I’ve spent my share of hours a day at the local Globo Gyms and saw some results. When I heard of CrossFit and the types of workouts and lifts they do, I had this idea it was too intense and it was a little intimidating. After four months of talking myself in and out of the idea of trying it, I stepped out of my comfort zone and tried it for a week straight. I was immediately hooked. Beyond the results, which there are plenty, I’ve found a new family. The CrossFit atmosphere is unlike anything I’ve been part of. We support and cheer each other on, in our accomplishments and in our defeats. Everyone struggles and the friends I’ve made make working out more fun then I’ve have ever thought it could be.
