My guess is that there's a lot of people who got injured doing CrossFit. That fad seems to be over.

I am as well, and it’s expensive at $270/month. But that covers my son and I and he has a team program in that fee as well which covers 2 hours a week of coaching.

Climbing gyms have pretty nice weight setups but definitely you’re not paying for luxury. 16,000 sq. Foot gym and there’s only one shower so you might get stuck waiting. And no massages or smoothie bar or cafe or any of that stuff.

Huge chain and locations all over the place which is cool for traveling.

I still absolutely stink compared to cycling but it’s fun.
