Let’s get one thing super clear.
The Mentality Lab (Home of CrossFit Amarillo) is not here to blend in with the status quo.
Most gyms treat you like a number, banking on you forgetting your membership to line their pockets. They sign up thousands, knowing only a fraction will show up, and count on auto-debits to keep the cash flowing while you fade into the background.
That’s not a gym—it’s a hustle.
We’re different.
We don’t stand on the sidelines.
We walk beside you, unpacking how your body moves, recovers, and grows stronger. Our in-house programming (crafted by an expert who doesn’t outsource your health but actually shows up every day to talk to you and listen to your needs) isn’t about chasing trends—it’s about giving you real knowledge for real strength. We’re here to rewrite what a gym should be: a place where your health isn’t a transaction, but a partnership.
The Corporate Gym Trap
Big-box gyms thrive on a model that’s more about profit than people. They overpack their rolls with members, expecting most to vanish after the New Year’s rush. Studies show only 20-30% of gym-goers stick around past a few months—those gyms plan for it. Long-term contracts and corporate “perks” with tricky cancellation clauses trap you, auto-charging even if you haven’t stepped foot inside in a year. It’s a system designed to forget you, complete with untrained staff pushing overpriced add-ons like supplements or generic classes.
That’s not just bad service—it’s exploitation. They’re betting on your absence, not your success. Your health deserves better than being a line item in someone’s revenue stream, or potentially worse, a way to line someone’s pockets.
Why We’re Different
At The Mentality Lab (Home of CrossFit Amarillo), we’re flipping the script. Our approach starts with you—not as a membership ID, but as an athlete with a unique body and goals. Our owner, a daily presence, designs every workout to balance strength, conditioning, and recovery, grounded in cutting-edge research for longevity. We don’t just hand you a plan and walk away. Our coaches teach you what each movement does, why it matters, and how it keeps you moving well for years to come.
Unlike those faceless chains, we’re not here to upsell you or let you slip through the cracks. We’re your partner, invested in every step—whether you’re crushing a lift or stretching it out post-workout. That’s what sets us apart: real expertise, real connection, real results.
