If you are traveling over the holidays, go visit another affiliate. When visiting another CF gym it is always a good idea to email or call ahead. Most affiliates will be open to a drop in traveler from another gym. Those who have strict limits on class size, however, are obligated to serve their members first. Some affiliates may request a quick call or email from one of your trainers here at CFSB to ensure you have been involved in CF classes for a certain amount of time and can dive into any class. We will all be glad to vouch for any of you.
It’s always fun to see how gyms in other cities deliver the CrossFit experience. Maybe they do something really cool or different with the warm-up. You may experience a workout that you love. Occasionally they will give a cue or explain a movement differently that helps get your head around a struggle area. Checking out another CF affiliate may just give you an idea for the coolest ever wallball targets. Share some things you love about our gym that may help them improve.
Observe and learn all you can. Then bring your new knowledge back to CFSB. We want to hear it. Your suggestions and observations will only help CFSB improve and better your experience. If nothing else work off some access holiday carbs and bring me a t-shirt. Happy Travels!

Any time, Vince! You are welcome back here at CFSB whenever you’re in town.
Yeah, it was great checking out the new gym and seeing some old and new faces. Thanks for all the hospitality and keep up the good work!
