When I first met Tristan I thought he was a d-bag. That's not to say he's a bad person, I just thought he was cocky. He joined Boot Camp relatively fit by the average American definition. He looked decent but he couldn't snatch, hit multiple pullups, or a muscle-ups, so not THAT fit by CrossFIt standards. ...Read More
I first attempted CrossFit in 2009, but only on an on again, off again basis. I was terrified of the larger classes, and had so much anxiety that just signing up for a class was daunting. I'd try to pack my fridge with primal friendly food, but most evenings I'd crave a pizza...Read More
We often get so wrapped up in our newer athletes progress, that's it is very easy to overlook those that have been CrossFitting for years and years.

Now, I have so many friends – almost all of them are from Albany CrossFit, which is nice because we all have similar goals and interests, and we can...Read More
At Albany CrossFit I like the quality of coaching, the attention to detail in teaching form, the general friendliness of the people you run into on any given day. But it's the results that keep me coming back. You put in as much as you want to get out of it. From general wellness to...Read More
I enjoy the Albany CrossFit community the best, hands down, second to none. It's all people around my age, with the same goals, the same likes, the same struggles, they understand when I get so excited about achieving a goal because they want those goals too. The Towers (Lynn and Mary) play a big part...Read More
