History and Philosophy
Drs. Robert and Samantha Gump recognized a glaring need in the Smith Mountain Lake region and decided that it was time for the community to have access to CrossFit. Established in 2022, CrossFit SML is the area's newest CrossFit affiliate.
​
We believe that everyone is capable of doing CrossFit. We also believe in the original founding principles of CrossFit. You can learn more about those at www.crossfit.com. Some may even say we are a little ''old school'' or ''OG'' at CrossFit SML. Success requires doing what's right, all the time. We recognize that everyone is on their own journey along the road from sickness, to wellness, to fitness. Wherever you are on that journey we know you can benefit and you will have a place here.
​
You must be willing to show up consistently, give your best effort, and trust the process. Your coaches and friends at CrossFit SML will guide you through the rest!
