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.

For twenty minutes:
10 Power Snatches
10 Pull-ups

Multiply snatch load by rounds completed.

10,000 pounds of CrossFit gear from Rogue Fitness is arriving tomorrow here in the eastern sierra!!!  A few thousand of those pounds will be added to CrossFit Bishop and the rest will be going into our new location in the industrial park up in Mammoth!!!  Coach Pablo and I spent several hours today re-organizing the gym in preparation for bringing in the new gear tomorrow!  

In other news the Reebok CrossFit Games start on Friday.  The athletes have arrived in California and are being briefed about the weekend over the next couple days.  Molly and I would like to invite all of you to come and watch with us.  We'll watch on our flat screen TV at our home and though our house is a little on the small side, we'd love for you to come on over and check it out.  We live just about 100 yards from the gym!!!  It's gonna be super fun to watch this year, as it looks like the competition will be absolutely fierce and swimming will be thrown into the mix.  Looks like we're gonna need to start throwing some swims into our workouts...

I personally would be super psyched to see some swim workouts incorporated at CF. That's what I spent the first half of my summer working on, instead of CF :( Gotta add, though, the winter of CF workouts before starting back up swimming in 2011 made my shoulders soooo stable for swimming; first year with no swim-induced shoulder ache.

Krista you are awesome! It is always so inspiring to work out with you. But, today pushed me even harder. Great inspiration :) Always proud to be a Kiddoo, especially within in the CrossFit walls.

Anyone know when the CrossFit games are on? Anyone TV? Channel? I heard Colin is having a PARTY!! WHOOT WHOOT!!

July 27, 2011 | Unregistered CommenterJake

Jake, it is streamed live online, not on TV. We bought cable hookups to be able to connect our comupute to our TV to watch it. The event times have not been announced but it starts on Friday. Go to games.crossfit.com (I think that's it) and you can check out all the cool videos/updates for the games thus far! We are having people over to our house, come over!
