At CrossFit Murphy, we have one simple core value: Members First.

Everything we do is for our members, because they’re what truly matters. A gym like this doesn’t exist without the people who walk through the doors every day.

You can work out anywhere. But there’s no place like this place.

And that’s because of the people who make it what it is.

Your health doesn’t usually demand your attention all at once.

It asks quietly.

Move your body.
Eat a little better.
Get some sleep.
Build strength.
Take care of yourself.

And it’s easy to keep saying, “I’ll get to it when life slows down.”

But life rarely slows down.

The time you choose to invest in your health today is time you’re far more in control of. If you continually put it off, there may come a day when your health starts making those decisions for you.

You don’t need hours in the gym. You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to consistently make your health a priority.

Make time for your health while the time is still yours to choose.

CrossFit Murphy
Stronger. Healthier. More capable. For life.

NOT GETTING BETTER AT CROSSFIT?

You might be spending too much time in the wrong bucket.

Most people spend their training time in the wrong order. They spend too much time competing, some time training, and almost no time practicing.

They chase the person beside them, select weights based on the leaderboard, rush through skill work, and treat every daily workout like it is the CrossFit Games.

Then they wonder why their technique, strength, and fitness stop improving.

You cannot test your way into better fitness. You must build it first.

PRACTICE — 20%

Practice develops the skill.

This is where you slow down, learn positions, improve technique, and work on movements you have not yet mastered. The clock does not matter. If your technique breaks down, you stop, adjust, and try again.

TRAINING — 75%

Training builds your capacity.

This is where most of your time should be spent. You work hard, challenge your strength and conditioning, and learn to maintain quality movement while tired.

Training means choosing the right weight, movement, and pace to achieve the intended purpose of the workout—not simply chasing the fastest score.

COMPETING — 5%

Competition tests what you have built.

This includes the CrossFit Open, local competitions, benchmark workouts, and planned testing days. This is when you take calculated risks and attempt to produce your best possible performance.

The competing bucket matters—but it should be the smallest bucket.

If you compete every day, you never give yourself enough time to practice your weaknesses or build your capacity. Eventually, your progress slows because you are constantly testing the same fitness instead of developing new fitness.

Practice develops it.

Training builds it.

Competition reveals it.

If you are not getting better, ask yourself:

“Am I spending too much time in the wrong bucket?”

CrossFit Murphy is proud to announce this week’s Member Spotlight: Emily!

If you’ve been to just about any class at CrossFit Murphy, chances are you’ve worked out alongside Emily. She’s one of those rare members who doesn’t really have a “usual” class time—6:00 AM, 8:15, noon, afternoon… you never know where she’s going to show up!

Emily is the definition of put your head down and do the work. She shows up with a great attitude, listens to her coaches, works hard, and never complains. No excuses. No need for attention. Just consistent effort day after day.

And that consistency is paying off. We’ve watched Emily continue to get stronger, fitter, more confident, and more capable, and we couldn’t be prouder of the progress she’s making.

Emily, thank you for being such a great part of the CrossFit Murphy community. Keep showing up, keep doing the work, and keep being you. We’re proud of you!
