"Hello my name is Greg. I'm 61 years old. I'm also a recovering addict. What's cooler than that, is that I'm a member of Crossfit Seymour. 15 years ago i stopped using drugs on a daily basis and turned to food and laying in bed to treat the way i felt after i got clean. November 2019, after talking myself out of it, scared to death, overweight, out of shape, and ashamed I called my brother and asked what gym he recommended. I knew nothing about how to get in shape or even how to go to a gym. I also had never heard of Crossfit. All I knew was that i had issues that were only getting worse and i didn't know how to do it on my own so I needed to ask for help. One of the scariest and hardest things I've ever done in my life was walk across the street and open the door to Crossfit Seymour that first time. The next couple times weren't much easier, but thanks to one of the coaches , Desiree Hall, I kept coming back. She made me feel welcome and comfortable in a VERY uncomfortable situation. I desperately needed a change and the decision to join was was one of the best decisions I've made for my life in a long time. Each time I walked out of the gym I felt good about myself. The Crossfit Seymour team and its members have made this an extremely smooth, enjoyable transition into a new way of life. I'm an addict. I'm self-centered and self-conscious. Although everyone has made me very comfortable there, I have to remind myself that I'm only in competition with myself. Thank goodness for the coaches! They are great about modifying the workouts to meet your mobility and capability. Plus teaching technique to keep us safe. All the while leaving you with a feeling of accomplishment at the end of the day. I really can't put into words how good that feels. It's really a kind of feel good pride I hadn't ever experienced before."

What others athletes are saying
I've been a member at CFS for over 4 years and counting. They have an experienced, educated training staff and great community environment. The people are fun and the workouts are challenging. I wouldn't CF anywhere else!
CrossFit Seymour is the centerpiece I've built a more active lifestyle around. The coaches and athletes are very supportive - it feels like family when I'm in class. I'm not the most athletic person and always feel each class has been a good, hard workout. But I've never felt that I didn't belong, and I've always felt that safety and proper technique are the top priorities.
I've been a member for 3 years and I absolutely love every second of it great coaches, great members and workouts that you will feel for days after completing but at the same time will have you wanting to come back for more. Crossfit Seymour has a awesome new facility to anyone that is curious about crossfit just come try it you will love it no matter what your abilities are it does not matter every workout can be modified to fit your fitness level.

I have never been in better shape in my whole life. Crossfit Seymour showed me that I am so much more capable than I thought. I've even got off of my blood pressure medications. I owe a lot to this gym.
