Disaffiliation from CrossFit

We will not side with silence nor ignorance.

In light of the latest comments by CrossFit HQ’s founder, Greg Glassman, we at R3VIVE Fitness have decided to terminate our affiliation with CrossFit. We are disgusted and appalled by his comments and the lack of action taken by CrossFit, as well as their distasteful, mixed messages on social media.

Since opening our doors last year, we’ve always stood tall on upholding our core values and the diversity of our community, members and staff. We, as a collective do not side with the eerily loud silence that CrossFit has shown over the movement of unity and protests for black lives, inequalities in our society, and the injustices recently exposed. We will take a stand with the following actions:

    1. We will be sending CrossFit HQ a letter to end our affiliation as quickly as possible. Moving forward, we will be known as R3VIVE Fitness, something we’ve considered for some time now.
    2. We will permanently remove CrossFit Dudley social media accounts in place of our R3VIVE Fitness accounts. Our private Facebook page will remain, but only as R3VIVE – Members.
    3. We will be announcing plans for raising funds to contribute towards the “Violence in Boston” organization. More information can be found here.

As for our members and future members, nothing will change. We will continue to operate business as usual, as we will continue to host classes during this reopening period in Massachusetts.

We thank you all for your continued support through these trying times and will continue to stand for what’s right!

In solidarity,
R3 Collective

Persist Training Cycle.

By Derek Saffold • September 22, 2025
Hey R3VIVE Athletes, Our next programming cycle runs from September 15th to November 7th. It's an 8-week cycle that will continue to see strength progression carrying from what we did last cycle in Functional fitness. While Pump will begin working unilateral strength progressions. Functional Fitness: This cycle will continue our progression from the skill and lifts from last cycle, while trying to integrate them into more of our conditioning. We will do this by focusing on different portions of the lifts during our strength portion then performing smaller sets of gymnastic skills in our conditioning. You will also see conditioning that is purely focused on our aerobic capacity and working mainly on monostructural elements, such as running, rowing and biking. Build: This A-B week cycle is designed to build foundational strength through consistent progression, with a strong focus on Back Squats and Strict Presses, including variations for balanced weekly training. Conditioning will have some longer aerobic pieces and begin to include more skills like strict Toes-to-Bar, and Pull-ups from last cycle. See the chart below for details.

Our next programming cycle runs from July 12th to September 12th. It's an 8-week cycle, so it's a bit shorter than the last one. We'll be bringing back some Olympic lifts and continuing with the A-B week progressions. The post Functional Fitness Training Block: Resurgence Cycle appeared first on R3VIVE FITNESS.
