Meet Carols & Jenny, our January 2017 Athletes of the Month!!
Carols & Jenny have been members with us for almost 6 months and have made SO much progress since joining!! They’ve been disciplined and consistent, attending at least 4 or 5 times each week. Sometimes early AM before work, and sometimes in the evening, but they’ve made no excuses! They’re an awesome part of our community & we’re so glad to have them!
Jenny was a little hesitant to add more weight to that barbell at first, but now she is falling in love with lifting! And Carlos may not speak a ton of English, but thankfully, movement is a universal language and he’s picked right up!! Carlos has lost about 20lbs since starting and continues to hit PRs on his lifts! So fun and inspiring to watch these two on their journey to a healthier and more fit lifestyle!
Keep up the great work guys…the best is yet to come!! Read more about Carols & Jenny below!

- What do you hope to achieve through CrossFit? We hope to become stronger and healthier overall.
- What is your favorite CF exercise? Deadlifts are for sure my favorite!
- What CF exercise do you least like? I could name a few… but I’ll just stick with DU and turkish get ups.
- What would you tell someone considering trying CFP? Just come in and give it a try!! It may not be easy but the results are so worth it. There’s also nothing like finishing a workout and realizing you did something you never thought possible.
