We are so pleased the doors are opening up fully in 24 hours!

We now have the Biggest news we will ever announce as we approach our last day as the owners of CrossFit Geelong.

It's time for Corrine & I to take a step back and begin the next chapter of our lives.

We could not be prouder of CrossFit Geelong and the success it has brought to our lives and the people who have walked through our doors since we started in our Newtown location in 2011 (Prior to this 2001 in South Geelong and then 2004 in Malop St!)

I met Corrine in 2005 in my gym in Malop St which together we grew our business called Physical Revolution and then ran Bootcamp Geelong which was Australias largest outdoor bootcamp. We did this until 2011 (10 years ago) when we moved into Newtown where we are now and started our dream operation CrossFit Geelong after affiliating in 2008.

This has been our entire lives for as long as we have known. We have been able to meet and befriend more people than most couples ever get to encounter and 99% of our journey has been filled with tremendous blessings and complete success and fulfilment. This is also where I met my wife Corrine.

We have decided that it is the right time to step back from gym ownership.

So.... we have sold up and passed on the role to 3 extremely vibrant young people who are incredibly passionate people. People who we have a deep trust with and know they will carry our name on.

Corrine will still be involved in a handover and will assist with some management support while I finish up some work I have been doing outside the gym. You will also see Corrine continuing on as a coach during the week which she is loving doing now.

Corrine and I remain as committed as ever to CrossFit and nothing has changed in regards to our love and belief in the method. However, as the last year has shown, my new role outside the gym has increasingly taken me away from my responsibilities to the gym.

Corrine has done a phenomenal job managing the entire team in my absence since we re-opened (I don't quite know how she has done it) and is now looking forward to stepping back from being a business owner and member of the community at CFG.

We were certain we wouldn't take a step back unless we found someone who is honest, loyal and has pure integrity to take on this role and there she was right under our nose. CFG has been our baby, our kids have grown up in there with us and we will only hand it over to someone that loves it as much as we do, who will protect the ethos and culture, and has the necessary skills to run the business as it continues to grow.

We are very pleased to announce that our amazing coach Richelle Cranston (Rocky!) & her partner Bec Pearce will take over as the new owners of CrossFit Geelong. Bec's brother Jesse James Pearce is also a CrossFit Coach and is coming onboard also as a coach.

They all share our passion and they are exactly the kind of people who will carry on our established brand with pride. Most of you know Rocky well and being an AFLW player she will take it to heights we haven't seen before with her connections, savvy skills & hunger for success!

For them it will be “business as usual” and there are no immediate changes to the way the gym operates and thankfully all the staff are staying with some minor changes only in hours and roles.

Corrine and I will also be there in a support role as they find their feet, and we look forward to training in the classes and enjoying it from another view with the upmost respect that they are the new owners. We have an incredible team and we simply cannot express our gratitude towards Selina, Chrissy, Angie, Rocky, Jackson, Robyn & Justin, we have formed incredible relationships with all of them and their support in our decision to begin the next chapter in our lives is beyond remarkable. We love you guys like our family.

Our whole life has revolved around the gym since 2001, We started and grew Bootcamp Geelong to one of the largest in Australia and our passion for CrossFit led us to finally affiliate in 2008 growing our box to one of the most successful.

We were never ones to go with the norm and were prepared to put in the hard yards, we can honestly say this changed the fitness landscape in Geelong over the past 15 years, so now as a couple we are very much looking forward to a different landscape for our family which will involve a much more private and less public life which we cannot wait to begin.

From the bottom of our hearts, please welcome Rocky & Bec with open arms and help them settle in, as we will be. We know this is a big announcement and that change brings out some emotions in us, but please embrace this and be excited for us and for them instead of worried or concerned. The gym will continue to operate as usual, but some fabulous changes will come as they find their feet and we know it is going to THRIVE under the new management.

To all the people who have walked through our doors and enjoyed or taken something from what you gained here, we thank you from our hearts. To all the friends we have made = we adore you and thank you for organically promoting us as your friends and our business, we are thankful for every single referral and member we have ever received. To our entire extended family who never stopped believing in us regardless of what life threw at us over the years= we love you.

When you open up something and you build it from scratch with complete integrity, years later (as we are now) there is something really beautiful about knowing that you only ever built up your business yourself. Geelong didn't have many gyms and everyone thought we were crazy setting up this "thing called CrossFit" but like everything we have put our hearts into, when you believe in it, the people will come!

It is something that many don't experience and it is the most wonderful feeling knowing that you contributed to the community in such an enormous way. Small Business provides experiences, it provides community connection, it mends mental health issues in regard to people feeling part of something, it provides other businesses with business due to the connections that are made in-house, it also provides staff with opportunities to grow their skills so they too can move forward and have their own small business one day or grow themselves as employees.

We love looking back at the extended tree and seeing how much has blossomed from 1 place. Nothing brings us more joy than when we receive a card years later from a member who thanks us for introducing them to their (now) partner or for changing their life in regards to their health. This is what we opened up this business for.

The focus of health, preventative health, overall wellness and mindset will continue to remain the foundations of CrossFit Geelong's Belief system. Not many people can say that for the most part of their entire adult lives they have loved their job this long! Corrine & I will never work in a role which isn't true to us and this is something which we will continue in our next chapter of our married life together. We feel so pleased that we haven't wasted our years in something we disliked, we have the utmost job satisfaction and love for our work and we know that the experience we have will carry us through as our kids grow up and become adults also one day.

To the new proud amazing owners & wonderful human beings, stay true to yourself, do what is in your heart and you will attract the people who believe in the same way of living as you. Only give what you can afford to give and hold strong in your decisions, as the challenges will make you stronger and cherish the people you meet who will trust you for years beyond business ownership. Enjoy having that incredible team work alongside you and know they have your back and want to see you succeed as we do. We will step aside and continue enjoying CFG as participants and the best part is we still get to see the members each day in training.

Thankyou for every single person who has embraced us as the owners and for all the support we have also been given throughout your time as a member. We will thankyou individually as we see you in the box and many of you who know more about us on a personal level will know how genuine our words are for all of this.
Love Chris & Corrine — with Corrine Chalmers Chris Chalmers
