✨Meet Our New Owner✨
Zachary Pfeil - He/Him/They

Zachary has been doing CrossFit since 2016, but has had a passion for fitness and coaching his entire life. Growing up in Ohio, Zachary participated in gymnastics, dance, and swimming and has coached each sport throughout his life.

In 2016, he Zachary moved to Minneapolis and joined a CrossFit gym in hopes to meet some new friends - and he was immediately hooked. Within a year, Zachary was competing in local competitions and getting his L1 so he could coach.

In August, Zachary made the decision to purchase North Strong Nordeast in hopes of creating a welcoming and inclusive space for everyone of all walks of life to enjoy functional fitness.

FUN FACT: Workouts are statistically 63% more bearable when you have this good boy cheering you on from the benches.

Meet River - One of the many K9 Members of the North Strong Family. He is a gentle giant in a “no-thoughts-just-vibes” kind of way.

COACH HIGHLIGHT: Kyle Schleis
@schleiskyle
Kyle has been coaching at North Strong for over 5 years now and brings his CrossFit passion and expertise to every class he coaches.

Kyle leads our Monday evening classes and our athletes love kicking off the week with him. He tends to push you harder than you think you could work, while somehow making it seem like it was your idea to do it.

Additionally - Kyle and his new wife are expecting their first BABY in March 2027 and we’re all super pumped for another little gym bud who will likely be outfitting half the gym by the age of 4.

QUESTION OF THE DAY: What’s currently making you smile?

For me, it’s the positive vibes and energy that I get from our lovely community every day. There’s so much sh*t happening in the world that I feel blessed to be able to be around so many happy and smiling faces every day

Here at North Strong, we get that stepping into a new fitness space can be intimidating. Banging weights, loud music, a room full of strangers… it can be a scary place.

That’s why we’re so happy to be considered one of the most welcoming and inclusive communities in the Twin Cities.

If you’ve been looking for a new place to call home and aren’t sure where to start, stop in for an intro session and let’s chat!

This week, we lost a beloved member of the North Strong family - Pebbles.

Pebbles has been a staple of the community for over 4 years and came in every day ready to cheer on the class in exchange for ample pets and treats.

Pebbles was always excited to meet new people, found comfort cuddling with our coaches during class, and loved keeping track of your no-reps in her head from her perch in the corner of the room.

Her dad, Peter, and sister, Juniper, deserve some extra love, so please join me in sending condolences.

Rest Easy, Pebbles. You will be missed by all of us. ❤️ taken in Northeast Minneapolis by @northstrongmpls

September Athlete of the Month - Juan Garcia

Meet Juan. He is what we like to call one of our boomerang members. He was a member of North Strong years ago when we were at our old location and found us again this past year.

Juan has become a staple of the 6am classes with his doggo Ghost (Pictured third) where he shares his positive vibes and commitment to showing up and doing the work!

Welcome back Juan! We’re thrilled to have you as part of our family!

April Athlete of the Month: Kristina Marchetti
@kristinam0
(Yes I know it’s already May but I forgot to post this earlier in the week 🫠)

Kristina has been at the gym since last year and brings a bubbly smile and a great attitude to every class - whether is 6am or the end of the day.

She’s a true example of the ancient proverb - “Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people don’t kill their husbands.” - Gandhi, probably

SNAPS FOR KRISTINA!!!

🚨 WARNING 🚨 CUTENESS ALERT
Meet Rory.
Rory has been coming to the gym since she was just a baby - and while she is still under a year old, she is growing into a demure and lovely young lady. (Manifestation works, right?)

What she lacks in mass, she makes up for in puppy energy and bark decibels. You can catch her most evenings either loudly cheering on the athletes or aggressively asking for the attention to be on her - we’re not sure which.
