Crossfit Creed is an affiliate that was originally founded as Fitness 535. The numbers “535” are taken from a passage of scripture found in Romans 5:3-5: “But we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.”
