Today we’d like to introduce you to Adam Kress.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
My partners and I had been training with the CrossFit methods on our own for a few years. We had gotten excellent results with these workouts and wanted to help others get great results too. We lived in River North so we started looking for locations nearby so we could continue to follow the workouts at our own gym.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It’s been pretty smooth. Other than a leaky pipe or someone stealing nothing too crazy.
River North CrossFit – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
What really sets CrossFit gyms apart from some other group exercise programs is the results. There is a term that’s become popular lately “stop exercising, start training” CrossFit gyms have been “training” athletes from day 1.
There’s a lot more to results than just exercising or sweating for an hour. We deliver results through our comprehensive classes that include specific warm-ups, dedicated strength work, and high-intensity conditioning. Training with us it time effective, cost-effective and delivers total fitness.
What moment in your career do you look back most fondly on?
Since we opened up, we’ve helped about 20,000 people. Humbling that so many people have been willing to give us a shot.
