Why did you join CrossFit?

After working out for years doing various classes, videos, running etc, I began this circuit class led by a now CF-L1. The classes became more and more CrossFit-ish as time went on which led me to discover CrossFit 1926. My first class, the Murph which was the hardest yet most rewarding thing I had accomplished in my fitness life, had me hooked! 

 

As I began attending more regularly I could also see the carryover in my professional career as a PTA. Working in a sports-based outpatient clinic I have had the opportunity to assist numerous athletes to return to sport after injury. CrossFit has broadened my base of knowledge of human movement and the capabilities of the human body. 

 

Why do you want me to join CrossFit?

Seeing the improvement in strength and stamina since I began, and knowing the lifelong benefits of consistent and varied fitness is the main reason everyone should do CrossFit! To be able to function independently longer in life is another reason. In my career, I see very often the effects of a sedentary lifestyle and I strive to prevent that in everyone!
