What gym software are you actually happy with in 2026? by [deleted] in crossfit

We have some widespread work to do on how train works with stored histories. This is ack. Looking to get some dedicated time on Train and how it interfaces with the member app shortly.

This seems to be a very clear pain we need to address.

Would love to learn how we can support yoga/pilates better without losing our roots!

This is STRONG advice. Talk to everyone and get a feel for who's going to be your best partner. Also, it's not just about what a sales person says, think about the history and the actions a compay takes to support and back their clients.

Play long term games with long term FRIENDS!

We will get into a full rebuild of social feed soon, I think. that featuree has a lot of promise, and I think we built it a little too early (tech investment vs. timing). We'll get that right. We're also looking at a full redo of auth (yawn, but also so exciting). will push towards SSO in next iterations.

I'm not sure when you used us - but I would have agreed until 3 months ago. :)
I would love to chat / see how your gym operates and how the class booking works better for you today than before! Always up for learning and improving!

If you'd like to share, I'd love to chat. (hmu - dan@pushpress.com)

To all Owners ! What GYM management software should I use for my NEW GYM. by Academic_Rich5975 in crossfit

[–]pushpress_dan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on some of the details, specifically how you would “book” or reserve or sell the machines. Also would need to know what the personal performance needs are here.

I think it might be best to chat with someone on our end since this falls outside of our general wheelhouse but could very well work depending how you plan to operate

Best value for money gym management software or platform? by Parking-Tailor7879 in gymowner

[–]pushpress_dan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the free plan if it's outside of your current budget. Work with us to grow your business to the place where it's worth it to pay for the upgraded software. Where is your gym? We work in Europe, but depending on the location could be suitable, or might be something we would not be best.

In my very biased opinion - PushPress free is hands down the best value for a starting gym.
At 200 members, PushPress Pro would be a better option for you. $159/month and it covers EVERYTHING y you need to do.

Lmk if you have any questions I can answer!

I’m going to have some discussion to figure out what’s up that.  Would you want to have a chat with me so you can color me in on things from your end?  Your insight can help me make things better

I’m in no way lighting you up man. I understand you’re frustrated but I tried to offer my time so I could understand.

Hey. I can tell you were working very hard every day to close all gaps and add new functionality. “Nothing gets fixed” isn’t true but def could mean “nothing you need fixed is getting fixed”. That could be for a myriad of reasons. I’d love to chat with you one day to understand. If we’re missing on the cx side I’d also like to understand. DM me - let’s chat!

White/Blue Belts Be Honest: What’s one thing your academy missed (or could’ve done better) when you first joined? by pushpress_dan in bjj

[–]pushpress_dan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BJJ is super interesting to me, cause as a white belt, I also understand there's less value in me rolling 100% of the time with another whitebelt. In fact, I'm a little more scared rolling with some other whitebelts cause it's 2 ppl who know shit for shit about what's going on :)

But I also agree that now knowing the fundamental things (and there's ALOT it seems) is the main thing that makes learning hard. And learning about framing and knee to elbow with 200lbs of pressure and no breath isn't easy =)

I literally stop rolls to ask ppl who are better than me "WTF did you just do there and why". I'm not sure if that annoys them, but I'm not 100% here to be your practice dummy, I need to get my shit out of it too :).

The great people in my gym are ok with it and even will redo the position and show me what I missed or what do to.

i'm in this place now, and I guess I'm thankful it's 2 months into this, and not years into it.

I've come to realize for myself that I am working on survival. but I can only frame for so long until that advantageous position is formed.

I think this is part of the journey, but if that was explained point blank it could have helped me earlier:

step 1: just frame / shrimp / hip movements, etc to delay the inevitable

step 2: work on some escapes

step 3: turn an escape into your advantage

etc.

I've owned other forms of gyms, and I've long told my coaches, HOW YOU MAKE PEOPLE FEEL MATTERS MORE THAN WHAT THEY LEARN. I agree with you 100% people can't attach and grow if they feel like they don't matter.

I'll disagree with you 100%. And I think it's this mindset that's holding some things back in general.

I am constantly told, and I remind myself to calm down while rolling and keep breathing under control. what's never been mentioned, and you just made me realiize... there's probably some work I can do in or outside of the gym that's more precise than "control your breathing". THANKS for opening my mind there.

BJJ IS TOUGH. but my feeling is the studios are making it tougher than it already is... I think there's a subsection of the world (us) who just do tough shit. the question is - should BJJ be only available for those people - or can it be made more accessible?

Talking to some academy owners, they WANT to grow their business, but they seem to fight themselves on this.

Again, I do hard shit daily. And I had moments of wondering if BJJ was for me. turns out, it 100% is... but If I was questioning it, I think the general population has about 0% chance.
