💥 JUNE RECAP: A MONTH OF GAINS, GRIT & GOOD VIBES

Summer is heating up—and so are things at the gym. June brought the kind of energy we live for: hard-earned PRs, new faces, weekend competitions, and plenty of community time outside the four walls. If you’ve been grinding through workouts, showing up for your squad, or even just dipping your toes into the CrossFit life for the first time—this one’s for you.

Here’s a look at everything we accomplished together this month.
