What made you start and what makes you keep coming back?:
I started Crossfit because I was at a sales training in Texas and there was this kid there who was just starting and was very small. Then I saw him on Facebook months later and he was jacked! So, I was like wow that must really work! I started asking around on some sales calls and Gary pointed me to your guys box, I talked Kevin into it and we showed. The workout was so intense, I would never have pushed myself that hard at the gym, and I was hooked the first time. I keep coming back because of the atmosphere, everyone has the same goals in mind, and we all work together to help each other achieve their own personal goal. I love how everyone helps each other out! Stays positive and pushes each other, to max out at your full potential.
If you could give any advice for a person new to CrossFit, what would it be?: Don’t let the movements freak you out. It is overwhelming at first, but I promise it will all jive together.
Please list two future goals: 6 months and One year: 6 months- have a baby. 12 months get muscle ups!!
