There are other group classes available too; Powerlifting, Olympic Weightlifting, Gymnastics, Endurance, Mobility (stretching, rolling, etc), and Sport (for the competitive CrossFitters). The membership for this gym allows me to go to whichever classes I want to. Next week I start Powerlifting three days a week, and then I will be doing the CrossFit class followed by Mobility two days a week. I'm going to do the full Powerlifting phase (3 months) and then I will probably go back to just doing CrossFit.

I'm getting stronger. I can bench 90 lbs, deadlift 185 lbs, and back squat 155 lbs. It's very self-satisfying to see the numbers slowly climb higher.

Dang Mindy those are great lifts for someone who is fairly new to power lifting/those lifts. Sounds like a pretty cool gym.
