Test You Limits. Then Break Them!

We invite you to take on the 7 week Championship Challenge.

The Lurong Living Championship Challenge was created to accomplish 3 main goals.

First, it is a service to our members to provide a platform to track nutrition, set goals, and be accountable for working out regularly. The Challenge also lets our coaches at CFM focus on doing what we do best: coaching, inspiring, and encouraging our members to reach the next level.

Second, the Challenge offers the opportunity for CrossFitters to compete on the same playing field, no matter their skill level, athletic prowess, or experience. The weighted scoring system balances 3 primary categories: diet, performance, and improvement. You can be confident that all members of our gym will be challenged and be pushed to reach new levels.

The third reason we are participating in the Lurong Living Championship Challenge is to unify our community. Not only can all levels of athletes compete together but our gym will be competing against other gyms from across the country. At the same time, you will know that your brothers and sisters are going through the same challenge and lifestyle changes as you.

We are all in this together, and the Challenge and online platform was methodically designed to help us see real, sustainable change in our body, health, and performance.
