Manifesto

Where the sweat turns to blood.. That's where I live

Where the pain starts to take on a voice and talk to you.. that's where I am

Where your vision narrows and the color leaks out, leaving you with black & white.. That is where I thrive

Where the air becomes heavy and you swear you are going to drown in it but can't get enough into your lungs.. that's where you'll find me

Where others quit.. Where others stop.. Where others give up.. You will find me there and you will find me still sweating, still in pain, without sight, unable to breathe, still on my feet..

When you get there you will know me.. I will be the last man standing

I am Crossfit

What You Need To Know About The Forge

We are a Certified CrossFit Affiliate offering:

Professional, MULTI-certified Trainers...

Professional Coaching...

Professional Experience...

We have Trainers here who are themselves capable of elite performance by practicing exactly what they preach. We believe that you can not take anyone anywhere you yourself have not been. Kind of like paying for the nutritional guidance of a fat nutritionist or dietician whose own body composition was far less than desirable - 'just don't make no sense'.

We ARE committed to EXCELLENCE.

We ARE committed to YOU.

Our gym is NOT open to the public.

There is no drop in or "check it out" time. Everything you need to know is right in front of you. If you would like to come learn more about what we do, send us an email and make an appointment to go through your introductory session. Please do not call and ask about price. We don't compete on price; we compete on quality, skilled professional coaching and training, and most importantly, RESULTS. In the end, we DELIVER, period.

There are PLENTY of places A LOT less expensive. We firmly believe that YOU get what you pay for. If you want something for nothing, then nothing is what you will get. PLEASE check out the lower price places BEFORE you come to us, so you KNOW what you are getting. If you are looking for VALUE and coaches who truly care about you and all facets of your training and have a track record of TRANSFORMING clients, then you are in the right place.

At CrossFit Saints Forge, WE FORGE ELITE COMMITTMENTS...

Nutrition News

Today we had the first in a series of "Learning to Fish" Nutrition classes.  Thank you to Damion for providing his indepth knowledge and guidance on this important subject.  The take-home message (or at least one of them) was hormonal (insulin) control and how to achieve this through proper nutrition.  Please submit topics of interest and questions that you would like to have addressed at the next gathering.

Great job, Damion, and THANK YOU!!!

Damion talking about the EPOCH.

“In all the controversies over what the causes of diversities might be, no one seems to have paid much attention to the factor in the environment that has the most obvious effect on any organism: food.”
- Michael Crawford & David Marsh, The Driving Force: Food in Evolution and the Future

“To eat is a necessity, but to eat intelligently is an art.”
- La Rochefoucauld

“He that takes medicine and neglects diet, wastes the skill of the physician.”
- Chinese Proverb

 Stomach: A slave that must accept everything that is given to it, but which avenges wrongs as slyly as does the slave.”
- Emile Souvester

I found this listed as an “improvement” of the well-known proverb:

“Give a man a fish, you have fed him for today.  Teach a man to fish, and you will not have to listen to his incessant whining about how hungry he is.”—Author unknown
