Success stories

You have to be in shape to join crossfit. That was the lie I always told myself because I was actually really scared. After some major convincing, my husband agreed to come with me.

I tried CrossFIt 2 years ago and I swore I would never do it again. I wasn’t instructed on how to do anything and coming into CrossFit not knowing anything can be very intimidating.

An invitation from a friend began my journey with CrossFit Activate. From the first time I walked through the door, I knew this was going to be very good. The atmosphere was positive, friendly and exciting.

Of all the boxes I’ve called home, Activate has definitely welcomed me in with open arms! The coaches are all knowledgeable, and they’re programming is unique and effective.

My name is Alison Hearn. I’m a wife, a mother, band nerd, Harry Potter fanatic, and last year I turned 30. I’m telling you this because I felt like these were excuses to not be “good” at crossfit. But I’m also going to tell you why that’s not true. 

I’d heard about Crossfit for a couple years. I was slowly becoming surrounded by “crossfitters”. After I graduated high school I went straight to college and gained so much weight.
