THE CROSSFIT 4566 WAY
"I am extremely passionate and proud of the community of members, families and coaches that we've built at CrossFit 4566!
It was always my vision to provide an amazing space where any person or child regardless of ability could come in to a world class facility, be surrounded by great people to support their long term health and fitness through the crossfit journey with the goal of being best version of themselves".
CrossFit 4566 is based in the paradise suburb of Noosa. Crossfit 4566 is passionate about its members and welcomes all people of any ability. The box was started by Richard Kelly an ex-professional rugby union player who found Crossfit through his rehabilitation after a career ending injury.
Richard has been involved in the fitness industry since 1997 and believed strongly in the Crossfit methodology through his own experiences as a crossfit athlete and coach as well as seeing how the crossfit training and community changes people’s lives.
CrossFit 4566 is unique because of our amazing Community!
The desire and commitment to get healthier, stronger and fitter both physically and mentally is the common bond that we share.
"We value integrity, tenacity and hard work over aesthetics and ego."
“It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.”
– Invictus by William Ernest Henley

I started training with Rich in his garage over 2 1/2 years ago because I was over 110kg, unhappy and very unfit. I wanted to become stronger and healthier to be a better role model for my daughter and to live a longer and fuller life with my family!
Over time I have seen Crossfit4566 expand into an amazing place where I daily feel inspired to be the best version of myself.
Since starting with Rich I have lost over 35kg and been able to keep it off. I am able to complete workouts and achieve things in the box that I would never have thought possible. Most importantly it has taught me to love what my body is capable of and not what it looks like.
We have created a community that’s purpose is to encourage and support each individual as they progress on their personal journey. I feel privileged every day to be a small part of those journeys. I often get tears of pride watching members achieve their goals and seeing them continue to turn up and be better than they were the day before.
The guidance and support of Rich and the other coaches has not only helped me to become a better athlete, it also helps my mental health to be in a positive and nurturing environment that is without judgment.
It is the community spirit and support of Rich and the other coaches that makes CrossFit4566 an inspiring place to be able to train in and continue to work on skills and goals alongside amazing people.

Hi, my name is Jannene. I am 58 years old and have been with CrossFit 4566 for the past four and a half years.
My motivation for joining was when I realised that I was unable to do ONE situp and shocked that I was unable to skip, run more than a few hundred meters or jump over a 6 inch high bar (SERIOUSLY!)
CrossFit 4566 has now changed my life, I am happier and healthier however the best thing of all is that I am now STRONG!
Watching what women my age, and older are achieving is what drives me.
