Testimonials

"This year I made a commitment to myself that I would continue to work on my
core strength when I was done coaching my high school team.  You see, I do
all the core workouts with them (I don't believe in making someone do
something that I can't do myself).  But normally once the season is over I
kind of drift away, and before you know it by the end of the racing season
I'm suffering from injuries again.  I know it's because of a weakened core
strength/stability.
I contacted Adam, and started up the first week of February.  I was sore,
really sore after the first week, but it was fun, and I also knew it was
good for me.  Since working with Adam (and training partners Rise and
Shelley) I've seen improvements in posture, upper body strength, and most of
all the nagging injuries that had plagued me for months have disappeared.
My hip flexor strength (hell, my legs in general) have more speed and power.
I also have had great triathlon coaches as well, but adding the Cross-Fit
has helped me to step things up a bit.  Today (SPCA 5k) I had my best 5k
time in over 2 years!  And I look forward to a successful season as well
when I compete at USAT Short Course Triathlon Nationals and as part of TEAM
USA for the World Duathlon Championships as well."

"After only 8 weeks, my life has been changed by RareCrossFit.  I have finally found what I’ve been looking for in a fitness program.  I was a competitive gymnast as a child.  As an adult, I struggled to find anything (sport or fitness program) that challenged me physically and mentally.  With Crossfit, I am able to be competitive with myself and with others continually striving to be a better athlete.  I look forward to every workout no matter what Adam dishes out.  I now believe that “what does not kill me makes me stronger.”  RareCrossFit is Fantastic!."

"CrossFit helped our athletes strengthen both their upper and lower bodies, in addition to their core muscle groups.  The athletes enjoyed the individualized instruction and motivation offered and the opportunity to maximize their workouts."

"Whilst visiting friends and family in the USA in July/August this year, I was trained for 4 weeks by Adam from RARE CrossFit. The workouts helped me to lose the last few stubborn pounds to reach my goal of a 50 pound weight loss and made me feel fitter than ever.  While there I also participated in the Richmond Muddy Buddy and enjoyed it so much I am hoping to do it again next
year."

"Since adopting CrossFit as my workout routine, I not only feel stonger and more confident, but am probably in the best shape of my life.  I ran my first half marathon in May 2008 in just over 2 hours, completed the Richmond Muddy Buddy in July and am looking forward to many more events.  Until CrossFit, I was unable to do a push up, and now I can do 10 in a row.  I am now working towards my first pull-up."

"After a month and a half of CrossFit workouts and the zone diet, I have not only lost 15lbs, but my energy levels have increased and I feel better than I have felt in a long time.  I have always played sports and been involved in many strength and conditioning programs over the years, but none have produced the results that CrossFit has.
After experiencing CrossFit, I can’t imagine going back to any other type of workout program.  I actually look forward to my next workout.  I plan to make CrossFit a Permanent part of my life.  Thanks again to RARE CrossFit."
