How has CrossFit changed your life, lifestyle and overall level of fitness: CF has not only changed me physically to be stronger it has changed me mentally also. It’s a good feeling to leave CF knowing you have finished a CF work out-different and challenging every time. It’s a confidence builder to me to know that I can still do it—maybe not like I once did, but I finished.

Name one goal or achievement you would like to achieve through CrossFit: to do a pull up-unassisted!

What is something about you that most people wouldn’t know: I am an only child
Any advice for new members: CrossFit is for all people, all ages, all sizes—everyone fits! The elite train with the rookies without any part of the work out being compromised. The trainers are dedicated to precision instruction and support at all levels. I’ve been in the exercise industry over 30 years. I have seen many different programs come and go. CF combines the functional training and strength training for an overall goal oriented work out that makes one work to his/her potential. The best part is –it’s a blast—even at 6:30 in the morning!
