Dogg Pound Crossfit opens

One of Clovis’ newest businesses is The Dogg Pound Crossfit.

“I believe everyone has a dog in them, like a sled dog that just keeps pushing on. I want to cultivate an atmosphere that when people walk in they’ll know we’re going to work hard,” Destany Brown said.

Brown and her husband Zachery had a soft opening for the business just over a week ago.

“We’re planning a grand opening involving the Clovis-Curry County Chamber of Commerce soon,” Brown said.

Destany is from Washington state, Zachery is from Oregon. They spent a few years in Oklahoma and moved to Clovis to be near family.

“I am the head coach. I am a Level 2 crossfit coach, my husband is admin for the business,” Brown said.

Brown describes crossfit as functional fitness executed at relative high intensity.

“It’s fitness that’s going to make you better at life, to involve the cardiovascular system while still building strength. For example, working on a strong dead-lift in the gym is going to ensure you’re going to be prepared for life’s demands when you pick up something heavy,” Brown said.

The Dogg Pound Crossfit is at 1460 N. Main St., directly across from the Marshall Sixth Grade Academy.
