I
highly
recommend
Crossfit
Empower.
I
have
been
training
at
Empower
since
2014.
Previously,
I
had
pursued
strength
and
cardio
training
individually
for
brief
periods
of
time.
My
athletic
background
was
fairly
limited.
Like
many
people,
I
joined
Crossfit
with
a
bit
of
apprehension
due
to
its
reputation
for
having
an
extreme
approach
to
developing
fitness.
However,
my
concern
was
quickly
dispelled.
Coaches
Corey
and
Leon
have
a
genuine
passion
for
making
their
clients
fit
and
healthy
for
the
long
term.
To
this
end,
they
emphasize
technique,
safety,
and
a
graduated
approach
to
training
intensity.
Moreover,
training
is
tailored
to
all
fitness
levels,
regardless
of
athletic
background
or
injury
status.
I
was
quite
impressed
with
the
athletic
gains
I
had
made
in
the
first
few
months
of
training.
Five
years
in
and
I
am
still
pursuing
and
attaining
goals.
Indeed,
I
remain
engaged
and
interested
in
my
physical
fitness
routines.
I
feel
my
mental
resiliency
has
improved
as
well.
This
would
not
have
taken
place
without
the
superior
coaching
delivered
by
Coaches
Corey
and
Leon.
There
is
a
genuine
community
feel
at
Crossfit
Empower.
Indeed,
this
is
one
of
the
greatest
strengths
of
Empower.
Regardless
of
ability,
all
members
receive
equitable
attention
from
the
coaching
staff.
All
are
welcomed
by
other
clients
regardless
of
ability.
We
all
celebrate
each
other’s
successes,
big
and
small.
Beyond
the
impact
of
the
daily
group
classes,
community
is
built
through
numerous
events
hosted
by
Empower,
such
as
the
Crossfit
Open,
Canwest
Qualifiers,
12
Days
of
Christmas
event,
and
various
fundraising
initiatives.
On
the
face
of
it,
community
does
not
seem
relevant.
However,
when
one
considers
the
importance
of
consistency
and
accountability
in
one’s
workouts,
community
is
key.
When
one
is
working
out
amongst
classmates/friends
one
feels
greater
motivation
to
complete
a
given
workout
and
maintain
consistent
attendance.
Thanks
to
Crossfit
Empower,
I
am
in
the
best
shape
of
my
life.
I
have
pursued
and
accomplished
goals
I
never
would
have
without
being
exposed
to
my
training
at
Crossfit
Empower.
