- Why did you start CrossFit? I really wanted to work on my general fitness and meet new people. I’ve always wanted to see how far I could push myself. I freaked when I first walked up to the box and saw all these ‘hardcores’. Straight away someone could see that I was new, said hey and introduced me to Kelly for my fundamentals. I have got so much room for improvement to find my MAX limit but I am so glad I got my butt into gear and started CrossFit.
- What do you love about CrossFit Access? I love the environment at Access. It always feels positive and it always feels good to rock up and see everyone. Someone is always cracking a joke or giving you a tip on how to improve. The coaches are all on to it and I feel like they’re invested in seeing people improve. There always seems to be a social event or a fundraiser or a comp for you be a part of. More than just a CrossFit box!
- Any advice for anyone just starting their CrossFit journey? Just keep going. You might feel dead on your feet but it’s worth it. Tomorrow you might get a PB!!
