Trainer/Co-Owner

Kristy has always been active and played soccer all through her youth.  When Clayton introduced her to CrossFit, she was hooked. Going to the gym running on the treadmill and using the machines to lift weights became boring and mundane. She saw results from doing CrossFit and wanted to share this experience with others by becoming a trainer. Since starting CrossFit she is in the best shape of her life and wants to share the benefits with who ever will give her the time and put in the effort. “LOOK GOOD NAKED”

Trainer/ Co-Owner

Hi! My name is Benjamin Knodell. I am a flat roofer for Peak View Roofing here in Colorado Springs. Sports and recreational activities have always been such an enjoyable part of my life. I began doing Crossfit in July of 2011. Crossfit has now become a huge part of my life. I am proof of the incredible benefits from Crossfit and functional movement training and I would love to help make it apart of your life. I was in the US Army Cavalry for 4 years and deployments had a huge effect on my body with everything from shoulder injuries to my feet and ankles. I began doing Crossfit and in months saw incredible changes to these injuries. Now I have almost no issues at all with any of them. I want to help you reach your goals in life and i believe Crossfit can get you there. Crossfit and functional movement training changed the way I viewed life forever and I would love to help you change yours.
