    Welcome To Natural Selection CrossFit

    Welcome to Natural Selection CrossFit. Not just a place to get healthy and stronger, but a community of people who push you to be the best version of yourself you can be.

    Natural Selection CrossFit started in 2010 with three men who wanted to have fun and have somewhere to workout. Shortly after our Owner/Head Coach Leo Barillas took ownership and grew the gym to what it is today. A loving environment of coaches that love to see you succeed. Natural Selection CrossFit is the longest standing CrossFit gym in Tri Cities and is excited to aid in your fitness journey.

    Leo Barillas - Head Coach

    Meet Head Coach

    Leo Barillas

    As a young athlete in middle school and high school, I always had a passion for fitness. Shortly after graduating High School I shipped out for boot camp to MCRD Camp Pendleton to become a United States Marine. My athletic background and drive aided me in being at the top of my graduating platoon.

    While in the Marines I found CrossFit and got many certifications. After falling in love with the sport I decided I wanted to open up a CrossFit gym. I got out of the military and moved back to Tri Cities Washington shortly after having my first born.

    I started volunteering at Natural Selection CrossFit and was offered ownership by the owners at that time, because they noticed the value I brought to the table. I am now the sole owner of Natural Selection CrossFit and have big plans for the future.

    Welcome to Natural Selection CrossFit. Step into your strength.

    I walked into Natural Selection CrossFit a little nervous but determined, ready to become stronger and lose weight. From the moment I stepped through the door, Coach Josh welcomed me with a smile and introduced me to the group. The nerves faded quickly. During that first workout, Coach Josh stayed close, helping me adjust my positions, explaining proper form, and showing different ways to handle each movement and situation. There was no pressure—only patience, encouragement, and genuine support. Coach Josh’s kindness and belief in me made a tough workout feel achievable. What surprised me most was the atmosphere. Everyone in the CrossFit program cheered each other on, offering tips, high-fives, and motivation no matter the skill level. It didn’t feel like a gym full of strangers; it felt like a team. By the end of the workout, he realized that Natural Selection CrossFit wasn’t just a place to train—it was a family, and from day one, I knew I would keep going!

    I highly recommended NSX - if you are looking for an amazing community, great equipment, and coaches who TRULY care, then you have come to the right place. The best part of my day is 6:30 in the morning when I get to workout with my friends by my side. The best decision I’ve made in a long time was joining NSX!

    I’ve been a coach at NSX now and still stand by my words from 2 years ago: “NSX and its owner, Leo have been there for me more than once over the last few years. NSX has been a place I’ve always enjoyed being a member of, and a place I have always felt comfortable and welcomed; never degraded or spoken to poorly. The owner, coaches and other members are so supportive of each other every day. I love being apart of the NSX family. 💚 No matter where you are at in your fitness journey, you too can do CrossFit! Come join us!” I love that Leo pushes us to continue our education an expand our knowledge as coaches. We’re here when you’re ready!
