“I love my kiddo, Troy.  Being a mom is the best thing in the world and CrossFit takes second place. My favorite thing about CrossFit is the community of amazing people it has formed. My life feels fulfilled when making new friends and doing all I can to help them achieve their goals inside and outside the gym. Hard to choose a favorite WOD but I really love to do muscle ups even if they aren’t my strength. I love living the paleo plus peanut butter lifestyle but I cut loose on paleo margaritas and pizza occasionally. ”

“ I was officially introduced to CrossFit in November 2009. I don’t recall specifically what the WOD was, but I remember thinking “Now THIS is how you should work out.”
After ballooning to a very unhealthy weight, I had taken up fitness and triathlons but had noticed a plateau in my performances. This has not been the case with CrossFit. The more I did it, the more I was enthralled. This led me to earn my L1 trainer’s certification in February 2011.
The phrases that remain foremost in my mind when discussing CrossFit are “constantly varied” and “universally scalable”.  Constantly varied tells you that the workouts will change. They never get boring and there is always another skill to master. Universally scalable means ANYONE can do it. In the beginning if there are workouts you can’t do as prescribed (and there will be), the modifications are tailored to help you but still challenge you.
On a personal note, I have been married to my beautiful wife since 1998 and we have been blessed with two sons. My wife, Christine, and I CrossFit together frequently and our boys, Ryan and Adam, love to get involved as well. I have worked as a teacher since 1994 – first at the high school level and now with grades 1-8.
CrossFit is a big part of my life – from daily WODS to nutrition. There is not an aspect of my life that has not been positively affected by CrossFit. I enthusiastically encourage you to give it a try.”

“I will be great, I will fail, I will get back up. I pledge allegiance to peanut butter with Starbucks in hand. My favorite WOD? There is no such thing. The ocean is the answer to any bad day. Surfing is what I do and love, but CrossFit is who I am. My dog is awesome and stinky. I am pretty great at making people laugh and I have a killer tan. Helping people succeed is better than any PR. Breathe. Orange peanut.”

“All you have to do is dare to dream. Any wod that makes you wanna lose your lunch and hit the deck, I’m a fan of. Carrots, bananas and peanut butter are my favorite. I love smiling and will laugh at almost anything. Anything by Macklemore is my jam. Coffee is a way of life. ”

“I have had a passion for fitness ever since hitting 30 years of age when things started to change both physically & mentally for me. I found Crossfit several years later which was a real eye opener & found out how important it is to have a coach which was the missing part of my fitness. It was that turn around in me which made me want to pursue coaching as well. Outside of the gym I am a very laid back, easy going person who loves to spend time with his girlfriend & dog. I also enjoy almost any outdoor activity, there is just something about being out in the fresh air…  ”
