BBQAF is the result of a conversation in 2020 between me and my friend, Tim Dymmel, OG & Owner of CrossFit Palo Alto. During the pandemic, we were a resource for each other for support and business advice at the most challenging time ever for our gyms – usually getting together for good BBQ. Just like the early days of CrossFit, we relied upon ourselves and our peers for ideas and operational guidance. For example, in 2016, I received consultation from Chris Cooper (TwoBrain) and Tommy Hackenbruck (Ute CrossFit) that helped our business tremendously.

So, as Tim and I made our way out of the pandemic, we decided to “pay it forward” and offer our help and support to any affiliate who reached out and committed to also pay it forward.

On this page you’ll find some quality resources that we rely upon for our operations as well as a link to schedule a call with me. If you do, just be prepared, transparent and open-minded. You’ll get input and advice based upon 17+ years of Affiliate ownership experience. 

IMPORTANT: We do not receive any compensation for referrals or advices. All we ask is that you pay it forward to your community or another CrossFit Affiliate.
