Meet Your Coaches in Grain Valley, MO
We've assembled a team of some of the best coaches around, united by a passion for helping you build confidence, get stronger, and enjoy the process along the way.
Hi, I'm Felix Fig
I founded Fig Fitness in 2011 and grew it into CrossFit Fig in 2013. I built this gym around the camaraderie I loved as a college football player. CrossFit was the closest thing I found to being back on a team, and I wanted to create that same feeling here in Grain Valley.
I'm among the most experienced CrossFit coaches in the area, with 13 years coaching CrossFit and another six years of group fitness and personal training experience before that. I also studied Health Promotion and Physical Education and previously held a NASM certification.
Technique is a top priority in every class. I want you to move well, stay safe, and understand why we do what we do. But getting better should be fun, too.
The fun is what creates community, and the community is what keeps you coming back. Whether you are brand new to fitness or chasing a big goal, I am here to coach you, cheer you on, and make sure you feel like you belong.

What We Stand For
Community First
I believe the best part of CrossFit is the people beside you. We build each other up inside and outside the gym.
Safety & Form
I prioritize proper form and technique so you can build strength safely and get the most from every workout.
Inclusivity
You do not have to be fit to start. Every workout can be scaled, and every member deserves to feel welcome.
Results-Driven
I coach with purpose: helping you get stronger, build confidence, and keep showing up for yourself.
