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.

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.

Hey Folks!!!  We will be making a significant change to how we get new recruits started in our program here at CrossFit Bishop.  We'll be expecting a bigger commitment to learning from new athletes, while giving more back in return in the way of personalized coaching.  A minimum of 10 one on one sessions (not including our free introduction) will now be required before entering into our group classes, and we will recommend a total of 15 for most.  There are several reasons for this change, but the big one is that we have very, very high expectations of people and we want to give everyone willing to take on the challenge, the best chance to succeed at achieving their health and fitness goals!  

To get this new intro. program started, I will be dropping the Intro to CrossFit personal training rate down from $60/hr to $50/hr to anyone who starts up between now and the end of June!!!  Starting July 1st, the rate will go back to $60/hour.  My normal personal training rate is $70/hr, so realize that this is actually a really sweet deal!!!  I know that dropping $500-$600 all at once into a fitness program may sound like a lot, but don't forget what health and fitness means to all of us.  We all have to put ourselves at the top of our priority list at some point, and I guarantee that you will not find a better all around health and fitness program anywhere in the world than CrossFit!!!

On another note, I know I've said it before, but I'll say it again...  Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who has become a part of the CrossFit Bishop community so far!!!  So many of you have made such positive changes in your overall health, fitness, and athleticism that it is  simply staggering to think about.  There has been so much positive change that has occurred over just the past year and a half, and I'm so incredibly proud to be a part of it!  Over the next several years we will all raise our game together, to higher and higher levels with the addition of more coaches, more programs, and hopefully very soon here a second CrossFit facility in the Eastern Sierra!!!

Oh, and by the way...  It's a boy!!!
