How long have you been doing CrossFit? (Since Month, Year): August 2024
How did you first discover CrossFit and what made you decide to start?
I was watching a Netflix show called Physical 100 and discovered CrossFit because the winner of the show was a CrossFitter.
Tell us about your fitness/sports background:
I did light workouts here and there, for example going to a conventional gym & Barre classes. But nothing really significant before CrossFit.
What sorts of positive changes (mental, physical, emotional) have you noticed in your life since getting involved at No Excuses?
I now see my body more from a functional lens instead of aesthetic standards. I love feeling & looking stronger!
Who or what keeps you coming back and motivated?
I love working out with my gym friends! Also my husband Kevin keeps me motivated.
In what other ways do you use your fitness?
It helps me to feel motivated and makes me feel like I can do anything with practice! It keeps me looking forward to a new challenge everyday!
