We went to the morning sessions and everyone we met was super cool. Ability levels ranged from newbies to full-on CrossFit rock star, all working out together, and all motivating each other in typical CrossFit fashion. Meanwhile, Matt circulated around and, several times, told me exactly what I needed at exactly the right moment. He did this for everyone. I was very impressed. During skill work, he helped me noticeably improve my muscle-up in a way that made it MUCH easier to hit.
Love this place. Great coach, great people!
Wife and I were in town for a week and contacted three Clarksville-area CrossFit locations by e-mail the week before we arrived. Matt was the most personal and responsive, so we chose his gym and I am glad we did. We come from a well-established affiliate (est. 2004) with tons of great coaches, and I wish Matt was one of ours. Dunbar Cave Lab (DCL) is small, but Matt is very attentive and he has what it takes... the ability to teach, to see, to correct.
I didn't try CrossFit for a really long time because it has such a bad reputation, but needed something new, so I caved. After a few months at a different local box, I realized that more than anything, it's the coaching that makes or breaks CrossFit and that it can be awesome when done right, so when my favorite coach opened his own gym, I knew I had to join. After four months at DCL, I've made heaps of progress with my personal fitness goals. My mile time is the best its ever been, I have these weird things on my body...muscles?! Strange! (No, not the beefcake scary woman muscles, but nice, defined arms and legs and I'm starting to notice nice lines on my stomach too! I'm excited!!) I'm able to push myself through workouts that I wouldn't have completed before, AND, I can finally pick up my squirmy, big dog and put him in the tub ALL. BY. MYSELF. If that's not enough, I also feel really great, have lower stress and have awesome energy all day after a tough morning workout.
Seriously, if you are considering trying CrossFit for the first time, or if you are an established CrossFitter looking for place in Clarksville to meet good people and get good coaching, give DCL a shot.
And, for those of you who think CrossFit is a cult, it probably is at some gyms, but I don't drink the Kool-Aid and I still have a great time here. And, it should be noted that I've never had an injury from workouts, other than bruises from me being clumsy and rolling barbells into my shins or inadvertently whipping myself with a jump rope...but that doesn't count. The community at this gym is fantastic and I've met some wonderful, down to earth, people who will be lifelong friends. Thanks, Coach Matt and everyone at DCL, for being amazing, encouraging and for pushing me every day!
All the people are motivated and friendly. Great workouts
Visiting from the west coast, and I was very impressed by the fantastic atmosphere. Matt has created a very good community.
