Our very own Coach Kristen took on the Frisco 50K today and, to translate that to miles, she ran 31 miles in 6 hour and 47 minutes.

When we reacquired Coach Kristen for the coaching staff, we were very excited for a multitude of reasons but one of the most prominent was the level of competitive experience she has in endurance sports and events which are gaining a ton of traction right now in the U.S. We decided that a professionally active endurance athlete would be a better investment than affiliating to something without having a subject matter expert on site.

Coach Kristen told us that all of the strength training that she does at CFR has helped her running season immensely. She attested to already having better endurance this year than previous years where all she did was run.

Coach Kristen also said that the hardest moment for her on the course was when she had a pinched nerve in her shoulder and couldn’t swing her arm without shooting pain for about 6 miles. She powered through it and once it let up she started running again. She was on track for a sub 6 hr race until that happened.

What an incredible display of mental and physical toughness by a leader in our community. She strives to show others that you have to push past the discomfort to accomplish big things in life.

Congrats on the major accomplishment, Coach.

Excited to see what your next challenge is going to be.

BRING A FRIEND – FREE SATURDAY!

If you’ve been watching from a distance, this is the one to come try.

Tomorrow's workout is what we call a "benchmark" workout which is just one of the many ways we utilize measurable feedback to assess our fitness. Here's the workout:

“Double Helen”

3 Rounds:
800m Run
42 Kettlebell Swings
24 Pull-Ups

Now read this part carefully because we know what you're thinking.

No one new walks in and does that as written.

We adjust everything:

▶ Run gets shortened or swapped for a machine
▶ Kettlebell is modified to a lighter weight or reduced range of motion
▶ Pull-ups become ring rows, bands, or a version you can actually do while targeting the same muscle groups

We're not inviting you in to get your butt kicked or to prove anything to us.

We provide this standing offer so that we can show you what it's liked to genuinely be coached and lead through something that you didn’t think you could do.

That’s the difference here and we're doing it every day, in every class, for every member.

Most gyms give you access to their equipment. You're just renting time, space, and a piece of equipment that may or may not be taken when you get there forcing you to change your plan... if you even walked in with a plan to begin with.
We give you direction, attention, guaranteed equipment and space, and people who actually care if you show up.

Saturdays are free because the heaviest part of any gym for a new person is the front door.

🕗 8AM & 9AM
📍 CrossFit Republic

If you’ve been thinking about it, stop waiting until you feel “ready.”

You won’t.

Come see it for yourself.

Most people don’t think about strength and conditioning until they’re forced to.

Our Masters athletes don't wait for that moment.

Built, led, and continuously refined by Coach Melissa, this started as a 3-person class. It’s now 15+ athletes who show up consistently, train with intentionality, and have become a real part of the fabric of CrossFit Republic.

Today, one of them turned 75 and still attends regularly.

That’s not luck or good genetics. That’s the power of direction from a coach and follow through from an athlete.

This program is designed to:

👉 Build and maintain lean muscle
👉 Improve stability and coordination
👉 Develop usable stamina for real life

It runs Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7AM.

No guesswork and no wandering around. These athletes and the coach do not waste any time.

You'll experience structured training that meets you where you are and expects you to move forward.

We offer your first two sessions free. Not as a gimmick but as a standard. You should know exactly what you’re stepping into before you commit.

At some point, everyone is forced to deal with their fitness.

The question is whether you handle it now, on your terms, or later, when you don’t have a choice.

If your weights are collecting dust, or you’re holding onto a membership you don’t use, that’s not a motivation problem. That’s a system problem.

We’ve built ours to be used.

Now decide if you’re ready to use it.

☕️ CrossFit Over Coffee Sponsored by (Murph Edition) ☕️

We are so excited for our community Murph at CFR this year. The reflection, the camaraderie, and of course, the opportunity to show the world how fit you are and how this workout is all about the work YOU’VE put in.

We will see you on May 25th at 7:30 and 9:00 AM. Bring a friend (or an enemy).

Get after it.

(Disclaimer for fragile people whose first time on the internet was today: All content in this video is for satirical purposes only and was written by a Marine Corps Veteran.)

Summer shows up fast!

Lake days, cookouts, graduations, late nights that turn into early mornings.

It’s all good until you realize your energy, your habits, and your body weren’t ready for it.

We’ve spent a lot of time refining what we do at CrossFit Republic.

Yes, we coach CrossFit and we care about movement and training.

But this is bigger than hard workouts that leave you drenched in sweat to us.

We are about building a lifestyle you can actually hold onto when life gets full.

Here’s how to start:

👉 Step 1 — No Sweat Intro

We sit down in person or on the phone, talk through where you’re at, and what you're looking to change. No pressure. Just clarity.

👉 Step 2 — Learn to Launch (First Week Free)

Three sessions. Small group. We meet you where you are and build from the ground up.

👉 Step 3 — Move Forward With a Plan

You step into regular classes with structure. You get a goals consult and a clear path so you’re not guessing your way through any of this.

Next session runs:

📅 May 5 – May 15

We keep it capped at 6 people so the coaching stays personal and effective.

If you’ve been thinking about making a change, this is a clean place to start.

Send us a message and we’ll get your intro booked.

04/22/2026

Try this one! Originally intended as a team workout where teams of 2 split everything except for the run, a few of our athletes took this head on as individuals and the results were solid.

As Many Rounds and Reps as Possible in 20 Minutes of:

400 Meter Run
100’ Sandbag Bearhug Carry (150/100)
20 Burpees Over the Sandbag

Modify run with 500/400 meter row or ski or 30/24 Calorie Bike

Reduce sandbag weight as needed or drop down to a plate.

Regular burpees or step over the bag if unable to jump over bag.
rice5 opted for his very own 200lbs bag which rents free space at CFR.

For People Who Want More.

This is what a healthy gym looks like.

People with full lives… but still making time to train.

Not because they have to but because they’ve decided it matters.

That’s the difference.

If you’ve been thinking about starting, this is your window.

We’re running a 12-week membership special right now.

Long enough to see what happens when you actually stay consistent.

Short enough to stop overthinking it.

We don't need to convince you.

You'll convince yourself once you start or better yet, get back into it if you've been on hiatus.

People will see an exercise like wall ball shots and think "legs and lungs.”

That’s not wrong but it's incomplete.

To get to the bottom of a front loaded squat without compensation, you need:

1. Shoulders that can stay active and support the load in a strong front position
2. Thoracic spine that can extend so your chest doesn’t dump forward
3. Hips that can flex and externally rotate without collapsing inward
4. Ankles that can dorsiflex so your heels stay grounded

If one of those is missing, something else pays for it.

Knees cave, heels come up, chest drops, lower back takes over.

And then we shift from a workout problem to a movement problem.

This is a big part of what coaches on our floor are assessing and correcting or adjusting throughout a class.

We don’t just tell you to “go lower” or “try harder.” We show you where you’re limited and, more importantly, why.

Then we go to work:

👉 Targeted mobility where you actually need it
👉 Smart modification that helps you move safely within your range of motion
👉 Positional awareness so you can own better movement
👉 Individualized “homework” so progress doesn’t stop when you leave the gym

That’s coaching. That's a CrossFit membership premium.

So yeah, you can compare our prices to the globo gym down the road.

Just understand what you’re actually paying for.

Access is cheap.

Guidance isn’t.

Meet Jason Dannettel, our March Athlete of the Month!

Jason isn’t new to CrossFit. He and his wife started CrossFit in its golden age around 2010. After years in the CrossFit world, including owning an affiliate in Arizona, he walked into CFR in 2024 not to start over, but to get back to what he knew worked.

Because like a lot of people, life had caught up. He was heavier than he’d ever been, uncomfortable in his own body, and knew something needed to change.

But Jason’s story goes deeper than that.

Before CrossFit, before ownership, before CFR, there was a time where things weren’t steady. Cycling became more than fitness. It was an outlet. A way to fight through dark days and keep moving forward when stopping wasn’t an option.

That perspective still shows up in how he trains today.

Yes, he’s leaned out and moves better and has more energy.

But what matters most and in his own words: “The demons are too tired to push me back there.”

Jason represents what this is really about. Not just workouts and not just results. But using training as a way to take control physically, mentally, and personally of your life.

If you’ve ever had someone look you in the eye and say, “Can you do it?”—and then follow it with “Then do it.” ....You’ve experienced exactly what he brings to this community.
Courage and strength to borrow.

Curious about his journey, his advice, and what keeps him showing up?

This Is Part Of It

Life will put you on your knees and leave you with your head hanging low.

Tired. Frustrated. Wondering how you got there and how you’re getting out.

That’s not a rare moment. That’s THE moment.

(Before we continue, we'd like to preface this by saying that we're well aware that burpees and pull-ups don’t pay your bills...so stick with us here.)

But what goes through your head 7 minutes into a 15-minute workout… that matters.

That point where you’re staring at the clock, hoping time bails you out....knowing it won’t.

You catch your breath, you slow down, you start feeling sorry for yourself.

Then a coach walks by and asks, “You good?”

You say "yes" or maybe just nod your head. Even if you don’t fully believe it.

And then you get back to work.

That’s the shift.

Because once you move again, you realize something, there was more there the whole time.

That’s what this is about.

Not the reps. Not the score. And certainly not the glory of your physical prowess.

Learning what it feels like to be in it… and not back out.

Look around, everyone says, this is the best time to be alive.

Maybe.

But it doesn’t feel easier. Not for most people.

This is where we build something that holds up anyway.

Resilience.
People around you who expect something out of you.
A standard you don’t walk away from.

Not just to get through it but to handle it.

And come out ahead.

When it comes to "fitness," we're all looking for something that's going to work for us.

Not for a month or until motivation is all but depleted, but something we can actually stay with.

That’s where a lot of group based programs out there fall apart.

They're either too aggressive, too repetitive, built for a narrow type of person, or built to avoid the very things that actually drive progress.

So people bounce from one thing to the next looking to find something that continues to challenge them while keeping them engaged.

CrossFit was built to adjust to the person and not the other way around.

You don’t need experience or to be “in shape” to participate in what's happening within the walls of any CrossFit gym in your area.

You start where you are, and it scales with you.

As you get better, it gets better.

As you get stronger, it asks more of you.

That’s why people don’t just do this for a season. They genuinely stay with it.

Because there’s always somewhere to go.

And yeah, over the years, a lot of things have popped up trying to pull pieces from it.

Strip out the barbell. Avoid intensity. Keep it comfortable.

That’s fine. It just misses the point.

As everyone knows, progress doesn’t come from avoiding things. It comes from doing the full scope of what works and mastering the basics

That’s what we do...and then layer on from there.

We train across everything. Strength. Conditioning. Skill. Endurance. Coordination. Balance. Agility. Consistency over time.

Not for a phase.
..but for life.

If you’re looking for something easy to start and easier to quit, this isn’t it.

If you’re looking for something that actually holds up...

You’re in the right place.

What makes CrossFit Republic different?

At CrossFit Republic, our intention is to give you the best hour (or more) of your day. Fitness and community is just our means of doing that. Our goal is to provide a safe, energetic, and stress free environment for you to get a workout in and hang with some buddies. In the process, if you commit to our program, you will take your health, wellness AND your fitness to levels it has never been before, where working out has never been more refreshing.

When it comes to our strength and conditioning program, our goal isn’t to beat you into the ground. We believe recovery is just as important as the work you put in. To that end, we don’t lift weights every day, and we don’t do intense workouts every day. We have found that balance is the key, and our members are healthier AND more fit because of it.

If you are curious, give us a shot and you will quickly see that we do things much differently than your typical gym. Stop by today and see why Southwest Missouri and all of the Springfield area is talking about CrossFit Republic!
