"Crossfit changed my life. The obvious can be stated, CrossFit WILL make you look better. Although I did not have much weight to lose, the toning of my body and muscle that I have gained has been tremendous and easily maintained without the dreaded word "diet." CrossFit is not just lifting heavy weights or doing crazy amounts of cardio. It incorporates all different movements into one great workout, that guarantees results.
I started CrossFit 2 years ago. Not knowing what to expect, I quickly became addicted to it. The drive to want to "rx" a workout quickly became a goal to work towards. The clock ticking not only taught me to pace myself so that I can get through the last of whatever it may be I am doing, but also has taught me to balance other things in my life. At first I was loyal to 3-4 days a week. I quickly started to see results so I slowly started to work towards 5-6 days a week. Thats how much I enjoy it. The fun of it is the changing of a workout, basically never doing the same workout twice, gives me something to look forward to and makes it fun. Going in and knowing that my workout is planned and that I have an amazing coach there to support and teach is key. Dave and Barb have had a tremendous impact on my life and are so supportive. Not to mention all the wonderful people that I have met and the support that we all give to each other is so good for the soul. I have also been inspired to focus on good nutrition with all my hard work. Once again, total life changing. Working hard, loving something, and seeing results, makes you not want to fuel yourself with garbage. At 35 years old I am currently stronger then ever and in the best shape I have ever been in. CrossFit has helped me discover that I can be stronger than I thought and that working out can be a lot different than you think. I am hoping to become Level 1 certified in the coming year; something that I never would have thought I would be working towards." |
