Have a Fit

CrossFit Philly

Reasons 24, 43, and 73 why gyms are the devil’s spawn: elliptical trainers, the sweat of strangers, that damned Kanye West song.

And yet we keep going back for more.

But lo! A glimmer of salvation: CrossFit Philly, the small but mighty fitness center that’ll whip you into shape with a fitness philosophy that just might change the way you think about exercise.

Owners Jason Brown and Pamela MacElree will work with you to create a Workout of the Day that produces maximum results. Ideal for those short on time (sessions can be done in as little as twenty minutes), the workouts blend body weight exercise, speed and agility training, kettle bells, and more.

Quickie conditioning with no boring cardio? Now that sounds heavenly.

CrossFit Philly, 7224 Germantown Avenue, entrance on Nippon Street (215-248-2130 or crossfitphilly.com).
