October first marked six months that CJ Strength & Conditioning, LLC, has been in their current location at 321 Commercial Street in Rockport.  Owners-Instructors Chris Chacon and Jack Hauprich can’t believe how quickly those months have flown by, and it’s no wonder - they’ve  been busy!

     CJ Strength moved from their previous location in Warren upon purchasing the former Stonecoast Crossfit business.  Both are residents of the Camden-Rockport area, and are Camden Hills alumni.  Chacon reports, “It’s good to be home.”

     When asked what makes their facility stand out in the industry, the business partners agree:

     “It sounds like a cliche,” says Chacon, “but it’s absolutely the sense of community here that you don’t always get in a gym setting.  Our membership ranges from seniors, strengthening after surgery or injury, to young guys in their twenties with different goals.  We welcome them all.” 

     “It’s personal,” adds Hauprich.  “It’s our responsibility to make sure every single member gets what they came for, and then some.   The thing I like best is when people ask for help, for example, modifying a workout to work around an injury, or to meet an individual’s fitness level.  It’s fun to change things up and to customize programs.  Helping people succeed feels great.”

     “Our days are long,” says Chacon, “but when you’re doing what you love, it makes all the difference.

     CJ Strength & Conditioning always welcomes new members, and invites the public to come visit.  “Drop in,” says Chacon, “we’re always happy to show you around.”
