I've tried CrossFit in the past and loved it. When I moved away, I lost quite a bit of ground with my fitness (not that it was all that great to begin with). So I shopped around and found that PRIDE is very similar, with a focus on Athletic Conditioning. For less of the cost, I feel that I'm getting a "CrossFit" experience. I would recommend signing up for a year to get the best price/month. The class options are varied, which makes getting in your workouts easier. I'm not an avid athlete by any means, so having options to keep me interested is important. My favorite class is kickboxing, because who doesn't like to punch and kick stuff. With any class, I leave drenched and exhausted (like I've done something). If you're looking for a light cardio workout in a new, air-conditioned gym, this isn't it. The gym is equipped with ski and row machines, stationary bikes, kettle bells, hand weights, weight bars, jump ropes, boxing gloves and towels. You can also purchase water if you need it. There is a spot here for the most fit of warriors and the beginner (or alumni looking to get back at it). I also see couples and singles of all ages at this gym. Great little gym in the heart of Plaza Midwood behind Harris Teeter. Check it out!
