ABOUT CHLKDUP
CHLKDUP is a training brand out of Nashville: a gym in Sylvan Park and the apparel we build and test there.
We train everyday people to be capable. Strong enough to carry your kids, handle a hard week, and get up off the floor without thinking about it. We hold a standard here, and we hold it for everyone. You don't have to meet it to walk in.
How It Started
CHLKDUP started in 2019 as gear. No warehouse, no ad budget. Just shirts and shorts vended out of a trailer at CrossFit competitions across the Southeast, made for people who actually train.
For years the brand lived everywhere except its own walls. In 2026 that changed: we took over the old Nashville Fit Lab space at 3307 Charlotte Ave and opened CHLKDUP Training Grounds. Now the gear gets tested where we coach every day.
Meet Greg
Greg Brannon founded CHLKDUP and still runs all of it: the gym, the gear, and coaching on the floor. He's been doing CrossFit since 2012 and has called Nashville home for over a decade.
He's a husband and a dad of two, which is a big part of why "capable" matters more to him than any PR.
