Is CrossFit Finally Catching On In NYC?

by David on April 24, 2009

I have a membership at a GloboGym here in Manhattan. My wife and I used to just get a few looks while knocking off some kipping pullups, some overhead squats, or an intense metcon. But never any questions, and never any recognition of what we were up to.

Now? Virtually every time I go, I either spot a fellow CFer, or get spotted myself. Usually, it’s the kipping that gets noticed. 

Seems to me that one of the toughest markets to crack so far, likely because of real estate prices and New York gym goers expectation of “amenities”, is starting to come around.

It’s just a matter of time until we’ve got this whole city increasing its power output.
