CrossFit PFB

Lyndi was my first CrossFit coach, back when CF PFB was a garage box in Yelm, WA. She started me off so well that I was able to step right into a bigger box when she and co-​owner/​husband, Ben, moved to Oregon. Due to the driving distance being «only» 2.5 hours, I went to their current box once for a memorial WOD, in August, 2013.
The facility is spacious and the equipment new. The layout is well-​planned and efficient. There is only one restroom, but I never saw anyone waiting in line ;) They have a challenging 800m run course that goes uphill!
Coaching is fantastic. I didn’t work out under Ben too much back in their garage box, but he provided me with the support and positive critiques on my visit here, that I expect from CrossFit coaching. He’s very motivational and yet cognizant of physical limitations (I have a bad shoulder). Lyndi is still as great a coach as always, too. She has a way of inspiring more effort, just when I think I can’t do any more. After giving me the basics, she has continued to applaud my progress on Facebook — a friend as well as a coach. :)
Community — as I said, I was only here once for a memorial WOD, but I met several people who were friendly and encouraging, cheering for each other (and me). I would imagine they are like that with their fellow athletes on a regular basis.
I wish I had been able to go WOD with Lyndi and Ben more, but will always be thankful for their introduction to CrossFit that set me on a lifelong path of functional fitness.
If you have never tried CrossFit, don’t short yourself — go do it! Someone might look at me, a 58-​year-​old woman with a bad shoulder, and not think it advisable to do such extreme workouts. The key is in the coaching! The key is in how CrossFit can be scaled to give the best results for each individual, no matter your fitness level, age, or physical limitations. At CrossFit PFB, you will get healthier and do things you never imagined you could do.

I have been attending this CrossFit gym for a month and have had an amazing experience. The coaches Ben and Lyndi are amazing, friendly, and provide excellent one on one training. I feel fully supported at every WOD I come to. I have had plenty of experience wasting time at a typical gym, buying at home fitness videos, CrossFit doesn’t compare. It is on a whole different level. If you feel like working hard, having amazing results, and being surrounded by people who are friendly and supportive I recommend you check out CrossFit PFB!

Ive been going here a week now and I love it. Ben is an awesome instructor. I feel very comfortable and encouraged coming here and I never feel rushed. I am a good 50+ pounds overweight so going to the gym has never been pleasant, I am a little self conscious. I get a great workout every time I go here and I enjoy it a lot. The new box is awesome and very spacious:)
