In high school I was always active and played sports. After high school I found myself gaining weight and ended up with Type 2 Diabetes. I knew that I needed to make a change, so I changed my lifestyle to reflect healthier living. I started with obstacle course racing and weight training with hopes that it would help my diabetes diagnosis. About 5 years ago I walked into a CrossFit gym to learn how to climb a rope for the obstacle course racing and fell in love with the energy and vibe of CrossFit. I knew not only that I wanted to do be a part of it, but I also wanted to help others understand the goals they had were achievable. This inspired me to combine the two things I love, weight training and CrossFit style workouts, which resulted in a hybrid fitness that everyone can do. This started as a small group and has now grown into the gym we have today, where my wife and I, along with our team, are able to change people's lives. We feel incredibly lucky to be able to share our passion with others.
