Testimonials

I love Crossfit Bishop. I am the kind of girl that isn't content with 30 minutes of "cardio" on a bike, or a step aerobics class. I like the full body burn, the opportunity to compete, and most of all the surprise that comes with doing something you didn't think you could do. Crossfit is the master at all of this. Crossfit breaks your body down so it can build back up into a better stronger one. It challenges your mind when you do three more reps than you thought possible. And it teaches your heart all you are capable of. Colin is a great instructor. I’ve never had a personal trainer but it is awesome having someone watching your form so closely, it makes you feel safe knowing that someone is looking out for you during challenging exercises so that you can push yourself a little further. Crossfit Bishop has got Colins intensity and attention to detail, Mollys inspiring fitness and kind spirit, a group of incredibly fun and fit people who are as psyched as you and an adorable baby too. Its certainly one of my favorite places to be in Bishop!!

Crossfit Works!  As a young buck, flush with time to get out in the mountains, I felt strongly that the best training for climbing and backcountry skiing was... climbing and backcountry skiing.  Now I'm by no means the busiest guy, nor do I have the most sedentary job, but I've felt the pinch of time in recent months.  I've spent many days over these busy months with Colin at Crossfit Bishop.   Colin energizes the classes, exudes knowledge and confidence, and successfully walks the fine line between motivation and all out pushing.  I just had my first opportunity in months to test my new Crossfitted bod'.  I can say that the total body training and the fresh, varied workouts make a huge difference!  The strength and endurance gains from Crossfit really shined on a recent one-day, monstrous exploratory ski tour in the High Sierra. I look forward to continuing to train and continuing to express strength gains.

I really appreciate all the dedication, knowledge, and energy you and Molly are so generous in giving. Your trained, focused attention and interest in supporting not only my fitness goals, but maximizing the quality of my performance, keeps me engaged and committed. It is inspiring to be around and has been a great catalyst fueling a new level in my health and fitness. It has always been a priority for me, but sometimes the conditions just have to be right to step up the quality and intensity. I suppose much like a CF workout...So, really, thanks. You guys are providing something very worthy to the Bishop community.

- Paul Elia

CrossFit is a different kind of fitness program that requires much more than gripping a bar and hammering out concentration curls. The complexity and variety of the movements, coupled with the intensity makes for a compelling system of improving one's physical and mental fitness. This is not accomplished without expert, careful, selfless coaching which Colin Broadwater provides.

Man, I got some ouch working from yesterdays ass-over-teakettle attempts. Shannon wants to train today...can we slide in there around 2:30 or more likely 2:45?

Got to do this WOD at the quiet 9 am class this morning with the CrossFit veteran, Sarah Malloy. First muscle up workout since the dreaded elbow injury reared it's ugly head, and I made it through with zero pain!!! Naya got to join in for this one on the 400's which made things extra fun. Scaled the thrusters to 120#'s and cruised in at 18:30. Did I mention zero elbow pain!!!

Any comments about leaving the gymnastics warm up behind???

I've decided that Thrusters RULE!

Great about your elbow! And about the gymnastics warm-up...constantly varied, right? It has been cool to see an increase in everyone's ability and confidence in the gymnastic movements and I know I will keep on working on my weeknesses in this area. I like the idea of the Oly training and focusing/warming up together before the WOD.

Workout was fun this morning...just as I thought I had a shot at catching Colin, he turned on the jets during the second half of the fourth round run, and blasted through that fifth round like it was nothing! Those thrusters sure felt heavy at 88#, but I was psyched to get it done. Didn't wreck me near as much as the row/thruster one from last week. Looking forward to wednesday!

Sweet workout! Gotta work on flexin my core on those thrusters! Whoa!
Request:
Can we do that one drill where we heave those giant bean bags up the wall with the spot lights and everything? That looked like fun!
