I highly recommend the 5 week BroFlex class at South Tampa CrossFit. As a daily CrossFit WOD goer I lost sight of the need for more specialized training on occasion. CrossFit makes us overall fit and ready for anything but with the BroFlex classes I was reminded of the importance of solely training for strength. In a small amount of time, 5 weeks, not only have I gained strength but I also learned several different ways to obtain that strength from CJ and his different weekly methods we followed. That added strength has helped make my CrossFit WODs more efficient and better overall. Our questions on diet, supplements and recovery were all answered as well. Knowledge was free flowing in each class all while having fun and bonding with a great group of guys. I am looking forward to the next time this class is offered and will be first to sign up.

I am wrapping up my first Bro-Flex training program at South Tampa CrossFit. Coach CJ's professionalism and passion for what he does is second to none. He is very knowledgeable, taking the time to explain movements and why it works. He motivates the group to safely push beyond our comfort zones. I have certainly gained some strength as some of the other trainers have noticed as well. We also have great camaraderie within the group as we push each other during sets. For me, this is a great program that compliments the CrossFit training sessions.

As someone who began their fitness journey with bodybuilding type workouts in college with my boys, it's been a fun experience to do it again in a group setting with other like-minded individuals. Over the years I've done different things for exercise (e.g., CrossFit), but have always maintained doing body building at least a few times per week. Even with all the experience I've had over the years, I learned a ton of new movements during my five weeks through Bro Flex and will be adding the concepts I learned to my routines in the future (which I hope to pass on to my sons one day). Also, I found the diet/nutrition plans in the weekly emails a bonus and have really started to keep track of what is going into my body on a daily basis - you can't put regular unleaded in a high performance jet engine.

No matter where you are in your fitness journey, I couldn't recommend Bro Flex enough whether it be for building blocks to meet certain goals, or to add new tools to help take that extra step. In addition to getting stronger and more jacked, the best part of Bro Flex was the camaraderie with all the guys (lots of laughs), meeting new people, and pushing each other in each and every class.

Finally, I'd like to shout out CJ for packing everything he did into the five weeks, taking the time to make us all better, and for fielding all of our questions throughout. We appreciate you!
