KINGSVILLE -

It's proof, just how tight-knit the community is in Kingsville. Saturday, the fitness community there came together to help the owner of a gym who lost everything in that major fire last weekend. That gym was one of five businesses destroyed in downtown Kingsville.

"It's great to see everyone really come together. The fitness community come together and everyone has been very helpful," said Michael Chapa, Clydesman Fitness owner.

Clydesman fitness along with fourother businesses were destroyed last week. The fire broke out last Saturday evening. It started in one business then spread. Electrical issues are believed to be the cause.

Chapa, like the others, lost a lot. Most of his gym equipment is okay, but the building is a total loss. Like many fitness centers, to the patrons, it was more than just a gym.

"For Clydesman, for Clydesman people... For them it was their home," said Chapa.

Sixth Street Crossfit rallied folks together for a cross fit style workout to help raise money for Chapa and his business. This fundraiser was a complete surprise to Chapa. In the end, the main thing he wants is to get his Clydesman fitness family back to their normal workout routines.

"People are ready to work out. And their getting anxious to get their lives back to normal, as they should," said Chapa. "If anything, you know, we're Clydesman Strong."

Chapa is a Army Ranger Veteran and a current member of the Texas National Guard. He has been given permission to use the old Texas National Guard armory in Kingsville as a work out space until he lands on his feet.
