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.

Another weekend where I am unable to walk...

Interesting video, Colin. I really enjoyed it. I love the part when they gave the employees 24hrs to work on whatever they wanted and they got great results. PURPOSE and MASTERY. Two words that will stay with me today. Just want everyone to know that Colin loves what he does with crossfit and I am here to say that there have been amazing changes in him ever since PURPOSE and PASSION have entered the daily routine! Hopefully you all have that in your daily life and if not.... come find it at CROSSFIT BISHOP!

Nice, Molly. I liked it, too. It is similar to Coach Glassman talking about excellence and with it as is the focus success will follow. But money as the goal will not carry the same energy as mastery, purpose, and excellence. There was another video you can access from a link on that video on empathy. It was equally as good.

wow, those farmers walks are FUN!!! Kind of get addicted to trying again or trying more weight. Had a lot of fun with Colin and Jess this morning. Jess set a new PR on her deadlift doing farmers walks! Awesome. The mental toughness to 'just hold on a little longer'..... and not smash your toes when putting them down! You should have seen Colin doing it with two barbells and some obscene amount of weight. Highly recommend this one.

That was sooo much fun!!! What a rush crossing over the finish line with all that weight! You guys were amazing! The photos I took on my phone are a little grainy, but still way cool to see Colin with a fully loaded barbell in each hand!

Ah, the bonus Farmer Walk!!! Such a wonderfully unusual feeling of heaviness during the walk leading to the strange aftermath of arms floating toward the sky afterwards. We'll have to get some hay bales next time...
