Success Story
Jon W. Potomac CrossFit Nothern Virginia
CrossFit Impact in Glenview/Chicago, IL is a great gym that I go to without fail whenever I’m in Chicago. Starting with the coaches, and continuing with the members and the gym itself, CrossFit Impact is fantastic and sure to help you make the most of your workout. I first visited CrossFit Impact over several days in November 2010 soon after it opened and then recently again in November 2011. My positive experience started as soon as I walked in the door when the coaches took the time to introduce/re-introduce themselves to me, ask about my experience and comfort in the gym, and then introduce me to all the other members in attendance...

Gym Rules
CFI GYM RULES
1. Arrive early and stay late. Cheer, clap, and encourage others. Anything less is to cheat yourself of the experience, and to rob others of the gift of your presence and support as part of the community. Besides, if you're late, it's 5 burpees per minute.
2. If you forget to sign in, it's 30 burpees. And regarding any burpee incentives... you may cry and whine all you want, as long as we can hear you counting.
3. Accidents and injuries happen and usually come as a result of impatience. Don't be greedy. Slow down. Ask questions. Ask for help. Check your ego at the door.
4. EMPTY barbells were not designed to be dropped (neither were dumbbells or kettlebells). We don't want our toys, our rubber flooring, you, or someone else broken unnecessarily.
5. Chalk is useful, even necessary. It is also messy. Use as much as you need, but keep the excess inside the chalk bucket because all the extra dust keeps breaking our vacuum cleaner!
6. Clean up and put away all equipment after each workout. Clean up sweat, spit, blood, chalk, dirt, vomit, handprints, and whatever else you've left behind.
7. Grunting, screaming, cussing and otherwise making noise are all welcome and encouraged during a workout. There is such a thing as gentle, quiet strength, although most of us haven't mastered that yet. Also remember that there can be such a thing as too loud, crass, gross, or rude - please be respectful

Sign Up for the 2012 CrossFit Games Open
Feb 06 - Feb 22, 2012

The registration for the 2012 CrossFit Games Open has officially opened. We want to see ALL of our members sign up, whether you come 2 times per week or 6. We want everyone participating in this year's CrossFit Games Open. It is a fun way for the gym to come together each week as a team. Believe me none of us are professional athletes even though some might think so. We had such a blast year with the 15 athletes that participated. We want all of the CFI athletes to have the same experience.
