossFit! I have been a certified group exercise instructor since 1998 and
I have to say these are the BEST overall body workouts I have ever been involved in.
The environment is like having a personal trainer every time you workout. CrossFit
Clackamas has an excellent staff that will help you achieve great form, functionality,
and intensity in your workouts. Going against the clock on the workouts motivates
me to get better each time and I never mind a little competition, especially
when I try and beat my husband. If you have not tried CrossFit, give it a shot,
you may just get completely hooked and become a CrossFit junkie like myself
and so many others. ”

“CrossFit is like no other workout I’ve ever experienced! I have gained strength,
endurance, and just an overall knowledge of what fitness is supposed to be.
Even at my fittest, I could barely do push ups from my knees, and now I can
do real man push ups, it’s incredible! The encouragement, competition,
training and motivation at CrossFit Clackamas is so far beyond what you get
at any other gym. Honestly, I didn’t know what a real workout was until I
tried this, it’s a serious, kick-your-butt, come back for more, workout.”

 

Jeromie

“As an intern, I have developed a love and appreciation for what CrossFit
has to offer, and Jason elevates the experience to a new level.
CrossFit is going to re-define the fitness industry.“

“For years I’ve spent 2 hours a day five days a week
following advice of trainers at a national chain gym. 
Now I’m spending 30 minutes a day five days a week,
and in a few months I’ve gotten thinner, stronger and
my cardio levels are higher than ever.  Jason has
taught me how to lift safely and efficiently.  CrossFit
has not only gotten me in the best shape of my life
but it also saves me time and gives me more time with
my family.“
