Chrissie is one of our most committed members. She will never miss her afternoon WODs with the crew and it shows with her results. She also won our most attendance award for 2017. Chrissie loves her Olympic lifting sessions and throws some serious weight around and will be the first to tell you she hates running but deep down loves it. Always brings her 2 beautiful girls in (when they behave) and is setting an awesome example for them. Chrissie is improving constantly and we are really looking forward to seeing what she can achieve next year ( maybe a comp). Huge congrats to our athlete of the month for November, and let’s get to know more about his cool Mum here:
- Name: Chrissie Giorgio
- Age: 36
- Occupation: Registered Nurse
- How long have you been at CrossFit Access? About 5 years
- What do you enjoy doing outside of CrossFit? Spending time with family and friends.
- What is your favourite and least favourite movements or WODs? Fav: OLY lifting, Snatch. Least: Wall balls and rowing!

- What are your future goals? Improve all round strength and to maybe one day get a MU.
- Tell us something we don’t know about you. I love to bake cakes.
- Who’s your box buddy? I love all my “buddies” - mostly the 4.30/5.30pm crew
- Why did you start CrossFit? I just wanted to try something different. The general gym was getting a bit boring and I needed to change it up. I'm so glad I did. I have met so many amazing people who push me and inspire me every day. I look forward to going everyday!
- What do you love about CrossFit Access? I love the people! I enjoy coming in each day to hang out, the workout is a bonus. CrossFit pushes me to places I wouldn’t go on my own, takes me out of my comfort zone and I always feel better after its done.
- Any advice for anyone just starting their CrossFit journey? Don’t worry about what anyone else is doing, or how much they are lifting. Just work on you and your version of hard. The skills and strength take time. Enjoy the people, they will help and support you through it all.
