Our Story
CrossFit Tampa Bay was founded in 2011 and has been dedicated to its athletes and community from the start.
After coming under new ownership in 2021, it was renamed CrossFit Uproar and continued to drive forward under the leadership of long-time member, Juan Rodriguez.
The box was purchased by its coaches in January 2024 and CrossFit graciously allowed us to adopt our old name again.
Not Just a Pretty Face
Our new branding reflects our lineage, using the skull from the early CFTB days and the Lion from CrossFit Uproar.
“Burn the Ships” means leaving your old self and habits behind by moving in a single direction, forward.
Quite simply, no plan B. No bailout. No looking back. Just 100% commitment to winning any battle and accomplishing any goal.
It’s attributed to Spanish explorer, Hernán Cortés who gave the order upon landing in Mexico.
Cortés knew his crew was already exhausted after the long sea journey, but he had to motivate them to succeed in the new land. So he ordered the burning of the ships after they arrived.
