Why are we better?

Almost every time I meet with a possible new client, one of their first questions is "Why you?" "Why should I choose you over 24 Hour Fitness/LA Fitness/other gyms?"

So I figured it was time to address this - Here's just ONE REASON we're better:

Let's compare cost, since we're quite a bit more expensive. Let's say you spend $50/mo. at LA Fitness. How many times did you go last year? Twice a month? That's what I thought. How much weight did you lose? None? That's what I thought. So you just spent $600 a year for a gym membership you barely used, and you didn't see any results from it.
Compare that to Cosmic CrossFit. You pay us $125-150 per month, yes that's quite a bit more. But what do you get? You show up 3 or more times per week (I'll personally be calling you if you don't). How much weight did you lose? 15-30lbs? That's great! How much stronger did you get? How much more energy do you have? That's awesome! You paid us $1,500+ for the year but you wouldn't want a single penny back! You love the results, the way you feel, and the community you get to be a part of!

So you'll be paying a little over twice as much for a gym membership. But let's fast forward 30 years and take a look at medical bills. A CrossFitter (or any other comparably fit person) will have a much lower healthy risk. They'll be less likely to have a heart attack, stroke, broken bones, and many other illnesses that cause the elderly to go into the Care Homes. Who's concerned about cost now?!?

Spend a little more money now, and save millions in medical bills later.

And have a better standard of living now. Let's face it....CrossFitters are invincible!!
