Eric Taylor

Eric has been doing CrossFit since 2014 after growing up playing just about every sport—soccer, volleyball, basketball, track, and cross country. Found CrossFit and never looked back. It feeds his competitive side while keeping him healthy and active.

Coaching style is simple—have fun, be coachable, and the rest will take care of itself. Big on motivation and giving that extra push when you need it, but also making sure you’re moving well and staying safe. Equal parts coach and hype man.
‍

Favorite workout is Grace—30 clean and jerks for time. Loves anything with a heavy barbell or machines (bike/row); the grindier, the better.
‍

Outside the gym, he’s a husband, a dad to two girls, and has a full house with a dog named Steve (yes, Captain Steve Rogers) and three cats. Big Marvel and Transformers fan—has definitely watched them all more times than he can count.

OCI is all about the people. The community, the relationships, and the way everyone shows up for each other are what make it different. It’s more than a gym—it’s a place where real connections are built every day.
