Cressey Performance Facility Tour
This past Saturday we celebrated the grand opening of our brand spankin new facility. As you’ll see from the video below, we’ve grown throughout the years. What started as a rinky dink 2200 sq. foot space in the summer 0f 2007, has grown to a current 15,000+ sq. foot mecca of awesome.
The most surreal part? Our new lobby/greeting area is larger than the ENTIRE footprint of the original CP. If you can imagine, at one point, Eric, Pete, and myself shared an office.
Nonetheless, I just wanted to thank everyone who showed up this past weekend to offer their support and to help inaugurate the new space. While many of our athletes, parents of athletes, clients, and ex-interns showed up to get their lift on, there were also a fair amount of fitness friends and colleagues who made a cameo appearance as well including John Romaniello, Sean Hyson, Ben Bruno, Jen Sinkler, David Dellanave, Neghar Fonooni, Alli McKee, and Dick Talens to name a few.
In fact, we all got a pretty epic training session in at the end of the day complete with BBQ. Just to give you an idea of some of the shenanigans that went down here’s Roman and Bruno doing their best Ace and Gary impersonation teaming up on a set of Jefferson deadlifts.
Okay enough of the shenanigans. Here’s the video. SHA-ZAM!
NOTE: Credit to myself for the Steven Spielberg’esque camera work! Man, I’m good.
Thanks again to everyone for all their help and support.

A coworker and I were looking and drooling over the number of squat racks and the 45yd sprint track. Man I want to come to Boston just to visit the gym!August 31, 2012 at 9:32 am |

We've got five power rack, four deadlifting stations, turf for days, and ONE treadmill that, admittedly, gets used more as a coat rack than anything else. You're welcome to come anytime!September 3, 2012 at 10:56 am |

It was a pleasure to hear Eric speak at the JPFitness summit in KC. Eric's message is solid and the new facility looks like it really backs that up. Congrats on the new digs.October 2, 2012 at 8:16 am |
