  This is the fifth box I have been a part of. I have seen a lot of coaches. And I can say that Crossfit 1836 is a shining example of what an affiliate should be.
  
  Matthew Alexander leads coaching with an emphasis on not just form but scaling for performance and quality. At a time when Crossfit has really lost its identity, it is great to find a box with it’s core values intact with a high degree of integrity.
  
  The members are also a delight. And for a person, like me, that is quiet and appears standoffish it has been a great experience.

  1. Before starting at CrossFit 1836 what was it that you were looking for?
  I was looking for quick fix to my challenge of high blood pressure. I was on two medications for 3 years, and I tried to work out on my own. Between walking and zumba classes. I wanted to also make some changes since heart disease is in my family, I needed to make some serious changes.
  
  2. What kept you from getting there?
  Major lack of motivation and fatigue. I never saw myself in a gym like CF1836, much less a CrossFit gym.
  
  3. How did Crossfit 1836 and Nutrition help you overcome it to get what you were looking for?
  Starting with Nutrition helped with my energy, so much. It also helped with some weight loss, making me feel physically better and stronger and confident to try to work out. I was blessed to build trust with my Nutrition Coach (Sara) who also worked with me one on one with private sessions in the gym, for a couple of months. I learned some fundamentals, safety and lingo, that really helped me feel confident in starting a game plan to work out. Sara has helped me a lot, in regards to not see meal prepping as such a major hassle. As well as getting into the gym.  Sara helped me see the excuses I built in my mind, and squash them. Transform them to bridges to help me overcome the obstacles I created overtime. Even now, when I may have an "off" day or busy life schedule, I remember some of the tools and motivational tips and I have been able to pull myself out of that rut and get back on track. I am not staying in those rut moments as long as I use to.
  I look forward to seeing myself get stronger and accomplishing new PR's in different ways.
  
  4. What is life like now that you have overcome and achieved success?
  I never would have pushed myself as hard as I do in a class. After 6 months of CrossFit, I was able to get off and have been able to stay off both blood pressure medications. I have lost weight and gained muscle. I actually look forward to working out, because of how I feel, accomplished and strong. Workouts are able to be modified so this helps me so much to get a workout in and not get hurt. I love my gym community as well. I look forward to seeing my fellow team members and coaches. I actually miss people, when I do not see them often. We all have built accountability with one another and will check on each other. Even encourage each other to participate outside of the gym in some physical positive exercise or competitions. I have been able to share my knowledge, tips and motivation that helps me with people around me. My main goal is to teach my children to be better equipped for their physical and mental health success. This my journey and I am grateful to have CF1836 to help along the way.

  I enrolled my middle school son in the main program to develop some strength and overall fitness and work ethic for sports. He has been so stoked about each workout and comes home totally beaming with excitement and pride. This is really a supportive and fun place for ALL to get strong and fit.
  
  He’s pretty picky when it comes to athletic programs, so I am blessed that these folks are nearby.

  I joined Crossfit 1836 three months ago and it was the best decision I did for my health. I was lacking movement and my body was feeling tired, worn-out and i wasn't sleeping well. I recently had the opportunity to be a part of their "28 days nutrition challenge" and it was life changing for me.In the "28 days nutrition challenge, I learn good nutrition habits for a healthier lifestyle like how to plate my plate, techniques to de-stress, how to prep meals, etc.The coaches provided me with support and accountability to help keep those healthy nutrition habits.I feel more energetic, I sleep better and the inflammation in my body has been less. I recommen thisHabit based approach nutrition challenge to anyone who is interested in a better way of living.I since then have signed up to continue the nutrition coaching with coach Sharon and I can't wait to start.Thanks ?

  I’ve always been a gym quitter. I join, don’t commit and quit. This gym has community, and makes me want to be there. They make it fun while holding me accountable. The coaches do a great job showing modifications of the movements so that anyone at any level can do the workouts. The nutrition coaches have helped me really dial in my nutrition and focus on what’s important. I’m only a few weeks away from my first year here and can’t wait to have many more!

  Joining the 1836 Nutrition Challenge really helped recalibrate my nutritional focus and reinforce a habit based approach to success! The Challenge was a great way to revisit the building blocks of nutritionally balanced meal/snacks and the daily practice of accountability tasks. I love the group program interactions as well as the individual checkins. Sharon and Sara are so approachable and really made me feel at ease.

  Going from sedentary lifestyle at 63 to 3 WODs/week. It has really improved my outlook on the future.

  The coaches and atmosphere of CrossFit 1836 are amazing....they are extremely hands on and it's more like a family feeling on helping you become a more "healthier you"...even when I'm not up for it the motivation they provide drives me to push myself...they believe in you, so there's no reason why you can't believe in yourself...signing up here was one of the best decisions, EVER.....I also signed up for the nutrition and the way Sara cheers me on, boosts my confidence and shows me that no matter how small the achievement it's an achievement....

  I’m a very active person and I love working out, I have practice different disciplines, and different gyms and CrossFit 1836 have been so far the best. I have become a way much better version of my self in such a short period of time, I knew I was missing something and I’m so glad I found what it was.Their nutrition coaching is just the best, I have been with three different nutritionist, and I thought I knew it all, but when I tried their nutrition system my performance changed drastically for good and I can’t just express with words how thankful I am for being part of this amazing family. So far the best investment in me ❤️

  I started CrossFit 1836 a few months ago and chose to start with a program that paired a nutritionist and 3 workouts a week. I was always hesitant to try CrossFit because in my mind, I was afraid of injuring myself and was afraid I couldn’t do all the things CrossFit includes in their workouts. Plus , I wasn’t sure if I wanted to invest that money in myself. I am super glad I did because the way CrossFit 1836 sets up their new members is truly a step up from other group fitness programs. When I started, I had multiple private sessions with a coach that helped me feel super comfortable with equipment and movements that are used often. I also love that as I integrated into group classes, the coaches were still super helpful and the other members were very friendly. I also met with one of their nutritionists throughout the first few months for check ins, nutritional support and goal settings. My goal was to feel stronger and have more energy. The nutrition was a huge help because as a nurse, I frequently eat fast food after long days and skip meals. Sharon (the nutritionist) has helped me come up with lots of healthier snack/meals on the go options for me that have helped me gain muscle and lose fat, while still enjoying the things I love. I highly recommend joining this gym and investing in yourself.
