It’s Never Too Late to Start — Introducing Sycamore CrossFit ENCORE

At Sycamore CrossFit, we believe fitness is for everyone — no matter your age, background, or starting point. And now, we’re proud to introduce a program that proves just that:

Sycamore CrossFit ENCORE.

This brand-new class is designed for individuals who are ready to take control of their health later in life — whether you're in your 50s, 60s, or beyond. Whether you’ve never set foot in a gym or haven’t been active in years, ENCORE is your fresh start.

And it’s all inspired by one incredible woman: Sue.

Meet Sue

When Sue first walked into Sycamore CrossFit, she didn’t think she belonged. In her words:

“Here’s the deal. I’m unhealthy. I’ve had a stroke. Smoked for 16 years. I probably need to lose a hundred pounds. My lungs are crap. I have high blood pressure and maybe diabetes. My mom died in June, and I don’t want to be next.”

She was 57 years old. Scared. Certain she was too far gone.

But instead of rejection, Sue found something else:
Support. Acceptance. A community that believed in her — even before she believed in herself.

And everything began to change.

Sue lost weight. Built strength. Reversed her diabetes. Got off blood pressure meds. Climbed mountains. Paddleboarded. Traveled. Laughed more. Moved better. And kept showing up for her grandkids — and for herself.

Now she’s a certified CrossFit coach and the driving force behind ENCORE, a program created to help others experience the transformation she did.

What Is ENCORE?

• Are recovering from health setbacks or years of inactivity
• Want to move better, feel better, and enjoy life more — without intimidation
• Have been told they’re “too old” or “too out of shape” to start

If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t know if I can do this,” ENCORE is your answer.
