Nate Bacott

“What I love most about my work is helping so many people coming from diverse pathways of fitness. Everyone from professional CrossFit to weightlifting, GRID, powerlifting, military preparation, and rugby athletes to individuals in rehabilitation. I’ve gotten to share victories with expectant and postpartum moms, and athletes with lower and upper extremity post-injury rehabilitation. I’ve helped athletes discover and return to sport. The thrill of my career is the diversity of athletes and infinite differences in goals, progressions, programs, and habit formations I can create to serve them.”

Nate Bacott was heavily involved in operations of CrossFit United (Columbia Missouri’s 1st CrossFit Affiliate) in 2011 during his Senior year of college. Over the next 2 years, CrossFit United would grow as would Nate’s friendship with Tyler. CrossFit United reorganized and rebranded as CrossFit Fringe in 2013. The Fringe community continued to grow, and a professional development opportunity took Nate to Denver in 2015. During his time in Colorado, Nate was Manager & Head Coach at 2 different fitness facilities where he was responsible for the growth of their community and refining of their programs. In addition, he worked very closely with CrossOver Symmetry, a shoulder and hip rehabilitation equipment company, and Cascade Sports Physical Therapy.

As an athlete, he was able to qualify for the 2015 American Open Weightlifting Finals and in 2018 was on Team Alpine at the CrossFit South Regional. In 2019, wanting to be closer to family and friends, he relocated back to Missouri. Lucky for him we like him and his skills, and he is now our General Manager as well as head of our Specialty Programs.
