Coach Dan's Sunday Spotlight 3.30.2025

Good morning CFTP and happy almost birthday to us!

We are turning 13!

We will turn 13 in 2 days! You know what that means? BULL is on the program for Tuesday. It's not an April Fools joke...

13 Year Beast Mode Party

What is Beast Mode?

I started CrossFit The Point with Ryan Beatse and a year later we added Dave Martinez to the ownership group. When the three of us were all owners, we came up with the idea of Beast Mode. What beast mode is is a long arduous workout that we would do late on a Friday or Saturday night.

Back in the day, we wouldn't announce Beast Mode in advance. We would wait until around 2 PM on a Saturday for a beast mode that would start at like 9 PM. That didn't stop people from coming. We would pack the house with 6 hours of notice.

The workout itself is not announced until everyone shows up to the gym. The workout would generally take about an hour and would include fun movements such as Tire Flips, Rope Climbs, Muscle ups, Log carries, Sled pushes, etc. It didn't matter what level athlete was there, we would figure out a way for them to participate.

Some of the greatest memories were generated at these beast modes.

CFTP Birthday Beast Mode

This 13 year birthday beast mode will be more. We are inviting all present and past members to come and participate. We will be taking on an awesome workout but we will also be hanging out afterwards with some food and drink and we will be having a presentation of a video to reflect on the 13 years of CrossFit The Point.

This is an important milestone for CrossFit The Point and an awesome opportunity to celebrate what CrossFit The Point has meant to you and for me to see everyone who has had such a momentous impact on my life. We never know what the future might bring and I want to be able to see all of you together again. Past and present members are all invited. Please spread the word to our friends and CFTP family. Once a CFTP member, always a CFTP member.

I am truly grateful for the opportunity I have had over the past 13 years to be part of this family. Sometimes we are so focused on the future, that we forget to reflect on the past. This is a chance for me to thank you all and for all of us to come together and cheer each other on again and reflect on all the experiences we have had together.

Hope to see everyone there!
