Serafin, JR, Alicia, Becky, Nate, and Benson. They are just a few of the One World peeps using the One World facility to their advantage. This crew always hangs out after the 6:45 session and trains extra on their own. You pay One World some decent change to provide you not only with great training sessions, but also with a top notch facility that you can use at your disposal. As long as you are not interfering with a group session, you are ENCOURAGED to come into the gym and get your fit on any way you'd like.
Over the last 5 years, I have visited a TON of CrossFit gyms. Not everyone rolls like we do at One World. Imagine a CrossFit gym where:
- You can only come to a certain class on a certain date and do exactly what you are told to do.
- You do your own warm up, then the music is turned on full tilt and you do the workout, never getting coached.
- You are not allowed to do anything other than the group session. No open gym format.
- The owners refer to their gym in how much money they made for the month. Me: How is your gym doing? Them: Last month we hit 30k! Me: 3000 members? Them: $30,000 in membership!!!
- Your gym charges people to workout who are visiting from another CrossFit gym. Seriously?!?!? Just from talking to people who visit One World from other gyms, we learn so much on how to improve One World. We should be paying people who visit!!! (But we won't pay you and we encourage you to buy a t-shirt...haha!)
One World offers you a very unique experience. We have a fully equipped CrossFit gym, and we expect our members to use it any way they want to improve their fitness. If you want to follow CrossFit Football programming, CrossFit.com programming, SealFit programming, or CrossFitWillKillYouExtremeTrainingOnlyForTheHarcore.com programming, then so be it!
Of course, don't get me wrong... If you don't know what the fuck you are doing, stick to the One World programming and learn how to move from a bunch of people who love to coach and make sure you learn how to move proper. If you've been hanging around for awhile and want to play with some different programming, it's your gym!

Superb presentation in a matching wrapping. The websites for sale this article is probably not concerned with at all are viable alternatives to rocket fuel. The buying websites process is oftentimes not at all free of hassle and disappointment.

I wish one of the five or six CF gyms in Santa Cruz had your attitude towards clients. I pay great money to have access to the right equipment, I should be able to do my own programming if I'm being safe and respectful towards the class in session. Wish I lived closer to your gym!

That's why you're the coolest! I work out in my garage but I might be moving to a highrise beach condo with no garage. I have been checking out crossfit gyms in that area and none appear to have open gym access. That just sucks and no way am I giving up my hard earned money for no open gym. I wish there was a One World in Long Beach.

I know of a place where if your payment doesn't go through, they'll call you out on it in front of everybody. Well, I don't think it's their policy but it happened.

Great Post Freddy. I meet a former member or current member of yours who came to Iowa and visited us a CrossFit 515 she stated your gym was awesome to workout at. I recently moved to Idaho and opened up my own box and even though we are growing slow we are growing with the right purpose and direction. We are for our members period and if we make something after that awesome. Thanks for this post.

Knowing crossfitters, I actually believed CrossFitWillKillYouExtremeTrainingOnlyForTheHarcore.com would be a real site. It's not.
