In general, what is your athletic background? Primarily Equestrian & Snowboarding - but growing up I dabbled in literally every single sport or hobby I could find.
How did you learn about CrossFit Kalamazoo? My husband Jason, who dragged me along kicking and screaming!
How has CrossFit Kalamazoo changed your life, lifestyle, and level of fitness? Toward the end of college I had fallen into an incredibly sedentary lifestyle. Since joining CrossFit I’d have to say the best change has been feeling able; being able to do more and proving that my body is physically capable of a lot more than I would have thought possible.
List short/long term goals you would like to accomplish through CrossFit Kalamazoo: Short Term, I’d like to get an unassisted strict pull-up under my belt and figure out double-unders. Long Term, I’d like to deadlift over 300#, and increase endurance and intensity in the longer WODS and running.
What do you like most about CrossFit Kalamazoo? Honestly, the people; but since that seems to be everyone’s answer… I’d have to say the universal nature of the program. There is a serious misconception that you have to be in peak physical shape to do CrossFit, when in actuality the program is probably one of the most universal in the way in can be scaled and modified for virtually any ability.
