The gym! Especially a CrossFit Gym!
Today we’re showcasing co-owner Adam Murphy with Crossfit Neighborhood.
Adam and the coaches of Crossfit NBHD have a unique combination of formal education, professional certifications, and real-world experience. The coaches have trained CrossFit Games athletes, fitness newbies, and everyone in between.
Their goal?
They want each member to achieve their health and wellness goals. That may be getting a first pull-up, competing, losing a few pounds, or simply doing life better.
Classes run from 5 a.m.-7 p.m. There’s even an “open gym” you can visit 24/7. So, yea…no excuses!
To sign up for a trial class, visit their website at The-NBHD.com. You’ll be surrounded by folks who share a commitment to health, wellness, and maximizing performance. I’ll see you there!
