Reintroducing CrossFit Veneration: Adding Years to Your Life and Life to Your Years
At CrossFit Veneration, we believe health is the foundation for living fully—not just existing, but thriving. Whether you’ve been with us for years or recently joined our community, we want to take a moment to reintroduce ourselves, share our mission, and remind you of what makes our gym different.
Who We Are
We are Gabriella and Steele Strout, co-owners and coaches at CrossFit Veneration. Coaching isn’t just our career—it’s our calling.
👩🦰 Gabriella Strout – I’ve been coaching in the CrossFit space for 6 years, with a focus on coaching, managing, and nutrition support. Helping busy adults gain confidence and consistency in their fitness and nutrition is my passion. You can reach me at [email protected].
👱♂️ Steele Strout – With 7 years of coaching experience, including leadership as a Head Coach, I focus on programming, athlete development, and growing our coaching team. My goal is to help our community get results faster, safer, and more effectively. Contact me at [email protected].
Our Mission
Our mission is simple yet profound: Help 5,000 busy adults in Johnstown, Ohio add years to their life and life to their years.
We serve busy adults, ages 30-60, who are often caught in the chaos of careers, families, and obligations. This is the season of life where healthy habits are most at risk of falling apart—and that’s where we step in. We help our members:
- Shed unwanted body fat
- Build strength that lasts
- Boost energy and confidence
- Reduce stress and overwhelm
- Maximize healthspan—the years of life lived fully functional and independent
Why? Because we believe you deserve to live without limitations, medications, or dependence. We exist to help you live freely, confidently, and independently for as long as possible.
What Makes Us Different
We are not just another gym. Our community is built on purpose and results, guided by values that we live every single day:
✅ Help First – We listen, we care, and we solve problems. Selling is simply helping people find the best solution to reach their goals.
✅ Undeniable Excellence – From coaching to facility to results, we hold ourselves to the highest standards.
✅ Seek Bright Spots – We celebrate wins, big and small, every week. Gratitude and motivation fuel our progress.
✅ Results Are King – At Veneration, results aren’t optional—they’re expected. Our members see life-changing transformations.
Our method combines structured, progressive fitness training, nutrition coaching, and habit-building support in a professional, results-driven, and welcoming environment.
Who We Serve
We help high-achieving adults—engineers, nurses, business owners, parents, executives, educators, first responders, and more—find fitness and community. Many arrive stressed, out of shape, and looking for direction. Others come in already in the routine but seeking a community that challenges and supports them. Either way, our program is designed to fit into their busy schedules while delivering maximum results.
But we don’t just help adults. We also help kids build a love for fitness at an early age. By creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment, we give children the foundation they need to stay healthy for life. This foundation doesn’t just improve long-term health—it also helps them perform better in sports, teaching movement, coordination, and confidence that carries over to the field, court, or track. We believe the habits kids develop today shape the athletes, leaders, and healthy adults they’ll become tomorrow.
Our members aren’t average—and neither are we. We’re building a movement that defies the status quo of American health.
