Progress happens when you repeat patterns, build skill, and add load with intent.

The biggest win 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗮 𝗣𝗥.

It’s the moment you stop saying "𝘐’𝘮 𝘵𝘳𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨" and start saying "𝗜 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻."

That 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁 is what makes results stick.

If you want a gym that helps you build that kind of momentum, 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗹𝗹 𝗳𝗶𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲.

The best part of Fringe 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁.

It’s walking into a room where people know your name, notice when you’re gone, and celebrate when you win.

If you’ve been trying to do this alone, that’s not a character flaw. It’s just a hard way to live.

CrossFit is 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲. That’s not a buzzword. 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁.

Scalable means:
- The workout stays the same.
- The load, reps, and movement options change to match your body and skill.

That’s how a brand-new athlete and a veteran can train in the same class and 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱.

𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 between Fringe and every “big box” option in Columbia.

Allen noticed it immediately.

Clear instruction.
Real attention to form.
Safety, progress, and confidence built into every class.

When people feel supported, they stay consistent — and consistency is where every real transformation begins.

“𝗖𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗙𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁.”

We’ve all heard it. But here’s the truth:

We’re not fighting for aesthetics or quick fixes. We fight disease. Weakness. Decrepitude. Dependence.
We’re choosing longevity. Community. Strength. We’re building lives without limits — the kind you can carry into your 70s, 80s, 90s.

CrossFit isn’t always easy to explain from the outside.
But anyone who walks through the door feels it immediately — the support, the effort, the community, the change.

If that’s a cult, count us in.

Why does Fringe exist? 𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲: Columbia deserves a place where people feel better walking out than when they walked in.

Our mission has always been the same: 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲, 𝗘𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻, 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗲.

Education builds 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲.
Entertainment builds 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.
Inspiration builds 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳.

This is more than workouts. It’s a third space. A community. A structure for people who want to live better, not just sweat more.

Here’s the truth: most people aren’t bad at fitness. They’re just training without feedback.

𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗿.

You can train alone, but you’ll miss flaws you don’t know exist—movement patterns, pacing issues, loading choices, technical details that unlock progress.

At Fringe, our coaches don’t just cheer. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝘀.

If you feel stuck, the fix usually isn’t more work. It’s better guidance.
