Coach Thad has officially settled the debate absolutely no one asked him to solve: glute bridges build more cake than hip thrusts. 🍰🍑

CrossFit is basically the definition of Type 2 Fun
.

During the workout:
“Whose idea was this?”
“I’m never coming back.”
“I can’t feel my legs.”

Five minutes later:
“Same time tomorrow?”

Somehow we voluntarily pay to do things that leave us lying on the floor questioning our life choices
 and then spend the rest of the day telling everyone how awesome it was.

If that’s not Type 2 fun, we don’t know what is.

✹Member Spotlight: Meet Phil (aka Philly)✹

🏀 From Athlete to CrossFitter
Phil grew up playing just about every sport imaginable—basketball, baseball, track, and cross country. But despite loving competition, fitness wasn’t always a priority. Like many kids growing up in the ’80s, he fueled himself with Jolt Cola, Lunchables, and plenty of Chef Boyardee.

Today, he’s a proud dad of three boys, works remotely in higher education, and spends his free time coaching his kids’ teams, mountain biking, enjoying the lake, or convincing himself that running long distances is still a good idea.

đŸ’Ș Why CrossFit?
Phil started CrossFit in 2019 after noticing the “dad bod” slowly creeping in. Between raising three young boys, poor eating habits, little sleep, and long hours at a desk, he knew something needed to change.

A neighbor convinced him to try CrossFit, and he was hooked almost immediately. He fell in love with the challenge, the constant opportunity to improve, and the mental toughness that comes from choosing to do hard things.

đŸ‹ïž Favorite Movement?
The Sn**ch.

Ironically, it started as his least favorite movement because he struggled with it. Instead of avoiding it, he attacked the weakness until it became his favorite lift.

“I love that it’s one of the most technical movements in CrossFit. It exposes every flaw in mobility, positioning, timing, and strength, which means there’s always something to improve. And let’s be honest
 when you hit a good sn**ch, taking a barbell from the floor to overhead in one smooth movement just looks awesome.”

❀ Why He Keeps Showing Up
His biggest motivation is simple: his three boys.

Phil wants to be the dad who can coach their teams, keep up on adventures, wrestle in the yard, and someday be the grandpa who’s still throwing the football instead of watching from a lawn chair.

CrossFit isn’t just about fitness—it’s about building a healthier future for the people who matter most.

😂 Fun Fact
This might be the hottest take we’ve ever featured


Phil doesn’t like chocolate
 or ice cream.

We know. We’re still trying to process it too.

Coach Appreciation Post❀

In all seriousness, behind every great class is a coach wearing about 47 different hats.

They’re coaches, motivators, cheerleaders, programmers, cleaners, event planners, equipment movers, social media managers, therapists, DJs, problem solvers
 and sometimes even plumbers. 😅

They show up early, stay late, celebrate every PR like it’s their own, and do countless things behind the scenes so our members can simply walk through the doors and focus on getting better.

A lot of what they do goes unnoticed, but it never goes unappreciated.

To our coaches: thank you for your time, your energy, your patience, and the passion you pour into this community every single day. CrossFit Calypso wouldn’t be the same without you.

We appreciate every hat you wear—even the ones no one ever sees.

Gym friends are more than just friends.

They’re the people you see almost every day. They know more about your life than some of your closest friends and even family. They see you on your strongest days and the days when you’re running on empty. They celebrate your PRs, notice when you’re not yourself, and always save you a spot next to them.

They’re dependable. They’re consistent. They push you when you need it and encourage you when you don’t think you have anything left to give.

Some people join a gym to get stronger. They stay because of the people.

The friendships built through shared sweat, early mornings, and hard workouts become something special—and sometimes, they’re exactly the people you need most. ❀
