The Power of Team

The Power of TeamBy: WOD Father Published on: 06/06/2025

At CrossFit we do not train with strangers. When we see a new face, we step up and introduce ourselves. If they’re new, we welcome them. We let them know we’re all in this together. Not only do we know their names (at least their CrossFit nickname), we probably know their kids’ names, their spouse’s name and even more likely, the name of their family dog. They may start out as just some nice people you sweat with three times per week but sweat and suffering has a magical way of transforming into lasting friendships and before you know it, they are helping you move or inviting you over for a summer BBQ or bringing soup to your doorstep when you’re under the weather. They go from being your gym friend to your support network. Most of us have found some of our best friends at CrossFit.

It means a lot to me when members tell me how much they appreciate the community we have built at Empower. Thanks to you for helping us build something extra special on Vancouver’s West Side. Thanks for opening your arms to all the people searching for a family and a place they can call their home!

In the old days Music Man and Big Cat battled for the mantle of Empower’s heaviest front squat. It was Big Cat who prevailed with an Empower record of 305lbs (though there are unverified rumours that Dangers has secretly broken that record). Now with Bobo having recently tied the Empower front squat record, it is the perfect time for Big Cat to retire, still officially at the top and undefeated.
