Information about Fit ‘& Rack
«How did you know Fit ‘& Rack?
So we told ourselves «here we will go to get a little partnership with them ”, to advertise them but at the same time to equip us. And suddenly, we asked them for a single rack: only 1 Post Tozzowith 3 traction barsTo go with the color of our small garage that was very fluorescent green. This allowed to give a beautiful image to the GGC: we were known for this green rack on our green wall. And I think this is probably one of the first racks they did ‘and rack at the beginning.
Super fast In the response, in the treatment of E -mail. They quickly find solutions, it is sufficient that there is the minimum thing broken, which does not really happen, but replace it quite easily. THE consultants There are. AND Quality material.
Between the garage equipment in the gym and now with the box (Crossfit® Frankton) almost 7 years with all the equipment, I highly recommend Fit ‘& Rack. We are almost larger showroom that they (crossfit® of the mountains).
What does Fit ‘& Rack represent for you today?
My answer could be a bit distorted, but really what Fit ‘& Rack represents for me: they are already two friends. Throughout the start we were customers and quite quickly we really became friends of Xavier and Flo (Co-gestor De Fit ‘& Rack). Xaxier, I think I write to him every 2 days, for everything and anything. It’s really a trusted brand and partnership who turned into friendship. Thanks to you guys!
Do you have a surprising memory with fit ‘and rack?
I don’t know if I really have a surprising memory with fit ‘& rack, but I always have significant ideas! They are very open on many things: tell them what you want and, with a little reflection, they manage to eliminate any equipment. When I ask them a little obstacle courseAfter a few weeks, they take a route to obstacles. They are the only box to have this course.
I ask them for a Container trailer With the rack hanging on it, to tow it with my retreat and move everywhere, they pull out a trailer. I ask them with their feet to occupy much less space, they take me away with smaller feet and have more space.
Frankly, my answer is super simple to know which equipment I keep if Fit ‘& Rack no longer existed: the traction bar and its finish «Sickle«, It’s a socket! Of any traction bar, of any brand, I’m sure you have the tasty!
My box is equipped only with a speal finish bar, except 2 Normal bar (medium black finish grain) and 2 galvanized bars (galvanized finish), but for the rest all the other traction bars are in sporal finish and really, it is a bomb!
Box information
How was CrossFit Frankton born?
As I explained previously, throughout the start, I was a soldier, 13th battalion of Alpine hunters, and I had created a gym garage with a friend, from 2014 to the end of 2016. And the desire to grow and have a real box really improved in my research and my idea. Suddenly with Aurélie, my wife, we decided to go up Crossfit® Frankton After my military contract. So we opened on October 2, 2017 and we are at the opening of a next box very soon!
Your biggest pride for Crossfit Frankton?
My coaches! The 3 coaches I have with me are already my greatest pride that can work with me. And then, these are my members, of the return we have of our members.
A mockery on the next changes of Crossfit Frankton?
As I did, we did the sixth year of Crossfit Frankton, we are in seventh place and suddenly there is a CrossFit Frankton 2 that arrives! In March/April, the Frankton Cluba slightly larger room than Frankton 1, a truly type of type competition. Everything is fine member He will have his 2-meter traction bar, his 5-meter WOD corridor, his wall space on the wall, his vertical push-up space … as in competition! Suddenly, it will never be where when you are doing your double ups or you want to prepare for your tear and someone pass in front of you, etc.
We will also have a huge Slide 6 meters for 15 meters. With the evolution of Hyrox, we get inside, so a trace track is almost mandatory. It will be an evolution hell and we can’t wait to see it completely above ground. You have an interest in following this!
As for your experience as owner
How owner of a box, how does one of your typical days take place?
The awakening, difficult as for everyone! If I do not train during the day or that I train late at night, I will come to check the room, check that everything goes well, that everything is stored as I wanted, that everything is clean. I train and try to make lessons with the members in the morning. I go home, with Aurélie, rather Aurélie by the way, take care of the waste and finish the programming. In the evening I go back to the coach, while I have a visu in the organization of the room.
An owner who does not train can spend less time in his room. But a owner Who trainerAll the time has his eyes everywhere in his room: between coaching, he will try to repair a tap on the run or the fleeing ceiling, which the owner does not want to repair for 3/4 years. And yes … this is also the life of the owner, among the lessons in which you have 15 minutes in pause, you will put a little javelle on your Plat because the owner does not want!
But it’s really a good life. If you have the soul of a Crossfitour oa director of the room And that you are quite sociable, I don’t know what I’m doing there: he laughs, the life of an owner of a coach is really beautiful. I think we have a good job and we must not complain.
My answer is a bit distorted because we were in association with Jo to manage the Garage Chambéry gym, we had administrative waste between insurance, bank, etc. So it’s «easy enough» to open the box.
But I would recommend the coach owners not to do everything. That there is a person who takes care of everything Crossfit® And a person who takes care of the administrative side. Everyone has their own task and I think it is that it really works better!
We were on Chambéry with Aurélie and the box was in Bordeaux, among the round trips and the direction with the end of the army, I think it led us to Ten months To find the premises, perform the job remotely, do the quotes and order the equipment with Fit ‘& Rack. I think that to open a box, if you find the room quickly enough, it takes ten months, but in any case for the second box, since we take our time is really that.
For the budget, it all depends on how you want your box. If you want a large or small box, a box with all the gear or a slightly «homemade» box in which we can adapt each time. At the beginning only with Crossfit Frankton, we chose to take almost everything from the beginning. Inevitably everything did not yet exist and we evolved over time, but for the neighbor we will have everything. From the point of view of the equipment, we are not far from 90-100k euroBecause we decided to have everything for members: we will have rowers, Les Echos bikes, Erg bikes, Erg Skiing …
We decided to have this budget to offer this quality of service to our members and see wide. But we are not obliged, to offer a beautiful Crossfit® to see it so large that we can also Start with 60k eurosAnd I will really say that it is Between 60 and 100k.
One word from the end?
It wasn’t exactly in questions, but I really want to thank Fit ‘& Rack for theirs Trust. But suddenly are they trust me!? He became really friend. The slightest idea that I could have been able to pull him out. For the next box, I would have only had a bar of almost 2 meters and suddenly the Tozzo bar did not adapt, so it will make me a tailor -made support so that each member has its own position in squat. I have it in mind, but I would have many other things.
Do not hesitate to go and see Fit ‘& RackThere are many manufacturers of equipment in France or in the United States, but do not hesitate to work in France, it is not necessarily more expensive and the return is very fast. I really want to thank you guys. To integrate myself into the team, in addition to me in Team athletes Even if I am not necessarily a very large athlete, -ist ri -no the males! Thanks to you guys for your trust. We will see each other soon! HI! «» «»
Thanks Guillaume!
