Let’s give a huge shoutout to Troy, who joined the CFT family in March 2023 and has already achieved so much! His story is nothing short of inspiring—a testament to resilience, determination, and the power of community.

Big news, CFT family—the outer shell of The PHNX is officially complete! 🎉 The walls are up, the structure is standing tall, and we can already picture all the incredible things that will happen in this space.

We are beyond excited to share that Coach Steven Sawyer has been featured on the cover of Alabama Construction News! He was honoured with the Safety Director of the Year Award for his exceptional work at Brasfield & Gorrie, where he’s been a dedicated team member for 25 years. 👏🏼

We all know Coach Schmohl as a dedicated leader and coach, but what many of you might not know is that he recently went above and beyond in a truly life-saving way. At the Maggie’s Rules Softball Tournament, an umpire tragically collapsed on the field, suffering a heart attack. In front of fans, families, and young athletes, the situation quickly became critical.

Meet Jamie, a Nurse Practitioner and devoted grandfather who is living proof that age is just a number. Despite his busy schedule, Jamie has made fitness a priority at CrossFit Trussville, reminding us all that it's never too late to take control of your health.

We’re beyond excited to share some incredible progress with you—The PHNX is officially under construction! The ground is broken, footings are poured, and Andrew is already standing in what will soon be the pit for our elevator to the second floor.

Last month, we had the privilege of hosting a fantastic seminar led by Dr. Stephanie Perez, and we cannot express how grateful we are for her expertise and time. Stephanie's workshop on pelvic floor health provided valuable insights to our athletes, coaches, and community of strong women who are eager to learn how to "lift like a lady."

When it comes to dedication and drive, Coach Brian sets the bar high. Every time he shows up, he brings a contagious energy that inspires everyone around him to push harder and be their best. Whether he's training himself or leading our ReBoot classes, Brian’s commitment is unmatched.

This past Monday, we had an incredible InBody Scan Day at CrossFit Trussville, and we couldn’t be more excited about the turnout and the knowledge everyone gained. For just $10, participants got a full body composition analysis, including muscle mass, fat percentage, and other key metrics.

What an amazing day we had at our Heroic Hearts Fundraiser, supporting the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation! The energy, the community spirit, and the dedication to such an important cause made this event one for the books.

Working out alone has its perks—you control your routine, and there are no distractions. Personal training also offers valuable 1:1 guidance. But if neither appeals to you, there’s a fantastic alternative:

group exercise classes

We all know exercise is great for staying healthy. You might want to work out to lose weight, build muscle, or avoid getting sick. But with a busy work schedule, finding time to exercise can be tough. Sometimes, people focus more on their jobs than on staying fit.

Do you really need a gym membership? Maybe you’ve been working out in your garage or jogging at the park, and it’s been working for you. But a gym offers some benefits you can’t get from a home workout.

When it comes to training, more isn’t always better. Pushing too hard without enough recovery time can lead to overtraining syndrome, which can seriously hurt your performance and progress. Left unchecked, it could set you back for weeks or even months, making it crucial to recognize and prevent before it derails your hard-earned gains.

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and together we've made a meaningful contribution to the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation. Your support helps fund vital research for better treatments for childhood cancer. It's amazing to see our community come together for such an important cause.

A huge shoutout to CrossFit Trussville athlete Mike Pender for finishing 7th in the Men’s 70+ division at the 2024 CrossFit Games!

A huge shoutout to Maggie and Tara for knocking out their FIRST bar muscle-ups at CrossFit Trussville! Moments like these are what make the journey so worth it, and these strong mamas crushed it!

CrossFit Trussville had the incredible honor of participating in the 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb, right here in Birmingham, alongside the Birmingham Fire and Rescue Service Department. Together, we climbed 110 stories to remember and honor the brave firefighters and first responders who risked and sacrificed their lives on September 11, 2001.

We’re excited to celebrate Kristy Windham as our Athlete of the Month for September! Since starting ReBoot in February 2023, Kristy has been a dedicated and inspiring part of our community at CrossFit Trussville. Here’s what she had to say about her fitness journey:
